| G  B7  | Em     |


[Verse 1]
G     B7           Em
 I've been through hell
G      B7     Em
 On my way to hell
G       Am            C
 I only fought with myself
C       D7      G
 So I’d have a story to tell


[Verse 2]
G       B7         Em
 Once I cut off my arm
G                B7     Em
 I sewed it back on all wrong
G                    Am      C
 Now I don't have to bend to reach the bottom shelf
C       D7      G           G7
 When I need a story to tell


[Chorus]
    C               D7
The world is always on the brink
    G              Em
And love is dumber than you think
C                D7
Singing songs of death and doom
     G              Em           C    D7
With all the voices inside of you


[Verse 3]
G        B7       Em
 Once I started a war
G            B7       Em
 But I don't fight anymore
G           Am             C
 I held the line until the old oak fell
C             D7           G
 I was left behind with a story to tell


[Chorus]
    C               B7/A
The world is always on the brink
G                  Em
Hearts are smarter than you think
C                B7/A
Writing songs of death and doom
    G              Em           C    D7
For all the voicеs inside of you


[Verse 4]
G       B7                Em
 Once I looked you in thе eye
G      B7       Em
 And I told you lies
G      Am                C
 How I wish I could have treated you well
C             D7           G           G7
 I wish I had more than a story to tell


[Chorus]
    C               D7
The world is always on the brink
    G              Em
And love is dumber than you think
C                B7/A
Singing songs of death and doom
     G              Em           C    D7
With all the voices inside of you


[Outro]
G     B7           Em
 I've been through hell
G      B7     Em
 On my way to hell
G       Am            C
 I only fought with myself
C       D7      G
 So I’d have a story to tell
