[Intro]
Am G C F
Am G C F

[Verse 1]

Am G C F Am
Sometimes I wish I was the hero in your story
G C F
I’d save you from yourself
Am G C F
And sometimes I wish I could take somethin’
Am G C F
A little bit stronger to drown you out
Am G
Were you ever happy
F F G Am
Or did I read you all wrong?
Am G
Were you still in mending
F F
While I left your lights on?
G Am
Lights on, lights on, lights on

[Chorus]
Am G F
All this time
Am
I’ve been wastin’ my mind
G F
I’ve been wastin’ my mind
Am G F
All this time
Am
I’ve been wastin’ my mind
G F
I’ve been wastin’ my mind

[Post-Chorus]
Am G C F Am
Sometimes I wish I was the hero in your story
G C F
I’d save you from yourself

[Verse 2]
Am G
You’re keeping a straight face
F F G Am
So what am I to do?
Am G
And when you look in the mirror
F F G Am
Am I still looking at you?
Am G F
Taking my all, you were drowning us dead
F G Am
‘Cause ever since the fall you’ve been hidin’ what you meant
Am G F
And I wish I saw all the doubt that you felt
F G Am
‘Cause now you’re out, now you’re out

[Chorus]
Am G F
All this time
Am
I’ve been wastin’ my mind
G F
I’ve been wastin’ my mind
Am G F
All this time
Am
I’ve been wastin’ my mind
G F
I’ve been wastin’ my mind
Am G F
All this time
Am
I’ve been wastin’ my mind
G F
I’ve been wastin’ my mind
Am G F
All this time
Am
I’ve been wastin’ my mind
G F
I’ve been wastin’ my mind

[Outro]
Am G C F Am
Sometimes I wish I was the hero in your story
G C F
I’d save you from yourself
Am G C F
And sometimes I wish I could take something
Am G C F
A little bit stronger to drown you out
