Balanced On A Shelf

	  		
Intro:
 
G#m B E F# 
 G#m B F#  


G#m                          F#                   E 
   A somewhat inviting, very different of kind of hell. 
         G#m          F#             E 
To live, without ever looking at yourself. 
        G#m             E                B             F# 
You see life is so much simpler when it's balanced on a shelf. 
            A                               F#      F#          
Thats been unperfectly placed there in the sun now look at how your'e admired 

        E                 G#m                F#              E 
by everyone, Who sees you now they know your name. But is it real? 
             G#m           F#                E 
All your bad habits have become your life's appeal 

              B                                        E 
And then it's where did you go wrong, where did you go wrong? 
                      B                                        E 
When you're screaming where did you go wrong, where did you go wrong? 
              G#m B E F#   G#m        G#m  B  E  F#        
Well first of a-l-l,     and worst of a---l---l.  
            G#m       B           E             F#        E  E/F 
you looked inside yourself didn't care much for what you saw 
             G#m 
for what you saw 

 G#m B E F# 
 G#m B F#  

       G#m              F#             E 
Can you imagine,did you ever play with dolls? 
          G#m               F#               E 
You can protect your cotton heartbeat on the skin of porcelain walls. 
         G#m             E                    B                F#  
You keep staring to your future through these marble eyes they show, 
     A                          F#     
Everything I'm never ever gonna have, 
         F#                             E                   
That's a giant pill, But swallow if you can.  

             G#m 
You'll start again, 
                   F#            E        
You'll change your name and be reborn  
    G#m            F#            E 
and give in to all that has been torn 

              B                                        E 
And then it's where did you go wrong, where did you go wrong? 
                      B                                        E 
When you're screaming where did you go wrong, where did you go wrong? 
              G#m B E F#   G#m        G#m  B  E  F#        
Well first of a-l-l,     and worst of a---l---l.  
            G#m       B           E             F#        E  E/F 
you looked inside yourself didn't care much for what you saw 
             G#m 
for what you saw 

 G#m B E F# 
 G#m B F#  
 G#m B E F# 
 G#m B F# F#
