[Verse 1]
 
Em DSometimes life it takes you by the hand
C DIt puts you down before you know it
G DIt's gone and you're dead again
Em DI've been in places and I won't pretend
C DThat I make it I just
G D EmFollow my head
Em DWhen it's strange to take a walk downstairs
C DSweep you all up on a corner
G DAnd pay for my bread
Em DYou know that I cannot believe my own truth
C DTo show what a truth
G D EmGot nothing to lose
 
 
[Chorus]
 
Em DYeah yeah and it's okay
C DI tie my hands up to a chair
G DSo I don't fall that way
Em DYeah yeah and I'm alright
C DI took a sip of something poison
G D EmBut I'll hold on tight
 
 
[Verse 2]
(same as verse 1)
 
You know those days when you wanted to choose
To not get out of bed and
Get lost in your head again
You play the game but you gotta cut
Cuz' you're coming down hard
Your joints are off stud
I tried to say that's not the only way
I never knew if I could
Convince myself to change
You were pacing I was insecure
Slip and fall I got the calls of the
Prison I was living in
 
 
[Chorus]
 
Em DYeah yeah and it's okay
C DI tie my hands up to a chair
G DSo I don't fall that way
Em DYeah yeah and I'm alright
C DI took a sip of something poison
G D EmBut I'll hold on tight
