Chords
[Intro]
Em C D
Em C D I was born inside a Emsmall town, I lost that state of mind
[Verse 1]
Learned to sing inside the CLord's house, but stopped at the age of Dnine
I forget when I get aEmwards now the wave I had to ride
The paving stones I Cplayed upon, they kept me on the Dgrind
So blame it on the Empain that blessed me with the life
Friends and family filled with Cenvy when they should be filled with Dpride
And when the world's aEmgainst me is when I really come alive
And everyday that Satan Ctempts me, I try to take it in my Dstride
You know that I've got Emwhisky with white lies and smoke in my lungs
I think Clife has got to the point I know witDhout it's no fun
I need to Emget in the right mind and clear myself up
Instead, I Clook in the mirror questioning Dwhat I've become
I guess it's a Emstereotypical day for someone like me
Without a Cninetofive job or an Duni degree
To be Emcaught up in the trappings of the industry
Show me the Clocked doors, I find another Duse for the key
And you'll see
[Pre-Chorus]
C I'm well awareG of certain thingsD that can destroyAm a man like me
C But with that saidG give me one more,D B7 higher Em
[Chorus]
AnoCther one to takeD the sting away Em
I am hapCpy on my own,D so here I'll stay Em
Save your loCvin' arms forD a rainy day Em
And I'll find comCfort in my pain,D eraser
[Verse 2]
I used to think that nothing Emcould be better than touring the world with my songs
I chased the Cpictured perfect life, I think they Dpainted it wrong
I think that Emmoney is the root of evil and fame is hell
ReClationships and hearts you Dfixed, they break as well
And Emain't nobody wanna see you down in the dumps
Because you're Cliving your dream, man, this Dshit should be fun
Please know that EmI'm not trying to preach like I'm Reverend Run
I beg you, Cdon't be disappointed with the Dman I've become
Our converEmsations with my father on the A14
Age Ctwelve telling me I've gotta Dchase those dreams
Now I'm Emplaying for the people, dad, and they know me
With my Cbeat and small guitar wearing the Dsame old jeans
Wembley EmStadium crowd's twohundredandfortythou'
I may have Cgrown up but I hope that DDamien's proud
And to the Emnext generation, inspiration's allowed
The world may Cbe filled with hate but keep eDrasing it now
Somehow
[Pre-Chorus]
C I'm well awareG of certain thingsD that will befallAm a man like me
C But with that saidG give me one more,D B7 higher Em
[Chorus]
AnoCther one to takeD the sting away Em
I am hapCpy on my own,D so here I'll stay Em
Save your loCvin' arms forD a rainy day Em
And I'll find comCfort in my pain,D eraser
[Post-Chorus]
Em And I'll find comCfort in my pain,D eraser
Em And I'll find comCfort in my pain,D eraser
[Bridge]
Em Welcome to the new show
C I Dguess you know I've been away Em
But where I'm heading, who knows
C But my Dheart will stay the same
Em Welcome to the new show
C I Dguess you know I've been away Em
But where I'm heading, who knows
My pain, eraser
[Outro]
Em And I'll find comCfort in my pain,D eraser
Em And I'll find comCfort in my pain,D eraser
Em And I'll find comCfort in my pain,D eraser
Em And I'll find comCfort in my pain,D eraser
