[Intro 1]
[G][Em][E][Em][G][Em][G]
[Em][G]

[Verse 1]
[Em]I
put [G]on my clothes like a body guard
I put [Am]the dogs on [G]patrol [Am]in
my [C]own back [G]yard[Em]
I don't [G]wanna fight but I'm
constantly ready
And I don't rock the boat,
[Am]but it's al wa[C]ys[G] unsteady

[Verse 2]
There's [C]an elephant in my head
And I [Bm]tip toe around it
There are [Em]eggshells on the floor
There[G]fore I [Am]never touch the ground
It's [G]like that

[Verse 3]
[C]old black hole,
No [D]matter how you try,
You set [Am]out [D]each day
Never to arrive

[Verse 4]
I got my [Em]eyes on the prize
But it [G]looks just like a mystery
And it [Am]all goes by on the
[C]lonesome trail to victory
[D]I'm dra[Em]wing in [G]the blinds,
I got my own four walls
And the [Am]show really starts
once [C]the curtain [G]falls

[Verse 5]
Take this [C]thorn from my side
Fix this [G]chip on my [Bm]shoulder
[G]Time is [Em]racing with the clock
And I ain't [Am]getting [Em]any [Am]older

[Verse 6]
It's like that [C]old black hole,
No [D]matter how you try.

[Verse 7]
It's like that [C]old black hole,
No [D]matter how you try.

[Verse 8]
It's like that [C]old black hole,
No [D]matter how you try,
You set out each day
Never to arrive
[G]I p[D]ut [G]on my finest thread
And I wrap up my body tight
With the sun in [C]my eyes
I step into the [G]night
Like the mys[D]tery in the dark

[Verse 9]
Oh, it's just another [G]kind of light
I don't expect you to believe me

[Verse 10]
[G]But everything
[D]is al[G]right
I don't make rules for a living
I don't do tricks for a dime

[Verse 11]
I was born on a [C]good day,
Deaf, dumb [G]and blind.
Who am [D]I to tell the truth?
[Em]I don't even kno[G]w what it is.

[Verse 12]
I [G]don't know how to say it but [Am]I know
that I can [D]show [G]you.
I don't know how to say it but
I know that I can [D]show [G]you.

[Verse 13]
I tie my [G]boots up tight
And I head straight for bed
There's a pis[C]tol and a crystal
Underneath my pil[G]low

[Verse 14]
There's a [G]tender heart
Inside that ugly armadillo
"These are [C]tears of joy,"
[D]Cried the weeping willow

[Verse 15]
There's a spir[C]it in the air
And [D]there ain't no way around it
I was not [G]prepared to lose it
On the moment [C]that I found it

[Verse 16]
It's like that [C]old black hole,
[D]No matter how you try.

[Verse 17]
It's like that [C]old black hole,
[D]No matter how you try.

[Verse 18]
It's like that [C]old black hole,
[D]No matter how you try,
You set out each day
Never to ar[G]rive
