[Verse 1]

G                                F
Tonight I'll have a look
           F          C             Bb
And try to find my face again
G                                  F
Buried beneath this house
F                                    C    Bb
My spirit screams and dies again
G                               F
Out back a monster wears a
F                         C          Bb
cloak of Persian leather
G                      F
Behind the TV screen
F                             C
I've fallen to my knees

[Pre-Chorus]

                     G
I said you've got me where you want me
Bb                      C
Again and I can't turn away
G                                                F                    C
I'm hanging by a thread and I'm feeling like a fool
G                                               Bb                     C
I'm stuck here in between the shadows of my yesterday
G
I want to get away
F                      C
I need to get away

[Verse 2]

G
Blanket of silence
F                  F                    C              Bb
makes me want to sink my teeth in deep
G                              F
Burn all the evidence
F                    C    Bb
A fabricated disbelief
G                               F             F             C   Bb
Pull back the curtains take a look into your eyes
G                                F           F                  C
My tongue has now become a platform for your lies I said

[Pre-Chorus 2]

           G
You've got me where you want me
Bb                              C
Again and I can't turn away
G                                                     F                C
I'm hanging by a thread and I'm feeling like a fool
G                                                Bb                    C
I'm stuck here in between the shadows of my yesterday
G
I want to get away
F                    C
I need to get away

[Chorus]

G              F
Now you know
Bb                         C                      G
Yeah, you got my back against the wall
       F     Bb                  C                     G
Oh God, I ain't got no other place to hide
                F                 Bb
chained down, like a sitting duck
         C                   G
Just waiting for the fall
             F    Bb                      C
You know, yeah you got my back against the wall

G F F C Bb

[Verse 3]

G
Deep in the jungle
F           F                 C                 Bb
Camouflaged by all the fallen leaves
G                               F
A hand holds up the sky
            F             C            Bb
While shamefully I make my plea
G
The alter's callin'
F           F                  C          Bb
But my legs won't seem to stand
G
Guess I'm a coward
F                 F                     C
Scared to face the man I am I said
