Everything I do
Surrounds these pieces of my life
That often change
Or hey, maybe I’ve changed
Sometimes seeming happy
Can be self-destructive
Even when you’re sane
or you're insane
<<(strum the and
once)
But don’t bother waking me today....
Chorus: (jam!! still four beats, but double it. 8/4???)
Here I am
I’m so young
I know I've been bitter
I've been jaded I'm alone
Cause everyday
I bite my tongue
If you only knew my mind was full of razors
<<<(strum the
once)
To cut you like a word if only sung
*intro riff*
But this is my song It is my song
repeat pattern of progression:
I live everyday
Like they’ll never be a last one
Till they’re gone
And they’re gone
I'm too proud to beg
for your attention
and your friendship
and your time
So you can come and get it from now on
Chorus
Bridge:
And it's youuu that I want, it is youuuuuuu...
break:
(8/4 again..like the chorus) CGAmF CGAmF
Here I am
I’m so young
I know I've been bitter
I've been jaded I'm alone
Cause everyday
I bite my tongue
If you only knew my mind was full of razors
I'm not sure I can take it
I've nothing strong to hold to
I'm way too old to hate you
my mind is full of razors
<<<(strum the
once)
To cut you like a word if only sung
*intro riff*
But this is my song
strum C once to end on "song"
This is my song
I hope its right, Brandi is absolutely amazing, please send me tab tips if you think it
work...
Cheers!
