email/comment with any corrections :)
this can be played all acoustically also and it sounds very very cool.
i would suggest filling out the chords if doing so instead of just playing power chords.
 
 
Tuning: Standard
 
 
From the scrapes and bruises, to the familiar abuses, I'll kick and scream but it never
changes anything.

I could spill my guts out wearing my best little girl pout, but I almost missed it.
But nobody said that this was gonna be easy. This is not the man...

I hoped to be and I'm just trying to stop the bleeding. I don't know how to word it, I just
started to deserve it. And all my, all my faces are alibis, and me, I'm half the man I
wanted to be.

Most times it all comes out wrong. I don't know the words but I'll hum along. There's
nothing familiar here anymore to anyone or anything enough to feel alive.

And I still taste that sadness, it makes me crazy without it at best. But I'm in the same
place I used to be and I'm trying harder not to be. This is not the man...

Don't want it, don't get it. I know you won't regret it. Don't surface, don't surface.
And I feel so damn worthless. Another day is gone and all my faces are alibis, all my
faces are
alibis, and me...
