[Verse 1]
C Eb/G F C
Lost boy, with the shreds of your shoes on your feet
Eb/G F Em C
And the schoolgirls call you a freak
Eb/G F C
Long gone, with all that you are in a bag
(Watching you fumble)
Eb/G F Em
And a paper cup held in your hand
[Chorus]
C Gm
You have your pride, you're standing your own ground
Dm Bbmaj7
Your dignity will never go, and your mind is pretty sound
Em E/G# Am
You stare at the sun, you screw up your face and
Fm
Then you're done
Fsus4 F C Gsus4 C
(Repeat intro tab)
[Verse 2]
C Eb/G F Cmaj7
Lost soul, camped at the side of the road
Eb/G F Em C
And the rain rises up through your toes
Eb/G F Cmaj7
Brave man, with the egg running down past your nose
(The future was yours, how it came down to this no one knows)
Eb/G F Em
All the troubles you've had no one knows
(Nobody knows)
[Chorus]
C Gm
You have your pride, you're standing your own ground
Dm Bbmaj7
Your dignity will never go, and your mind is pretty sound
Em E/G# Am
You stare at the sun, you screw up your face and
Fm
Then you're done
[Bridge]
C Caug Am Ab
C Caug Am F
C Caug
Outside when the traffic cowers
Am Ab
And the past begins to fade away
C Caug
Tell yourself it's just what the thunder said
Am F
So pack up your belongings and stop talking with yourself
C Caug Am Ab
C Caug Am F C
C Ab C
All the friends I had, I made you a list
Bb C Ab C
Even if it's true they don't all exist
Bb C Ab C x6
(All the friends I had, I made you a list
Even if it's true they don't all exist)
[Verse 3]
C Eb/G F C
Slackjaw, will you tell me of all that you were?
Eb/G F Em C
And the promises you made to her?
Eb/G F C
Drink up, you can tell me of all that you've seen
Eb/G F Em
While we wait for the light to turn green
[Chorus]
C Gm
You have your pride, you're standing your own ground
Dm Bbmaj7
Your dignity will never go, and your mind is pretty sound
Em E/G# Am
You stare at the sun, you screw up your face and
Fm
Then you're done
