[Intro]
E  A
 
B                     A
It took me awhile to see things as they were
                 E                           B
In the light of truth, it wasn't you, it was me
                          A
I let myself get used to drowning in the hurt
             E                             B
Against the wall, who'd of thought, it was me
C#m                         A        E
From there I couldn't look over my shoulder
C#m                              B
I kicked down all the walls and started all over
 
[Chorus]
             E      F#m  G#m   A
And I don't paint myself into corners anymore
     E                                 B
In a brittle heart of clay I threw my brushes away
    E            F#m         G#m          C#m
The tools of the trade that chained your memory to me
             A
Are out the door
         A(one strum)                 E
I don't paint myself into corners anymore
 
E  A  E  A
 
B                                 A
When you left you left me with no other choice all
        E                     B
But to sink, to my knees, and cry
                      A
I never knew just how far a soul could fall
        E                          B
Like a rock, couldn't stop, didn't try
C#m                     A            E
I locked myself behind shades of misery
C#m                     B
But when I let you go I set myself free
 
[CHORUS]
E  A  C#m  B
 
    E            F#m         G#m          C#m
The tools of the trade that chained your memory to me
             A
Are out the door
         A(one strum)                 E
I don't paint myself into corners anymore
 
E  A  E  A   E

A    XX222X
B    224442 (bar chord - bar 2)

Note-If you're new and you don't like bar chords much you could probably
play this song without the F#m and G#m in the chorus by just continuing to
strum the E. It wouldn't make that big a difference to the song.
