Standard tuning, no capo

G5                          E5                        C5
I went out looking for the answers and never left my town. 
                    G5                                  D5
I?m no good at understanding, but I?m good at standing ground. 
 G5                         E5                      
And when I asked a corner preacher I couldn?t hear him for my 
C5                       G5                           D5       
youth. Some people get religion some people get the truth. I
               C5                      G5
never get the truth, I never get the truth.

Chorus:
B5                            C5                                G5
I know the darkness falls on you. And it?s just a point of view
                            E5                          C5
When you?re outside looking in you belong to someone and when 
                     A5
you feel like giving in and the coming of the end, like your 
                    C5 (Strum )            G5
heart can break in two, someone loves you.


G5                         E5                                C5
I lay this suitcase on my chest so I can feel somebody?s weight. 
                 G5                             D5
And I lay you to rest just to feel a give and take? 
G5                        E5                             C5
I got a new interpretation and it?s a better point of view, you 
                    G5                              D5          
were looking for a landslide I was looking out for you, I was 
                 C5                               G5
looking out for you, someone?s looking out for you

Chorus:
B5                            C5                                G5
I know the darkness falls on you. And it?s just a point of view
                            E5                          C5
When you?re outside looking in you belong to someone and when 
                     A5
you feel like giving in and the coming of the end, like your 
                    C5                     G5
heart can break in two, someone loves you.

Bridge
G5 (strum )                     E5 (strum )
I am afraid of crossing lines. I am afraid of flying blind.  

C5 (strum )                  G(Strum )               D5 (strum )to A5
afraid of inquiring minds. Afraid of being left behind. 

G5                             E5                           C5
I close my eyes I think of you, I take a step I think of you, 
                               G5                             D5
I catch my breath I think of you, I cannot rest I think of you

Last Chorus
B5                            C5             
My one and only wrecking ball, and you?re cutting through my 
G5                                   D5                         E5
walls. When you?re outside looking in you belong to someone and 
                          C5                         A5               
when you feel like giving in and the coming of the end, like 
                          C5                    G5
your heart could break in two, someone loves you.
