Long Story Short

D*
D Bm G D


[Verse 1]
D
I'm trying to write this
                  Bm
I'll write down everything that was 
going on
                G
I'm not good at talking
        D
So I'm trying to put it in a song
         A                  G     
But you know it's hard to not hurt
      D
 anyone
           A                       
Cause I'm trying to write 
  G                 D
everything that was going on


[Verse 2]
D
I felt like I lost it
                 Bm
I felt that I'd threw it all away
                       G
But as I got up every morning
        D
I just knew there's no other way
        A                 G       
Cause life ain't always running on
             D
 a straight track
        A                  G      
And sometimes you realize there's 
              D
no turning back

[Chorus]
                       G           
And I really tried to fix this, all
       D
 by myself
                  G
The more that I tried it
              D               A   
You know the more I began to fail,
          G
 I lost control
                 D
As I got back home


[Instrumental]
Bm G D


[Verse 3]
D
I got deeper and deeper
           Bm
As I was playing all kind of cons
                   G
Couldn't choose wisely
  D
Between all the rights and wrongs
        A              G          
Cause everyday I was about to get 
         D
things clear
     A               G         
But on and on I was held back by 
      D
fear


[Chorus]
                       G           
And I really tried to fix this, all
       D
 by myself
                  G
The more that I tried it
              D               A   
You know the more I began to fail,
          G
 I lost control
                 Bm
As I got back home


[Bridge]
                   G               
This thing came down like a house 
      D
of cards
It was more than clear that I had 
           Bm
gone too far
             G                 
Leaving behind all those mental 
       D
scars

As I got caught by that thought that
 I can't really


[Chorus]
G                  D
Fix this, all by myself
                 G
The more that I tried it
               D               A  
You know the more I began to fail 
            G
I lost control
                  D  D  D*
As I got back home
