CAPO +4
VERSE 1
Em
I was born inside a small town, I’ve lost that state of mind
D C
Learned to sing inside the Lord’s house,
D
but stopped at the age of nine
Em
I forget when I get awards now the wave I had to ride
D C D
The paving stones I played upon, they kept me on the grind
Em
So blame it on the pain that blessed me with the life
D C
Friends and family filled with envy
D
when they should be filled with pride
Em
And when the world’s against me is when I really come alive
D C D
And everyday that Satan tempts me, I try to take it in my stride
Em
You know that I’ve got whisky with white lines
and smoke in my lungs
C D
I think life has got to the point I know without it’s no fun
Em
I need to get in the right mind and clear myself up
C D
Instead, I look in the mirror questioning what I’ve become
Em
I guess it’s a stereotypical day for someone like me
C D
Without a nine-to-five job or an uni degree
Em
To be caught up in the trappings of the industry
C
They showed me the locked doors
D (C)
I find another use of key and you’ll see
CHORUS
C D
I’m well aware of certain things that will destroy a man like me
C B Em
But with that said give me one more, higher
C D Em
Another one to take the sting away
C D Em
I am happy on my own, so here I’ll stay
C D Em
Save your lovin’ arms for a rainy day
C D
And I’ll find comfort in my pain Eraser
VERSE 2
Em
I used to think that nothing could be better
than touring the world with my songs
C D
I chased the pictured perfect life, I think they painted it wrong
Em
I think that money is the root of evil and fame is hell
C D
Relationships and hearts you fixed, they break as well
Em
And ain’t nobody wanna see you down in the dumps
C D
Because you’re living your dream, man, this shit should be fun
Em
Please know that I’m not trying to preach like I’m Reverend Run
C D
I beg you, don’t be disappointed with the man I’ve become
Em
Our conversations with my father on the A14
C D
Age twelve telling me I’ve gotta chase those dreams
Em
Now I’m playing for the people, dad, and they know me
C D
With my beat and small guitar wearing the same old jeans
Em
Wembley Stadium crowd two hundred and forty thou
C D
I may have grown up but I hope that Damien’s proud
Em
And to the next generation, inspiration’s allowed
C
The world may be filled with hate
D
but keep erasing it now somehow
CHORUS
C D
I’m well aware of certain things that will destroy a man like me
C B Em
But with that said give me one more, higher
C D Em
Another one to take the sting away
C D Em
I am happy on my own, so here I’ll stay
C D Em
Save your lovin’ arms for a rainy day
C D Em
And I’ll find comfort in my pain Eraser
C D Em
And I’ll find comfort in my pain Eraser
C D Em
And I’ll find comfort in my pain Eraser
