Devastation and Reform
by: Relient K

Verse 1:
C#m
Fear can drive stick and it's taking me down this road
B			        C#m
A road down which I swore I'd never go                             
A	      C#m	         
And here I sit thinking of God knows what
E/G# 	       			C#m 	
Afraid to admit I might self-destruct


Pre Chorus:
A		C#m 
So lock the windows and bolt the door
    A			B  	        C  		
Cuz I've got enough problems without creating more


Chorus:
A 		   E
I feel like I was born to devastation and reform
C#m                                    B
Destroying everything I loved and the worst part is                
A			    E		
I pull my heart out, reconstruct and in the end it's nothing but
    F#m                               A
The shell of what I had when I first started


Interlude:  C#m


Verse 2:
E				 B/D#                             E
Usually I'll cause my own first hit it seems to me to be slightly masochistic
NC
But there'd be no story without all this dissension
   Ab             Ab                 C#m        C#m
So I inflict the conflict with the utmost of contemption


(Pre Chorus) (Chorus)

Bridge:
A		E
Thank you God for giving me the insight
C#m       B
So I might make these wrongs right                               
A           E
If and when there ever is a next time
C#m              B
Cuz failure is a blessing in disguise
A                 E
Pull my heart out, reconstruct
C#m		B
And in the end it's nothing but
A                                    B                
The shell of what I had when I first started
F#m                 C#m              D       C#m Ab			 
The shell of what I had when I first started

(Chorus)

Outro:
When I first started
F#m					C#m
The shell of what I had when I first started
