Em (022000@1)                                                          BmWhat (x24432@1)if I squeeze myself into any shape and I still don't fit?
EmWhat (022000@1)if I bend myself so much that I break and I can't mend it?
D (xx0232@1)                                                              BmWhat (x24432@1)if I burn so bright that the fire goes out and I can't stay lit?
                  CWhat's (x32010@1)the point in it?
Em (022000@1)                                                   BmI (x24432@1)could get good at crying crocodile tears just to get along
Em (022000@1)                                                         BmI (x24432@1)could carry on telling you wanna hear 'til my voice is gone
D (xx0232@1)                                                                  BmBut (x24432@1)if I finally get to the place that I think is home and I don't belong
              CWhat's (x32010@1)the point in it?  Where's the benefit?  When I'm gaining all but I'm losing it

Chorus
            EmIt's (022000@1)not worth having if it's too much to hold
                Bm7You (x20202@1)can dig so deep that you're left with a hole
Em (022000@1)                                                           Bm7Thirsty (x20202@1)in a desert with a bag full of gold
EmDon't (022000@1)wanna end up like pirate bones
Bm7What (x20202@1)I thought was precious was just a pile o' stones
Em (022000@1)                                                                    Bm7I (x20202@1)might have the treasure but I'd be lying alone
                                          EmJust (022000@1)a pile of pirate bones
       Bm7 (x20202@1)                                               EmIf (022000@1)I forfeit my soul it ain't worth having
          Bm7If (x20202@1)it's something I stole it ain't worth having



Verse 2
Em (022000@1)                                                              BmWhat (x24432@1)if I stake everything I am on a dream and it's counterfeit?
Em (022000@1)                                                           BmIf (x24432@1)I reach the end that justifies the means could I live with it?
                  D (xx0232@1)                                                        BmAnd (x24432@1)if it's true that having too much of any good thing could only make me sick
                  CWhat's (x32010@1)the point in it?  Where's the benefit? When I'm gaining all but I'm losing it. 
Oh, oh

Chorus

Verse 3
Am (x02210@1)                                         Em/GIt's (322000@1)not worth that much to me if losing out is what it means
DTo (xx0232@1)swim in shallow victory
CIs (x32010@1)empty, empty
Am (x02210@1)                                    Em/GIt's (322000@1)just not worth the price it's only a fools paradise
          D (xx0232@1)                                      C (x32010@1)                   Bm7 (x20202@1)           
       ~B7
If it's draining every drop of life 'til I'm dry like pirate bones
