Em C D

Em
i was born inside a small town ,
Em
i’ve lost that state of mind
C
learned to sing inside the lord’s house
D
but stopped at the age of nine
G Em
i forget when i get awards
Em
now the wave i had to ride
C
the paving stones i played upon
D
they kept me on the grind
G Em
so blame it on the pain
Em
that blessed me with the life
C
friends and family filled with envy
D
when they should be filled with pride
G Em
and when the world’s against me
Em
is when i really come alive
C
and everyday that satan tempts me ,
D
i try to take it in my stride
G Em
you know that i’ve got whisky
Em
with white lines and smoke in my lungs
C
i think life has got to the point
D
i know without it’s no fun
G Em
i need to get in the right mind and clear myself up
C
instead , i look in the mirror
D
questioning what i’ve become
G Em
i guess it’s a stereotypical day for someone like me
C D
without a nine – to – five job or an uni degree
G Em
to be caught up in the trappings of the industry
C
they showed me the locked doors
D
i find another use of key , and you’ll see

( chorus )
C G D
i’m well aware of certain things
Am C
that can destroy a man like me
G D B7 Em
but with that said give me one more . . higher

C D Em
another one to take the sting away
C D Em
i Am happy on my own , so here i’ll stay
C D Em
save your loving arms for a rainy day
C D
and i’ll find comfort in my pain eraser

Em
i used to think that nothing could be better
Em
than touring the world with my songs
C
i chased the pictured perfect life ,
D
i think they painted it wrong
G Em
i think that money
Em
is the root of evil and fame is hell
C
relationships and hearts
D
you fixed , they break as well
G Em
and ain’t nobody wanna see you down in the dumps
C
because you’re living your dream , man ,
D
his shit should be fun
G Em
please know that i’m not trying to preach
Em
like i’m reverend run
C
i beg you , don’t be disappointed
D
with the man i’ve become
Em
our conversations with my father on the A14
C
age twelve telling me
D
i’ve gotta chase those dreams
G Em
now i’m playing for the people ,
Em
dad , and they know me
C
with my beat and small guitar
D
wearing the same old jeans
G Em
wembley stadium crowd
Em
two hundred and forty thousand
C
i may have grown up
D
but i hope that damien’s proud
G Em
and to the next generation , inspiration’s allowed
C
the world may be filled with hate
D
but keep erasing it now , somehow
