Intro: Abm Db Gb B Bb

Verse 1:
 Abm                         Db
I cry at the start of every movie
   Gb                          B       Bb
I guess 'cause I wish I was making things too
    Esus4               E        Esus4  E
But I'm working for the knife

Verse 2:
 Abm                          Db
I used to think I would tell stories
     Gb                    B         Bb
But nobody cared for the stories I had about
 Esus4       E
No good guys

Verse 3:
 Gb                  B
I always knew the world moves on
     Gb                     B          Bb
I just didn't know it would go without me
   Abm                       E
I start the day high and it ends so low
        Gb                  B       Bb
'Cause I'm working for the knife

Instrumental: Abm Db Gb B E A

Verse 4:
   Abm                    Db
I used to think I'd be done by 20
    Gb                             B
Now at 29 the road ahead appears the same
        Bb               B             Bb
Though maybe at 30 I'll see a way to change
      Esus4              E
That I'm living for the knife

Verse 5:
  Gb                   B
I always thought the choice was mine
    Gb                    B        Bb
And I was right but I just chose wrong
    Abm                    E
I start the day lying and end with the truth
    Gb                  B        Bb
That I'm dying for the knife

Outro: Abm E Gb B
