The Middle

G C G C Em C G

C        G      C             G
I wasn't higher than I was supposed to be
C         Em                   C         G
  But the walls froze through then they shatter
     C           G      C             G
I'm partially peaceful sitting in an empty room
C           Em             C      G
  While the lights outside never matter
D           G                  C
  There's a bitter pill on the other side
D       G                 C
  Smoky shaded space in a double-wide
         Em   D/F#   G
We could come to the middle
Am     C/B      C
Let it all pass through
G C G C Em C G

C           G
I'm a pretender
     C               G
It's like bein' the morning sun
C         Em          C       G
  All the lies I live make me wonder
C       G
I had a bottle
C                  G
Filled it with the only one
C            Em             C     G
  That could turn my nights into thunder
D       G                 C
  How I wish it could be another way
D       G                    C
  And I wouldn't stumble and go away
                   Em  D/F#   G
Yeah, it makes you cry just a little
      Am      C/B C
If it does us any good
I cannot see it
G C G C Em C G
D G C D G C
Em D/F# G
Am C/B C

         C         G
And I am shaping a madness
C                G
Then it seems to mirror me
C           Em            C         G
  While the world spins faster than ever
    C             G
And they say it's burning
C                   G
All the things you need to say
C            Em          C            G
  You better get out now while you're limber
D         G                 C
  Morning never cuts like I want it to
D           G                 C
  There's a canyon in between me and you
            Em    D/F#   G
And I would bleed just a little
    Am    C/B    C
And never be the same
G C G C Em C G

       C    G      C         G
Why am I so tired when all I do is sleep?
C           Em              C        G
  Is it the same dream that I keep having?
 C             G       C          G
You were there with me lying in a naked seat
              Em        C       G
But there was ample shelter and padding
D         G                  C
  But the wind whispers in a darkened street
D         G                  C
  Selling simple warnings to you and me
                 Em  D/F#   G
Yeah it makes me die just a little
  Am     C/B   C
A little every day
