Verse 1:
F                 G7    
 I've given up on giving up slowly
Bb    
 I'm blending in so you won't even know me
Dm7              C                   G7       F     Bb    
 Apart from this whole world that shares my fate
F              G7                     
 This one last bullet you mention
Bb    
 Is this my one last shot at redemption
Dm7             C                        G7      F    Bb    
 Coz I know to live you must give your life away


Pre-Chorus:
               Dm7              Bb             F       C    
 And I've been housing all this doubt and insecurity
               Dm7                Bb                   F                C    
 And I've been locked inside that house all the while you hold the key
               Dm7           Bb                      F             C    
 And I've been dying to get out and that might be the death of me
            G7                                           Bb    
 And even though there's no way of knowing where to go
                C       - chucka-chucka -
 I promise I'm going because...


Chorus:
F C             Bb        C     
 I gotta get out of here
       F                C                Bb               C     
 I'm stuck inside this rut that I fell into by mistake
F C              Bb            C    
 I gotta get out of here
         Dm7              C                    G7            C                   
 And I'm begging you, I'm begging you, I'm begging you to be my escape 


Verse 2:
F                 G7    
 I've given up on doing this alone now
Bb    
 Cause I failed and I'm ready to be shown how
Dm7                 C                      G7      F     Bb    
 You've told me the way, and I'm trying to get there
F                G7    
 And this life sentence that I'm serving
Bb    
 I admit that I'm every bit deserving
Dm7                     C                      G7       F      Bb    
 But the beauty of grace is that it makes life not fair


Pre-Chorus:
               Dm7              Bb             F       C    
 And I've been housing all this doubt and insecurity
               Dm7                Bb                   F                C    
 And I've been locked inside that house all the while you hold the key
               Dm7           Bb                      F             C    
 And I've been dying to get out and that might be the death of me
            G7                                           Bb    
 And even though there's no way of knowing where to go
                C       - chucka-chucka -
 I promise I'm going because...


Chorus:

F C              Bb         C     
 I gotta get out of here
         F                     C              Bb                     C    
 Coz I'm afraid that this complacency is something I can't shake, yeah
F C             Bb          C    
 I gotta get out of here
         Dm7              C                    Bb                  C                   
 And I'm begging you, I'm begging you, I'm begging you to be my escape 


Bridge:
Dm7             Bb    
 I am a hostage to my own humanity
F                             G7    
 Self-detained and forced to live in this mess I've made
Dm7                         Bb    
 And all I'm asking is for you to do what you can with me
F                           G7    
 But I can't ask you to give what you already gave

 

Pre-Chorus:
               Dm7              Bb             F       C    
 And I've been housing all this doubt and insecurity
               Dm7                Bb                   F                C    
 And I've been locked inside that house all the while you hold the key
               Dm7           Bb                      F             C    
 And I've been dying to get out and that might be the death of me
            G7                                           Bb    
 And even though there's no way of knowing where to go
                C       - chucka-chucka -
 I promise I'm going because...


Chorus:
F C             Bb        C     
 I gotta get out of here
       F                C                Bb               C     
 I'm stuck inside this rut that I fell into by mistake
F C              Bb            C    
 I gotta get out of here
         Dm7              C                    G7            C                   
 And I'm begging you, I'm begging you, I'm begging you to be my escape


Outro - on piano -:
Cm7 Bb Ab    - 1x for acoustic version, 2x for original version -

F           G7            Bb    
 I fought you for so long, I should have let you win
 Dm7           C                     Bb     
 Oh how we regret those things we do
F         G7            Bb                         Dm7    
 And all I was trying to do was save my own skin
    C                   Bb     
 Oh-o, but so were you

Outro:
   So    were    you
