Am F G Dm
Am F G Dm
[Verse 1]
Am
I was raised on distractions
F
Out of sync with the rest of reality
G
I really tried to blend in
Dm
Pretending I was part of the scenery
Am
It made me seem more human
F
In a world less gruesome
G
It made me pass for normal
Dm
Among the high and neutral
[Chorus]
Am
On the best of days I'm a loaded gun
F
On the worst of days I'm a burned out candle
G
And the wind keeps blowing down my house
Dm
Changing direction north to south
Am
On the best of days I'm a loaded gun
F
On the worst of days I'm a burned out candle
G
And the wind keeps blowing down my house
Dm
Changing direction north to south
[Instrumental]
Am F G Dm
[Verse 2]
Am
I always spoke my mind
F
Like a rhinoceros charging into walls
G
And when I courted you
Dm
I never said the words at all
Am
Maybe it came out wrong
F
I don't know where it came from
G
The truth can hurt sometimes
Dm
Like the greatest lies
[Chorus]
Am
On the best of days I'm a loaded gun
F
On the worst of days I'm a burned out candle
G
And the wind keeps blowing down my house
Dm
Changing direction north to south
Am
On the best of days I'm a loaded gun
F
On the worst of days I'm a burned out candle
G
And the wind keeps blowing down my house
Dm
Changing direction north to south
[Instrumental]
Am F G Dm
[Chorus]
Am
On the best of days I'm a loaded gun
F
On the worst of days I'm a burned out candle
G
And the wind keeps blowing down my house
Dm
Changing direction north to south
Am
On the best of days I'm a loaded gun
F
On the worst of days I'm a burned out candle
G
And the wind keeps blowing down my house
Dm
Changing direction north to south
