i don’t care how long it takes ,

[ verse 1 ]
G D Cadd9
out of everyone ,
i should have known how ,
G D Cadd9
knots can come undone ,
Em7
i should grown but ,
D Cadd9
i was on the run ,
Cadd9
and the walls were crumbling ,
( Cadd9 )
and i was tumbling .

[ verse 2 ]
should have just fell down ,
instead of making ,
such a hole in the ground ,
there’s no mistaking ,
i will wear the crown ,
i’m the lord and master ,
of this disaster .

[ chorus ]

[ bridge ]
Cadd9 G D G
any – – one can walk on water ,
Cadd9 G D ( strum twice )
just before they drown ,
Cadd9 G D G Cadd9 G F
any – – one can talk but they got their story upside – down .

[ verse 3 ]
dust coats the floor ,
with every move we ,
seem to find more .
i’m out to prove that ,
what we’re working for ,
is worth defending ,
and all this mending .

[ chorus ]

[ coda ]
G Em7 Cadd9
i’ll give it back to you ,
G Em7 Cadd9
i’ll give it back to you ,
( Cadd9 ) G
i’ll give it back to you .
