A         F7M 
It's easier to run 
               G                   E7 
Replacing this pain with something numb 
It's so much easier to go 
Than face all this pain here all alone 

Am                            G 
Something has been taken from deep inside of me 
The secret I've kept locked away no one can ever see 
Wounds so deep they never show they never go away 
Like moving pictures in my head for years and years they've played 

{Pre-Chorus} 

(If I could change I would take back the pain I would) 
(Retrace every wrong move that I made I would) 
(If I could stand up and take the blame I would) 
(If I could take all the shame to the grave I would) 

{Chorus} 

Sometimes I remember the darkness of my past 
Bringing back these memories I wish I didn't have 
Sometimes I think of letting go and never looking back 
And never moving forward so there'd never be a past 

{Pre-Chorus} 

{Bridge} 

     F          G 
Just washing it aside 
           Am           Em 
All of the helplessness inside 
           F               G 
Pretending I don't feel misplaced 
             G 
It's so much simpler than change 

{Chorus} 


It's easier to run 
(If I could change I would take back the pain I would) 
(Retrace every wrong move that I made) 
It's easier to go 
(If I could change I would take back the pain I would) 
(Retrace every wrong move that I made I would) 
(If I could stand up and take the blame I would) 
(I would take all my shame to the grave)
