Justification

D#m* C#*

D#m* C#*

        (the F# A B is played as a triplet at the end of the measure.)
        C#
We have tried and failed
        F#
We have stumbled and fallen
        F#*   A* B*  C#
We have tried a  new taste
       F#
And we spit it back out
F#* A* B*   C#
    We have taken a left turn
        F#
When we meant to turn right
F#* A* B*   C#
    We lost sight of our origins
        F#
But our past never lost sight of us
F#*  A*    B* E* F*
Lost sight of us

                                                (play this really quick, one strum each.)
B               A                     D         G F# E C B A
Not emulation - cause that's not this hard
B               A                         D     G F# E C B A
Not imitation - cause that won't take you far
B                A                          D   G F# E C B A
Not digression - cause I'm falling straight up
B                   A                       D   G F# E C B A G F# E C B A B*
It is progression - I'm not afraid to stand up

C#
I don't know what I expected
        F#
But I expected to be great
F#* A*    B* C#
I   said "I'm trying my hardest"
       F#
But he didn't like the tape
F#* A* B* C#
       Take a look at what you're doing
            F#
And tell me I'm too late
F#* A* B* C#
       You say we're walking backwards
                 F#
Yeah, well, that dead horse sure can't run
F#* A*   B*    E*   F*
It  sure can't run

B               A                     D         G F# E C B A
Not emulation - cause that's not this hard
B               A                         D     G F# E C B A
Not imitation - cause that won't take you far
B                A                          D   G F# E C B A
Not digression - cause I'm falling straight up
B                   A                       D   G F# E C B A G F# E C B A B*
It is progression - I'm not afraid to stand up

    D#m*   C#*
The truth
D#m* C#*
D#m* C#*
D#m* C#*
D#m* C#*
D#m* C#*

C#       C#*
I know I can
B        B*
I know I will
A
I know
G F#   E    C B    A  B
I know what I have to do
                          A
And now you'll have to listen
                    D          G F# E C B A
And I hope it won't hurt
B                 A
   I've seen your poison
                 D             G F# E C B A
You've done your worst
B              A                               D       G F# E C B A
I've seen your better and I can't believe it's true
B               A                                 D    G F# E C B A G F# E C B A B* B*
You've lost the truth that used to live inside of you
