Verse 1

C                                 Em
Timber shakes these trails they all derail 
                         Am
Phony, false and frail
               G                       C
An empty ocean lost our way with no direction home 
                                      Em
Golden needles names we take in vein 
                     Am
Find it harder to remain 
                                  G  
And nothings sacred still waiting on that explanation 


(Chorus)
 C     
 Right before my eyes
             G 
I saw the whole world lose control 
        Am
The whole world lost control 
        F             G
Before my eyes uh-huh 
C
I fell through the floor 
             G
I couldn't take this anymore 
       Am
I can't take this anymore 
    F               G
It breaks my mind uh-huh 

Verse 2
C                        Em
Hold your dirty hand over the flames 
                         Am
Getting pleasure from the pain
                        G 
Softly screaming the pistol that you raise has spoken 
C                             Em
Golden needles names we take in vein 
               Am
Find it harder to remain 
                               G
Well nothings sacred still waiting on that explanation 

(Chorus) 

Bridge
F                                   Am
Everything I thought I knew fell to the side 
F                                   Am
Time went on and on I couldn't see past my on eyes
          G 
Past my eyes
         Am
Past my eyes
          G
Past my eyes

(Chorus)
