Everybody Breaks A Glass

Am Em Am
it’s not a solid , not a soft thing
Am Em Am
to pull the wool up like a smokescreen
Am G Am
nobody does it like a prophet
Am G Am
it’s gone before you know you lost it
Am Em Am
there are reasons you keep your hands tied
Am Em Am
there’s certain things you shouldn’t have tried
Am G Am
so if you gotta tell me something
Am G Am
you better go from the beginning

F G Am
we all forget to sleep
C F
and crash at someone’s feet
G Am C
everybody skips a beat
F G Am
we let the chances pass
C F
the few we held so fast
G Am C
everybody breaks a glass

Am Em Am
and here i’m standing in the middle
Am Em Am
not just a little but a hill full
Am G Am
wondering how i got a head cold
Am G Am
wishing i didn’t know what i know
Am Em Am
it’s never been about the money
Am Em Am
we’re worthy or we are not worthy
Am G Am
however much you got on your plate
Am G Am
you’re as good as you reciprocate

F G Am
we all pretend to keep
C F
our tongue out of our cheek
G Am C
everyone’s the fool they seek
F G Am
we all go off the track
C F
and feel for our way back
G Am C
everybody breaks a glass
F G Am F
everybody breaks a glass

Am Em Am

Am
shook

scared to look

at peers when they peer back
Em Am
it’s weird how we fear that

it’s weird how we wear a mask
Em Am
it appears when we fear our own tears more than tear gas

my team’s struggling in years past
G Am
looking to draft beer to bring cheers back

but then the drinking game’s finished
G
no guinness , just a clear glass
Am
seeing our real image mirrored back
Em
the places that we to cope , it’s so strange
Am
when were older folks it dont change

trying to hang , we dont know the ropes
Em Am
when we fall we got more than our shoulders broke

it’s no game

that’s why we overdose on cocaine
G Am
get our brains comatose , there’s no blame

if you’ve ever known shame , known pain
G Am
known days when we really don’t feel okay

F G Am
somewhere perfection lies
C F
but not for you and i
G Am C
everybody trips sometime
F G Am
when cities fall like shacks
C F
walls eventually crack
G Am F
everybody breaks a glass
