D  XX0232 / XX0233
Am X02210
Em 022000


G		C
On the outside looking in /
	Am	
 I've never been able to crack the code / 
		      D
To break the secret spell / 
G			C		
That would open up the door and let me in / 
	Am					D
To everything I've been looking for so hard I've never seen 
Em			C
But I feel my strength returning tonight / 
	Am					D
Its flowing from	 the purest well to ever give water / 
Em				C
Out into an ocean where the sharks are circling /
	Am					D
 a carnival of counterfeits has no room for something real

G C Am D
Em C Am D	G

G				C
arrogance and ego wrapped around every word / 
Am						D
shouted from the pulpit as a judgment to control / 
G					C					
these were my roots my seed was thrown in shallow soil / 
	Am					D	
I grew into the thorn bushes to be scorched by the sun /
Em			C				
 but I feel the gravel move beneath my feet / 
	Am					D
the smell of the gasoline mixed in with the trees / 	
Em				C			
when my faith is strong I know my strength / 
	Am					     D		
the threats will be screamed when the vultures fell threatened
 								
G C Am D
Em C Am D	G

G		       C		
so I'll open up the door and let you in / 
Am					      D	
I want to break the alabaster smell the sweet perfume / 
G					C			
and when the bottle is broken I'll have nothing left to give / 
Am					           D		
I'll know I'll already have everything worth having / 
Em			C					
but I feel my strength returning tonight / 
     Am						D	
its flowing from the purest well to ever give water /
Em				C
out into and ocean where the sharks are circling / 
	Am					D	
a carnival of counterfeits want to crucify something real
