[Intro]
G#m C# F# B A#
 
 
[Verse 1]
G#m C#I cry at the start of every movie
F# B A#I guess 'cause I wish I was making things too
Esus4 E Esus4 EBut I'm working for the knife
 
 
[Verse 2]
G#m C#I used to think I would tell stories
F# B A#But nobody cared for the stories I had about
Esus4 ENo good guys
 
 
[Verse 3]
F# BI always knew the world moves on
F# B A#I just didn't know it would Go without me
G# EI start the day high and it ends so low
F# B A#'Cause I'm working for the knife
 
 
[Instrumental]
G#m C# F# B E A
 
 
[Verse 4]
G#m C#I used to think I'd be done by 20
F# BNow at 29 the road ahead appears the same
F# B A#Though maybe at 30 I'll see a way to change
Esus4 EThat I'm living for the knife
 
 
[Verse 5]
F# BI always thought the choice was mine
F# B A#And I was right but I just chose wrong
G# EI start the day lying and end with the truth
F# B A#That I'm dying for the knife
 
 
[Outro]
G#m E F# B
