[Intro]
Good morning students!

then
D G Em A  x2


[Verse 1]
The story opens
D
Right Where
  G
I knew it would end
       Em
It's repeating over
      A
stuck in my past tense
      D            G
So I Stop Wait And face
              Em
today I gotta pull it apart
         A
so I can push it away


[Refrain 1]
      G
I was born and raised
          D
alone and on the edge
          Em
I've been wanting more
            A
but winding up with less


[Chorus 1]
D
I can't think about it
   G            C
On every single day
A quick decline coming
G       D
over me I won't talk about
       G         C
it But I admit defeat
It's been a short
         A      D G Em A D G Em A
piece of history


[Verse 2]
The story closes
D               G
Right Here It's over
             Em
again It's repeating over
        A
like it never began
      D
So I Stop Look
   G
At all I've done
        Em
and I'm feeling like
     A
I'm stuck on page one


[Refrain 2]
      G
I was born and raised
          D
alone and on the edge
          Em
I've been wanting more
            A
but winding up with less


[Chorus 2]
D
I can't think about it
   G            C
On every single day
A quick decline coming
G       D
over me I won't talk about
       G         C
it But I admit defeat
It's been a short
         A
piece of history


[Chorus 3]
D
I can't think about it
   G            C
On every single day
A quick decline coming
G       D
over me I won't talk about
       G         C
it But I admit defeat
It's been a short
         A
piece of history


[Outro]
      G
I was born and raised
          D
alone and on the edge
          Em
I've been wanting more
            A           D
but winding up with less
