Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[E][A][D][G]

[Verse 1]
I [E]cry at the start of every [A]movie
I [D]guess 'cause I wish
I was [G]making things too
But [F]I'm working [C]for the knife
[F][C]
I [E]used to think I would [A]tell stories
But [D]nobody cared for the [G]stories I had
[F]About no good [C]guys

[Chorus 1]
[D]I always knew the w[G]orld moves on
I [D]just didn't know
it would [G]go without me
I [E]start the day high and it [C]ends so low
'Cause [D]I'm working [G]for the knife

[Interlude 1]
[E][A][D][G][C][F]

[Verse 2]
I [E]used to think I'd be done [A]by twenty
[D]Now at twenty-nine,
the road a[G]head ahead the same
[D]Though maybe at thirty
I'll [G]see a way to change
That [F]I'm living [C]for the knife

[Chorus 2]
[D]I always thought the c[G]hoice was mine
[D]And I was right but I jus[G]t chose wrong
I [E]start the day lying and [C]end with the truth
That [D]I'm dying for the [G]knife

[Outro 1]
[E][C][D][G]
