Intro: Em - Am 
 
Em                Am 
When bruised, coming down 
 
Em                 Am  
Then I, get turned around 
 
  Em                 Am 
I tend to cut myself off 
 
Em                           Am 
>From things, I shouldn't run from 
 
 
C                   B           Em 
It doesn't really matter 
 
                         C 
Sometimes we run for cover 
 
           B          Em 
I'm always on the outside 
 
Em                          
Stab me in the back, wanting things that I lack 
 
Am                                       
Sticking to your ploy, is there something you enjoy? 
 
Em             
Publicity, and insecurity, 
 
Am                          
  Just wanna be me, it's my need to be free 
 
C                B      Em 
It doesn't really matter 
 
                      C 
Sometimes we run for cover 
 
                B         Em 
I'm always on the outside 
 
C                   B       Em 
You never seem to wonder 
 
                     C 
How much you make me suffer 
 
            B        Em 
I speak it from the inside 
 
G            Em 
Looking right at me 
G            Em 
Won't receive my plea 
G            Em 
Tell me what you mean 
    B 
I'm not what's on the screen 
 
G             Em 
Thinking what will be 
G              Em 
Fighting in my sleep 
G                  Em 
That's quite enough for me 
               B            G - Em - G - Em - G - Em 
Make me wanna scream 
             C 
Keep it to myself 
 
C                B      Em 
        It doesn't really matter 
 
                      C 
Sometimes we run for cover 
 
                B         Em 
I'm always on the outside 
 
C                   B       Em 
        You never seem to wonder 
 
                     C 
How much you make me suffer 
 
            B        Em 
I speak it from the inside
