I Don't Like Who I Was Then

[Intro] E  B  A  B
        E  B  A  B

E
Tossed around like sea glass and you rounded out my edges
          A                         B
I'll feel better when the headaches go away
        E                                 C#m
I got a scar across my forehead, turning purple in the cold
       A
From a night at Shore Memorial
      B
I was 16 and afraid
        A                      B
Turned away, like I'm working baby face
       E        D        A
Out of Mid-South in the 80's
         E                  B
I kept a blade hidden in my wrist tape

             E                              A
I think I'm growing into someone you could trust
           E           Dm              C#m
I want to shoulder the weight until my back breaks
  G#m     A
I want to run until my lungs give up
                         C#m       E
If I could manage not to fuck this up
                          B
If I could manage not to fuck this up
                   A
I think enough is enough

E                               C#m
Hidden in the tall grass in the naked light of day
         A
I put my past-self in the ground
           B
I've been dancing on the grave
            E
I'm not the person that I was then
     A           C#m
I'm tearing him away
       A
I was bitter. I was careless
      B
I was 19 and afraid

A                E
But you deserved more from me
A                        F#m
I don't know why I would say those things
A                E                    B
But you deserved more from me and I'm trying every day

             E                              A
I think I'm growing into someone you could trust
           E           Dm              C#m
I want to shoulder the weight until my back breaks
  G#m     A
I want to run until my lungs give up
                         C#m       E
If I could manage not to fuck this up
                          B
If I could manage not to fuck this up
                   A
I think enough is enough

A
You left me walking in circles
C#m        B            F#m    B
You were a shot in the dark
G#m          C#m           B
You were the baby teeth I buried
             G#m                B
You were the sounds of distant cars
                        C#m
You left me walking in circles
            B          A
You were a shot in the dark
             F#m
You were the banner that says "No One"
       G#m                B
That I tattooed across my heart
A                       C#m
You left me walking in circles
            B           A
You were a shot in the dark
                      F#m                E
You're scattered like ashes across every song that I write
                  B
You're where the light pollution starts

             E                              A
I think I'm growing into someone you could trust
           E           Dm              C#m
I want to shoulder the weight until my back breaks
  G#m     A
I want to run until my lungs give up
                         C#m       E
If I could manage not to fuck this up
                          B
If I could manage not to fuck this up
E          A
Enough is enough
