[A] I've [B] given up, I'm giving up slowly I'm blending in so you won't even [F#m] know me
[E] Apart from this whole [B] world that shares my [A] fate
This [F#] one last bullet you [A] mentioned Is my one last shot at [F#m] redemption
Cause I [E] know to live you must give your life [B] away
[F#m] Cause I've been housing [B] all this doubt [A] And [E] insecurity
And [F#m] I've been locked [A] inside the house All the while you [E] hold the key
And [F#m] I've been dying [D] to get out [A] There might be a [E] death for me
[B] And even though there's no way of knowing [B] where to go
I promise I'm going [A] because [E] I [D] gotta get out of [E] here
[A] I'm stuck [E] inside this rut that [D] I fell into [E] by mistake
[A] _ _ [E] I [D] gotta get out of [E] here [F#m] And I'm begging [E] you, I'm begging [D] you
I'm begging [E] you to be [A] my escape
I've given [B] up, I'm doing this [D] alone now Cause I've failed and I'm ready to be [F#m] shown
out You told [E] me the way and now I'm [B] trying to
[D] get there [A] And [B] this life sentence that I'm [D] serving
I admit that I'm every bit [F#m] deserving But the [E] beauty of grace is that [Bm] it makes
life [D] not fair [F#m] Cause I've been housing all this doubt
[A] And insecurity [E] And [F#m] I've been locked inside [D] that house
[A] All the while you [E] hold the key And [F#m] I've been dying to [D] get out
[A] There might be a death for me And [B] even though there's no way of knowing
where to go I promise I'm going [A] because
[E] I [D] gotta get out of [E] here [A] I'm afraid that [E] this complacency
[D] Is something I [E] can't [A] shake [E] I [D] gotta get out of [E] here
[F#m] And I'm begging [E] you, I'm begging you [D] I'm begging you [E] to be my [F#m] escape
I am a hostage [D] _ to my own [A] humanity Self-detaining, [B] forced to live in this mess
[F#m] I've made And all I'm asking [D] is for you to do
What you can [F#m] with me But I can't ask you to give
[G#] What you already [B] _ gave Cause [F#m] I've been housing all [B] this doubt
And insecurity [E] And I've been locked inside [A] that house
All the while you hold [E] the key And I've been dying to [A] get out
There might be a death for me And [B] even though there's no way of knowing
[D] where to go I promise [A] I'm going because
[E] I gotta [D] get out of [E] here [A] I'm stuck [E] inside this rut
That I [D] fell into by [E] mistake [A] I _ [E] gotta [D] get out of [E] here
[F#m] And I'm begging you, [E] I'm begging you [D] I'm begging you [E] to be my [F#m] escape _ _

[F#m] I fought you [G] for so [D] long I should've let you win
[F#m] Oh how [A] we regret those things [G#] we [D] do _ And all I was trying to do
Was save my [F#m] own skin [A] Oh, but so [D] were you
_ _ So _ were _ [A] you _ _ _ _
