[Verse]
C5
Waking up drunk as the sea shouts harder
G5                                                F5
Trying to wake me up but there's nothing left to say
          C5
I said it all in a distant memory
C5
Image of a son with an absent father
G5                                               F5
Who wouldn't believe it would take it's toll on me
    C5
The payback is never ending

[Pre-Chorus]
G5                     C5
  If your mind's made up
       G5
Can it ever change? - A vicious circle
  F5
A halo around the head

[Chorus]
F5                C5                 G5
Congratulations!   It seems you've won again
F5                      C5
Maybe this time you'll learn:
   G5
It doesn't change a thing
        F5       C5          G5
If it's war you seek, then seek no more than me
    D5             F5           C5
But even the blackest heart still beats

[Interlude]

[Verse]
Starving for a place to conceal this murder
Driving just to stay awake with a broken radio
The voices come again to soothe me
Crashing in the rain of a wasted summer
Ever since the clouds derailed all my makeshift confidence
What a brief unhappy life

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

[Verse]
I can handle life's discomforts
Confidence and all is understood
You're gonna grow old one day
So light the wick and burn the candle
Falling over, catching flame to me and everyone I've known to ashes.

[Bridge]
F5                C5                G5
Congratulations!   You fought and won today
F5                      C5             G5 (one strum )
Maybe this time you'll learn, you're on your own.

[Chorus]

[Outro]
      D4             F           C (one strum , ring out)
Yeah, even the blackest heart still beats.
