Distracted

                    C              
She fell down the stairs and opened
      F
 her eyes
               C
He’s over the edge this time
      C                   
He’s all wound up from the 
   F
nightmares
      C                 G
They make him lose his mind
         F        Am  G
She’s distracted,
F                      C   
lost the sense of the urgency 
G     F
tonight,
                  Am   G      C
lost sense of the urgency tonight

[Verse]

                 C               
For a couple of years she covered 
      G
her eyes
                    C
And she’d give him hell sometimes
     C                  F         
The makeup covered the bruises, 
   C                G
but somehow made her blind
            F      Am  G
She got distracted,
F                      C   G     
lost the sense of the urgency in 
 F
life,
                  Am   G      C
lost sense of the urgency in life
                 Am                
Can she save herself, save her from
      G
 the nightmare,
                   F         G 
save her from the nightmare he’s 
     C
become

She looks up the stairs, slips out 
the door
N.C.
The floor creaks so loud at night
     C
The keys fumbling in the ignition
N.C.
This ride could turn the tide
               F      Am  G
While he’s distracted
F              C      G  
she finds the urgent need to 
        F
survive,
               Am     G          C
she finds the urgent need to survive
                 Am                
Can she save herself, save her from

 the nightmare,

save her from the nightmare he’s

become
               Am              
She’s holding here, it’s tiring 
     G
pretending
                       F       G  
She’s tired from just waiting for 
         Am  F  C  G
it to end

[Bridge]

Am
She’s been hanging round
F                   C     
on this side of town missing 
             G
opportunities
Am                        F  
She wants to brace herself just 
                 C                 
enough to sing a little louder 
      G
every day, yeah

[Interlude]

Am F C G

C                          G
....A little louder every day

[Verse]

                  C                
She runs up the stairs and it 
       F
floods her eyes
                   C
She’s smiling for real this time
    C                   F         
No makeup to cover the bruises, no
       C                    G
 more running through life blind
              F         Am  G
She just got distracted,
F                      C         
but she’s finding the will and 
    G             F
the strength to survive,
                  Am          
she’s finding the will and the 
   G             C
strength to survive
                     Am         
And it saves her from, saves her 
           G
from the nightmare,
                    F         G   
saves her from the nightmare he’s 
       C
become
                   Am
She’s holding here,
                   G
she’s tired of pretending
               F       G           C
Tired of just waiting for it to end
