D , Bm

E G D
i can name the people that know they don’t know themselves
A G D
without talking to nobody
E G D
i can name the people that know they wanna fix themselves
A G D
without taking my hands out of my pockets

C G
i make these promises but all my promises hurt
D A
it’s like they never get a lift – off
C G
so if i’m being honest with you and it seems like i’m being cruel
D A
at least you didn’t get a rip – off
G
and you know how i feel
D
god i’ve got faith in you
A
but it’s a little too late for goodbyes
G D Bm
good morning , open your eyes

E G D
i can see the tears so long before they know your face
A G D
i can almost draw the lines
E G D
but when you smile , lord it spins me like a ferris wheel
A G D
washed out to sea in your eyes

C G
i make these promises but all my promises hurt
D A
it’s like they never get a lift – off
C G
so if i’m being honest with you and it seems like i’m being cruel
D Bm
at least you didn’t get a rip – off , rip – off
G A
rip – off , rip – off
Bm G
rip – off , rip – off
A
rip – off
E G D
and you know how i feel . . .
A G D D
like a rip off , rip off , rip off
