Too far gone     (video)

 

    Am - E - F (2x)

 

  Am                       E              F

1.     I built these walls with blinders on my eyes,

Am               E             F         Dm   - E

    brick by brick and now I realize:

F                                            C

    That I'm shut out, I'm shut in,

                     E         F                                 C

    and every time I try to reach out I reach in.

                      E                       F

    I break my fingers on the bricks.

                                        Dm

    Why do I do this to myself ?

                                                      E       - E7

    There is really no one else to blame.

                           Am      G             D7        F

    So could you reach down and pull me out !

                 Dm               E               F

    Or am I just too far gone to be saved ?

                 Dm              E              Am

    Or am I just too far gone to be saved ?

2.    I take my falls, hands pulled behind my back,

Am                          E          F                          Dm     - E

    you made the knot and didn't leave much slack.

F                                           C

    Now I'm tied up, I'm tied down,

                      E         F                        C

    now every time I try to fly up, I fly down

                    E                          F

    into the sea and hold my breath,

                                        Dm

    I am a mirrored rumble fish,

                                                E   - E7

    life is so clenching for the kill.

                          Am       G               D7         F

    So could you reach down and break my will,

                 Dm              E               F

    or am I just too far gone to be saved ?

                 Dm              E              Am 

    Or am I just too far gone to be saved ?

    I break my fingers on the bricks
