Verse 1:
              Dbm
Here's my confession
            A
I've got a death wish
            E
I'm in the fast lane
            Ab
Addicted to excess

           Dbm
Living my best life
          A
I was on top right
             E
Sipping the limelight
              Ab
a deer in the headlights

Pre-chorus:
    Dbm                    A
My future used to shine as bright as a diamond
 E
Where did time go?
          Ab
I was so high, it was frightening
  Dbm                           A                E
I know I messed up, but there's no use in crying
           Ab
(No use in crying)
           Dbm
Oh my dear Lord

Chorus:
                  A                     E
I've been running wild, had a good time
                 Ab
But I can't stop now
            Dbm
(Oh my dear Lord)
        A                   E
Over my head in a landslide
                 Ab
Can you pull me out?
           Dbm  A
Oh my dear Lord
           E    Ab
Oh my dear Lord
           Dbm
Oh my dear Lord


                  A                     E
I've been running wild, had a good time
                 Ab
But I can't stop now
           Dbm    A
Oh my dear Lord
                E     Ab
Oou, oh my dear Lord

Verse 2:
             Dbm
I was a good guy
               A
But I was the worst type
           E
Give me an inch, man
                Ab
And I'll take a mile
             Dbm
I'm walking back now
              A
Past all the fires
           E
Trying to find out
                  Ab
Why I grabbed the lighter

Pre-chorus:
    Dbm                    A
My future used to shine as bright as a diamond
 E
Where did time go?
          Ab
I was so high, it was frightening
  Dbm                           A                E
I know I messed up, but there's no use in crying
           Ab
(No use in crying)
           Dbm
Oh my dear Lord

Chorus:
                  A                     E

But I can't stop now
            Dbm
(Oh my dear Lord)
        A                   E
Over my head in a landslide
                 Ab
Can you pull me out?

I've been running wild, had a good time
                 Ab
But I can't stop now
           Dbm
Oh my dear Lord
   A    E
Yeah
     Ab
Yeah-eh
             Dbm
(Oh my dear Lord)
    A   E
Yeah

Yeah-eh

Bridge:
Dbm                   A                           E
Been a tyrant, been a pusher, pushing my disease
                           Ab
Breaking bones and taking everything in front of me
Dbm                               A                       E
Priests and beggars looking up to heaven from their knees
Ab
Is anyone listening?
(nc)
Is anyone listening
(nc)
Is anyone listening?

Chorus:
           Dbm
Oh my dear Lord

But I can't stop now
            Dbm
(Oh my dear Lord)
        A                   E
Over my head in a landslide

Can you pull me out?

Oh my dear Lord (Yeah)
