Chorus:
Bm               D      Bm

Bb                    G
  I wear the scars to show my shame
Bm               D             Bm
What should I do what should I do
Bb                           G

Verse 1:
Bm D     A   G    Bm   D
I  can't see past this chance
    A     G               Bm
For us to reconcile these doubts
        D         A
They've all gone on 
            G
for far too long
             Bm
Yeah it goes on and 
       D
on and on and on
A             G
On and on and on and on


(Repeat Chorus)

Verse 2:
Bm   D   A     G   Bm   D
Just not built for this role
    A       G                 Bm
And all the time much better spent
       D         A              G
But it all drags on for far too long
             Bm
And it drags on and 
       D
on and on and on
A             G
On and on and on and on


(Repeat Chorus)
