Verse 1:
E
There's no way out of an angry crowd without steppin' on some toes

They'll scream your name 'til the lights go out then they'll feed you to the wolves

It's hard to say who you'll be when they let those big red curtains close
E
You know this 'cause you told me so

Pre-chorus:
                E
I bet you forgot
                             A
Black heels in the summertime
                                          A
Dad's bad, cookin' though, you'd be polite
                                                B9
Honey, now you got a look that I can't recognize
                                E
You pulled me aside and you said

Chorus:
E
To know me is to hate me
                           A
Is to hate what I've become

It's to watch me as I'm fallin'
                             Dbm
From that laddеr's last rung
                             B
It's to feel it like a secret
                        A
You can't keep in, I'm not thе way I was

I'm not the way I was

Post-chorus:
E
Mm, mm-mm-mm, hmm-mm, mm

Verse 2:
E
Were you freed within, did you leave your skin?

Are you tethered in your doubt?

Have you breathed it in 'til it's medicine that you cannot live without?
E
'Cause you came back home a xxxxxx' alien and we're stuck here on the ground

Call your mom back, kid, before the high comes down

Pre-chorus:
                 E
'Cause you forgot
                             A
Black heels in the summertime
                                   A
Dirt road smoking on a Friday night
                                                B9
Honey, now you got a look that I don't recognize
                                E
You pulled me aside and you said

Chorus:

To know me is to hate me
                           A
Is to hate what I've become

It's to watch me as I'm fallin'
                            Dbm
From that ladder's last rung
                          B
It's to feel it like a secret
                        A
You can't keep in, I'm not the way I was
                     E
I'm not the way I was

But to feel it, to see it
                          A
The look in all their eyes

Is to breathe in, to be in
                               Dbm
The good grace of that Godlight
                         B
It's to have it in your hands
                          A
The one thing you wanted all your life
               E
"It's all mine"

Bridge:
                                                    A
It's a hole I can't fill, it's a curse I can't break
                                                   Dbm
And I gave my soul to it, and I cannot be reclaimed
                   B                  A
I was younger then, I was younger then
         E
I was young

Chorus:

To know me is to hate me
                           A
Is to hate what I've become

It's to watch me as I'm fallin'
                            Dbm
From that ladder's last rung
                         B
It's to feel it like a secret
                        A
You can't keep in, I'm not the way I was
                     E
I'm not the way I was

But to feel it, to see it
                          A
The look in all their eyes

Is to breathe in, to be in
                               Dbm
The good grace of that Godlight

It's to have it in your hands
                          A
The one thing you wanted all your life
               E
"It's all mine"

Outro:

And to feel it, to see it
                         A
The look in all your eyes

Is to breathe in, to be in
                               Dbm
The good grace of this Godlight
                       B
It's to have it in your hands
                        A
The one thing I wanted all my life

It's all mine
