Intro:
G
I've been feeling numb for a while
Am
So I turn up the AC dial
Em
So I can feel something holding me
C
Even if it's just cotton sheets
Verse:
GAm
I've learned to accept that people can't save me
EmC
And if there's some changing, it will be here inside of me
GAm
I won't pretend that I don't love you, if I can tell you how I feel
EmC
My world is slowing down and I've been stuck up on this hill
GAm
Where the chaos down below made me feel like I don't know
EmC
What is best for my vitality, in this empire made of money
Verse:
GAm
I don't wanna sing about misbehaving if life's about being gracious
EmC
Don't wanna chase after insanity to prove that I can take it
GAm
I'm a girl like any other, calling the sisters and the brothers
EmC
It shouldn't be this hard to stand up and love each other
Verse:
GAm
Yeah, I wanna tell my future daughter that there's hope in this existence
EmC
There's a path here if you listen, it's the depth in your persistence
GAm
There's a breath and there's a word, there is beauty to be learned
EmC
The loss is not the enemy in the river of humanity
Verse:
GAm
And calling all the people that talk about beliefs
EmC
Do you believe in where the world is as she's falling to her knees
GAm
And we're the only ones, with our bodies and our guns
EmC
That are consumed with all our differences, instead of with the love
Outro:
G
I've been feeling numb for a while
Am
So I turn up the AC dial
Em
So I can feel something holding me
C
In this Kansas City motel room
