Intro: Am7 C F F

Verse 1:
    Am7                             C
You never know a good thing 'til it passes
        F                                   G
'Til it lights you up and leaves you in its ashes
            Am7                         C                    F   G
It's always hiding money underneath the mattress for a rainy day
      Am7                             C
And I wish that I could find a way to slow down
         F                                          G
Help the kid I used to know maybe find his way back out
        Am7                                       C
All the callous of the world has dragged his soul down
           F
But who is to blame?

Chorus:
        Am7                     C
I wanna sing all the words of a sinner
        F
I wanna live by the words of a saint
            G                         Am7
Give all my love to the world like my mother
            F
Finding the pleasure in the pain
           Am7                 C
I want the devil to yell on my shoulder
           F
I want the angel to call him insane
        G                     Am7
I wanna look at myself in the mirror
            F
Proud of my bruises and my stains

Verse 2:
        Am7                                 C
And I'm trying to make friends with all the anger
     F                                                G
So I go outside 'cause maybe I could walk off all the hurt
                                       Am7
You know pale skin always tans after a sunburn
   Dm7        F
So life is good

Chorus:
        Am7                     C
I wanna sing all the words of a sinner
        F
I wanna live by the words of a saint
C           G                         Am7
Give all my love to the world like my mother
            F
Finding the pleasure in the pain
           Am7                 C
I want the devil to yell on my shoulder
           F
I want the angel to call him insane
        G                     Am7
I wanna look at myself in the mirror
            F
Proud of my bruises and my stains

Post-chorus:
         G
Mm, mm-mm

Am              F
Oh, Proud of my bruises and my stains

Outro:
 G            Am7        F
(Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh) oh-oh, oh-oh
G              Am           C          F
Maybe I'm not, not what you want me to be (oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)
G                         Am7        Dm7          F
Maybe there's more to the story that you'll never see (oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)
           G                   Am           F
I'll never run with the sinners, and I'm no saint (oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)
G                    Am           Dm7         F
I gotta learn how to live with my bruises and stains (oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)
    G                    Am           C           F
Oh, I gotta learn how to live with my bruises and stains

I gotta learn how to live with my bruises and stains
