Arrows

	  		


         G 
 My old man he kicked me out 
              C 
 He kicked me out 
         Em                         C 
 When I told him that I lived this way 
    G                 C 
 I lived this way, I lived this way 
    Em                C 
 I lived this way, I lived this way 
    G                 C 
 I lived this way, I lived this way 
    Em 
 I lived this way 
C 
 He doesn't own me 
G 
 He doesn't own me 
C 
 He doesn't own me 
Em 
 He doesn't own me 
         G 
 Just escape 

C      Em     G 
 Arrows were falling 
C      G       
 Arrows were falling 
C      Em     G 
 Arrows were falling 
C      G      
 Arrows were falling 

G                  C 
 The black rinse align your face 
         Em                       C 
 Like a deer drinking water in a picture frame 
G                     C 
 I swear to God I've seen those eyes 
      Em                    C 
 The back of my lids when closing mine 
G                        C 
 With clasped hands we shake it out, shake it out, 
Em                      C 
 Lay some boots and we walk away 
G                    C 
 I felt slightly connected to him 
         Em       G 
 And said now boy, now you own me 

C      Em     G 
 Arrows were falling 
C      G       
 Arrows were falling 
C      Em     G 
 Arrows were falling 
C      G      
 Arrows were falling 

G C Em    C 
   Yeah, yeah 
G 
 He doesn't sleep 
         C 
 So in truth he never wakes up 
          Em 
 Another day rushing to his death 
                        C 
 Out of breath on the treadmill of the famous 
G                          C 
 He makes mistakes tells stories to his paintbrush 
               Em 
 And when the world finally sees his art 
             C 
 He wishes that he never would have made it 
         G                      C 
 Just escape, just escape ricochets 
                                 Em 
 And eclipses faith living in a city 
 With a grey umbrella over your shoulders 
               C       
 And you're becoming suffocated by the weight 
                   G 
 Can't hit those breaks 
 This is what you wanted, huh 
          C                               Em 
 But you got it all in vein cause you forgot who you are 
               C 
 Right as the world learned your name it goes... 

C      Em     G 
 Arrows were falling 
C      G       
 Arrows were falling 
C      Em     G 
 Arrows were falling 
C      G      
 Arrows were falling 

G 
 Let me ash my issues 
 C 
 Ashtray in this asphalt 
   Em 
 American spirits, black coffee 
        C 
 Conversations and a passport 
G 
 When God gives you everything 
        C                                    Em 
 Everything that you ever asked for and it still looks a bit different 
                C 
 Then when you pictured it on that back porch 
          G    C                               Em 
 And I'm gone world traveller all I got is my songs 
           C                                                    G        C 
 When the nights start blending into one another and I don't recall Tom Petty in this motherfucker 
                         Em              C 
 All I wanna do is free fall, yeah free fall 

                   G                             C 
 And I'm so caught up, I'm caught up, I'm caught up 
                                 Em 
 And I'm so tired, swore that I wouldn't stare into the light 
                 C 
 And guess who tried it 
                           G 
 Shit I'm blinded by this lime light 
                       C 
 This lime light, it's all night, it's all day 
         Em 
 These bright lights, these bright lights 
           C 
 Once you turn 'em on you can't walk away,  
        G 
 Don't die here, don't die here 
         C 
 I came too far, I'm too great 
          Em 
 But I'm too scared and I'm too afraid 
      C 
 To stare this world into its face 
     G 
 I'm almost home, I'm driving lost 
    C 
 My eyelids closed, light turns to grey 
      Em 
 The cameras off, the show is over 
       C 
 You close the curtains and just escape 

G      C      G 
 Arrows were falling 
G      C           
 Arrows were falling 
G      C      G 
 Arrows were falling 
G      C           
 Arrows were falling 

    G 
 I live this way 
    C 
 I live this way 
    Em 
 I live this way 
    C 
 I live this way 
    G

    Em
