Key: A
[Verse 1]
A A7
Time to tie myself down to the train track
A6
Gonna relax, and try to explain that I rarely feel alive
A
Unless I'm running for my life
A A7
Cause I'm over monsters under the bed
A6
But I got suspicion in my head
A
That I've got the cure, but I'm not so sure that I've got the cure
A A7
So when I hear that whistle blow
A6 A F D F D
That's when I know it's time to go
A
All I can do is run
A7
All I can do is run
A6 A
All I can do is run
A
Someone tell me where to
A7
Someone tell me what from
A6
All I can do is run
A A7
Time to tie myself down to the train track
A6
Gonna relax, and try to explain that I rarely feel alive
A
Unless I'm running for my life
A A7
Cause I'm over monsters under the bed
A6
But I got suspicion in my head
A
That I've got the cure, but I'm not so sure that I've got the cure
[Verse 2]
A Em
I can remember the days in my life
D A
When my future looked bright back before mom had died
A Em
Before I heard dad coughing up blood in his room
D A
And the doctor said "Son, you'll be joining Him soon"
A Em
Everything changed, what was bright turned to bleak
D A
Cause everyone seemed to get sick, 'cept for me
A Em
And my dad's final cough, where they carted me off
D A
They stuck me in hell and they gave me a cross
A D A
And said "Son, the church is all you've got now, got now, son
D
So give your life to God now, God
F#m C#/F A/C#
My son, I know you're scared, I know you're young
B/D#
Just say your prayers tonight
D Dm
Cause nobody's gonna come, cause no one loves an orphan"
