A Rite Of Passage Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]Cut,[F] cut[Em], cu[Am]t,[F][Em][Am]
cutting myself down to pieces.
Too [F]hard on myself, it would seem,
That [Dm]everyone could see
my self-worth [D]but [E]but me.
[Em]I'll [Am]take a stand,
devise plans, figure it [F]out.
I'll [Dm]take my cuts and stitch them up
with [Em]su tures of pure cement.
[G]And [F]I've realize[G#]d...

[Verse 2]
There's [C]no right way to go.
[Em]So what [Am]if I'm a sinner?
I've got [Dm]black spots [D]on my liver,
And [G]cancer growing on both my lungs.
We [C]take everything we know,
[Em]Abou[Am]t ourselves and put them in a diar[Dm]y.
In a fire ring of [G]scrutiny, [G#aug]but oh not me no[D]w.
I think I'm [F]ready [G]to go.[Am]

[Verse 3]
Back, back, [Am]back,
back to the crooner in question.
I [F]sure hope you all like my songs.
Well [Dm]maybe [D]I put too
much stock in my [E]rhymes,
And [Am]melodies to stun the
[F]brainwashed minds.
From [Dm]day one I took pride in my [Em]pure
and [Am]honest [G]intentions.[F]
And I've real[G#]ized...

[Verse 4]
There's [C]no right way to go.
[Em]So what [Am]if I'm a sinner?
I've got [Dm]black spots on my liver,
And [G]cancer growing on both my lungs.
We [C]take everything we know,
[Em]Abou[Am]t ourselves and put them in a diar[Dm]y.
In a fire ring of [G]scrutiny, [G#aug]but oh not me no[Dm]w.
[D]I think I'm rea[F]dy to [G]go.
[Am][F]

[Verse 5]
[Em][Am]
And [F]I've real[Em]ized,
[Am][F][Em][Am][F][Em][F]
[G#][G#aug][C]
That I don't wan[Am]na be judged no more.
[F]And [G#]I've realized...

[Verse 6]
There's [C]no right way to go.
[Em]So what [Am]if I'm a sinner?
I've got [Dm]black spots [D]on my liver,
And [G]cancer growing on both my lungs.
We [C]take everything we know,
[Am]About ourselves and put them in a [Dm]diary.
In a fire [D]ring of [G]scrutiny, [G#aug]but oh not me[G#] now.[D]
I think [Dm]I'm [F]ready [G]to go.[D]
I think [Dm]I'm [F]ready [G]to go.[C]
