==VERSE==
Bm        A          F#m                 D
Giving up everything, my hungry ghost of hopefulness
Bm        A          F#m                 D         F#m   D  F#m  D
Giving up everything, not haunted by wanting this
Bm        A          F#m                 D
Giving up everything, the fortune I was saving
Bm        A          F#m                 D         F#m   D  F#m  D
Giving up everything, I mercy-killed my craving
Bm        A          F#m                 D
Giving up everything, I've opened up my eyes for this
Continúa después del anuncio
Bm        A          F#m                       D
Giving up everything, see the whole magnificent emptiness
`
`
==BRIDGE==
     F#m              D
Gave what I want for how it is,
         F#m                 D
for the stone inside and the bitterness,
        F#m               D
for the sweetness at the core of it

Bm   A   F#m   D (x2)
`
`
==VERSE==
Bm        A          F#m                 D
Giving up everything, the master plan, the scheming
Bm        A          F#m                 D
Giving up everything, my cursed search for meaning
Bm        A          F#m                          D
Giving up everything, the compass and the map I was reading
  F#m               D       F#m           D         Bm  (Break)
The hinterlands I'm leaving,  I'm finally leaving behind
`
`
==OUTRO==
Bm        A          F#m                       D
Giving up everything, the big to-do, the hullabaloo,
    F#m                 D
the tug-of-war for some twisted truth.
     F#m              D
For the everlasting ache of it
     F#m              D
no longer slave, not chained to it
     F#m              D
no gate, no guard, no keeper,
     F#m              D       F#m   D
no guru, master, teacher
     F#m              D
See the slow-receding faces
Bm  (stop)
dissolve to black, no traces.
