    Everybody Breaks A Glas...

A5                       E5    A5
It's not a solid, not a soft thing
A5                          E5      A5
To pull the wool up like a smokescreen
A5                     G5  A5 
Nobody does it like a prophet
A5                           G5     A5
It's gone before you know you lost it
A5                               E5   A5
There are reasons you keep your hands tied
A5                                  E5     A5  
There's certain things you shouldn't have tried
A5                      G5      A5
So if you gotta tell me something
A5                      G5    A5
You better go from the beginning

F5     G5             A5 
  We all forget to sleep
  C5                 F5
And crash at someone's feet
G5          A5       C5
Everybody skips a beat
F5    G5             A5
  We let the chances pass
   C5              F5
The few we held so fast
G5           A5       C5 
Everybody breaks a glass

A5                          E5  A5  
And here I'm standing in the middle
A5                      E5    A5
Not just a little but a hill full
A5                    G5     A5
Wondering how I got a head cold
A5                       G5   A5  
Wishing I didn't know what I know
A5                       E5  A5
It's never been about the money
A5                       E5   A5 
We're worthy or we are not worthy
A5                     G5     A5  
However much you got on your plate
A5                       G5   A5 
You're as good as you reciprocate

F5   G5            A5     
We all pretend to keep
C5                    F5
Our tongue out of our cheek
G5               A5       C5
Everyone's the fool they seek
F5    G5              A5
  We all go off the track
   C5                F5   
And feel for our way back
G5          A5       C5
Everybody breaks a glass
F5   G5         A5       F5
   Everybody breaks a glass

A5          E5    A5

A5          E5    A5

A5          E5    A5

A5          E5    A5

A5
Shook

Scared to look

At peers when they peer back
E5      A5
  It's weird how we fear that

It's weird how we wear a mask
    E5                          A5       
It appears when we fear our own tears more than tear gas

My team's struggling in years past
G5              A5
Looking to draft beer to bring cheers back

But then the drinking game's finished
                      G5   
No Guinness, just a clear glass
            A5 
Seeing our real image mirrored back
                                   E5
The places that we to cope, it's so strange
                 A5
When we?re older folks it don?t change

Trying to hang, we don?t know the ropes
                   E5                         A5
When we fall we got more than our shoulders broke
    
It's no game

That's why we overdose on cocaine
G5                     A5
Get our brains comatose, there's no blame

If you've ever known shame, known pain
      G5                               A5
Known days when we really don't feel okay


F5     G5               A5
  Somewhere perfection lies
C5                   F5 
But not for you and I
G5          A5       C5
Everybody trips sometime
F5      G5                A5 
  When cities fall like shacks
C5                F5
Walls eventually crack
G5          A5      F5 
Everybody breaks a glass
