God Save Me But Don’t Drown Me Out

Verse 1:
D       A       Gbm7   E
Calm me down, before I sleep
       D       A          Gbm7      E
'Cause I don't know where I've just been
        D       E        Gbm7 E
And the morning seems so far away
        D          E           Gbm7  E
And the drugs just hit, so I'm wide awake

Chorus:
          Gbm7
Not gonna waste my life
       E                   D
'Cause I've been xxxxxx up
          A
'Cause it doesn't matter
   Gbm7
So waste my time
    E                  D
And God save all of us
        A
And the walls, they'll shatter
    Gbm7
And I won't let my
E            D
Insecurities
             A
Define who I am, I am
          Gbm7
Not gonna waste my life

Take a breath and try to think straight
               D              A       Gbm7    E
'Cause there's so much pressure on my xxxxxx' brain
       D          E               Gbm7   E
And my blood runs thin 'cause I'm off my face

And my shoulders weigh more than I can take (I can't xxxxxxx take it!)

Define who I am, I am
