Chords for Tom MacDonald - Angels (Lyrics)

[G] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
[Em] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
[Em] _ _ _ _ _ _ [D] It's not [G] the liquor I'm addicted to, it's feeling brave
[A] The feeling of not feeling the pain
I've been on and [Em] off the bottle, I put oxys out my nostrils
Believe me, you do anything to breathe before you suffocate
I [G] couldn't stop it, staying clean was not an option
I was trying to [A] be myself, but being me was such a problem
I just wanted to [Em] be Thomas, but Thomas was at the bottom of a holy dug
And getting comfortable [D] inside a coffin
[G] He locked it and swallowed the key, caught up, forgot all his [A] dreams
Robbed at a common, became embalmed in a toxic [Em] routine
Beer was the escape, but I got stuck escaping
Whiskey was the blanket in the Vegas [G] basement
Way before the fame, I was [A] wasted
Freezing, doing anything I could to keep the flame [Em] lit
To anyone going through the same shit
Heaven's got enough [D] angels, if you need to stay [G] here
And I can't make you stay, but [A] sometimes going ain't a choice
[Em] And every choice you make is one that you didn't [D] avoid
[G] Crash the whip and ditch the car
Burn [A] a bridge, follow the stars
So [Em] far monsters in the dark, but nothing's worth it till it's hard
[G] Sometimes it's hard to see [A] things clear
In your tears
[Em] But anywhere is way better than here
Don't [D] jump in
It's [G] not the liquor I'm addicted to that's feeling tough
[A] When you get bullied half your life and feel weak like you just ain't [Em] enough
Then you have a couple drinks and you catch a buzz
And finally have the courage to defend yourself and throw [G] a punch
And that adrenaline goes straight into your brain and [A] blood
Addicted to the confidence is practically the greatest [Em] drug
Chasing dragons every night in all the latest clubs
What used to be your favorite [D] thing somehow became a dangerous [G] crutch
It was what it was
[A] And that's the thing, it could happen to like any of us
[Em] I had great parents, tight friends, strong morals, nice threads
Good school, good looking, good grades, time [G] spent
Being normal only lasted for a while
[A] One bad choice sparked a downward spiral
[Em] I've spent half my life trying to climb out of that hole
Heaven's got [D] angels, we need you at home
[G] And I can't make you stay, but [A] sometimes going ain't a choice
[Em] And every choice you make is one that you didn't [G] avoid
Crash the whip and ditch the car
Burn [A] a bridge, follow the stars
So [Em] far monsters in the dark
But nothing's worth it till it's hard
[G] Sometimes it's hard to see [A] things clear
New York's here
[Em] But anywhere is way better than here
White [D] chocolate here
[G] It ain't the liquor we're addicted to, it's everything else
[A] The happiness we had but we forget how it felt
[E] We've been drinking with the devil cause we're going through hell
Pray to God for a little bit of help
[G] Man I've been there, I did those things
I drank those [A] drinks, I took those pills, I puked in sinks
[E] And the truth ain't pretty, listen up, this a tough one
You can save by your angels or become one
[G] Crash the whip and ditch the car
[A] Burn a bridge, follow the stars
So [Em] far monsters in the dark
But nothing's worth it till it's hard
[G] Sometimes it's hard to see [A] things clear
New York's here
[Em] But anywhere is way better than here
White [D] chocolate [G] here
