[Verse 1]
Am
Oh my my my my sweetest friend
G                    Am
oh my my what have I done
Am
oh no no no not this again
G                     Am
oh no no no no please god

[Pre-Chorus]
       F
but he battens down his hatches
Am
closes his eyes
         C
begs the good lord for the answers
     G
he's never gonna find
    F
and washed out in the shadows
      Am
I'm a whisper in the night
   C
confusion, disillusion
    G
as I look him in the eye

[Chorus]
           F
this ain't god's fault, brother
              Am
he still toes the line
           F
this ain't god's fault, brother
   G                      Am
no, I'm afraid this one's mine

[Verse 2]
Am
blood, sweat and piss and i'm on the floor
G                      Am
I swear to god this is it
Am
benzo, hydro and julio
G                    Am
routine maintenance kit

[Pre-Chorus]
      F
but I batten down my hatches
Am
and I close my eyes
             C
pray the good lord for the answers
       G
I'm never gonna find
    F
I'm washed out in the shadows
         Am
you're a whisper in the night
    C
confusion, disillusion
      G
as you look me in the eye

[Chorus]
           F
this ain't god's fault, brother
             Am
he still toes the line
           F
this ain't god's fault, brother
   G                      Am
no, I'm afraid this one's mine

[Bridge]
              F                Am
This bed is a cage
              F                Am
This bed is a cage
              F                Am
This bed is a cage
    Dm            C                       G
And now I have to lie in the one that you made
    Dm            C                       G
And now I have to lie in the one that you made
    Dm            C                       G
And now I have to lie in the one that you made

[Pre-Chorus]
     F
so I batten down my hatches
Am
and I close my eyes
        C
beg the good lord for the answers
G
I'm never gonna find
F
I'm washed out in the shadows
Am
You're a whisper in the night
    C
confusion, disillusion
      G
as you look me in the eye

[Chorus]
           F
this ain't god's fault, Matthew
                 Am
he still toes the line
           F
this ain't god's fault, Matthew
           G              Am
no, I'm afraid this one's mine
