I noticed there are no tabs with the lyrics and chords placed properly. This
is for all the singers out there. I know it helps me to put everything
together this way. Enjoy! Comments and Ratings Appreciated! Thanks, Johnny!

[Verse]
C D Am
I hurt myself today
C D Am
To see if I still feel
C D Am
I focus on the pain
C D Am7
The only thing that's real
C D Am7
The needle tears a hole
C D Am7
The old familiar sting
C D Am7
Try to kill it all away
C D G
But I remember everything
[Chorus]
Am7 F
What have I become
C G
My sweetest friend
Am7 F C
Everyone I know goes away
G
In the end
Am7 F
And you could have it all
G
My empire of dirt
Am7 F
I will let you down
G (Am)
I will make you hurt
[Instrumental]

[Verse]
C D Am
I wear this crown of thorns
C D Am
Upon my liar's chair
C D Am
Full of broken thoughts
C D Am
I cannot repair
C D Am
Beneath the stains of time
C D Am
The feelings disappear
C D Am
You are someone else
C D G
I am still right here
[Chorus]
Am7 F
What have I become
C G
My sweetest friend
Am7 F C
Everyone I know goes away
G
In the end
Am7 F
And you could have it all
G
My empire of dirt
Am7 F
I will let you down
G
I will make you hurt
Am7 F
If I could start again
G
A million miles away
Am7 F
I would keep myself
G
I would find a way
