Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]I[C][F][Bb]
[Gm]cry [G]at the
start of [Gm]every [G]movie[C]
[F]I guess 'cause I wish I was
[Bb]mak ing things too
[A]But[Ab] I'm working for[Eb] the [Ab]knif[Eb]e

[Verse 2]
I [G]used to think I would tell [C]stories
But [F]nobody cared for [Bb]the stor
ies I [A]had [Ab]about
No [Eb]good guys

[Verse 3]
[F]I always knew the w[Bb]orld moves on
I [F]just didn't know it would [Bb]go without m[A]e
I [G]start the day high and
it end[Eb]s so low
[F]'Cause I'm working for
[Bb]the knife
[G][C][F]

[Verse 4]
[Bb]
[Eb]I us[Ab]ed to[G] think I'd be done by[Gm] 20[C]
[F]Now at 29, the road [Bb]ahead
appears the same
Though [F]maybe at 30 I'll
[Bb]see a way to c[A]hange
That [Ab]I'm living [Eb]for the knife

[Verse 5]
[F]I always thought the c[Bb]hoice was mine
[F]And I was right, but I jus[Bb]t chose wro[Am]ng
[A]I s[G]tart the day lying and
[Eb]en d with the truth
That [F]I'm dying for the knife

[Outro 1]
[Bb]
[A][G][Eb][F]
[Bb]
