[Intro]
| G     | A7     | C     | G     |
 
 
[Verse 1]
G                                 A7
 It’s something cold like what I stuck around to fight through
    C                             G
And it gets feeling tougher every day
G                      A7
 I feel like everybody likes to run their mouth but
        C                                    D
Can’t decide on what it is they’re tryin’ to say
D                                   G
 There’s nothing wrong with hearing voices
Em    D                    C     C#m7b5
 Even when they’re in your dreams
G                         F               C              G
 And if you’d listen in tomorrow could be better than it seems
 
 
[Verse 2]
G                           A7
 I used to think I couldn’t even count my blessings
    C                                G
But now I know they’re few and far between
G                        A7
 And when I look at my reflection in the mirror
      C                           D
I can see some man I’ve never even seen
D                         G
 The wasted life I left behind me
Em          D              C  C#m7b5
 Was just a war I couldn’t win
G                         F                C              G
 I’m the devil’s guest of honor that’s the best it’s ever been
 
 
[Chorus]
       C               G
Little said is soonest mended
          Em                D           C
Without a wing a word could fly a 1.000 miles
    Am                      Em
I’d rather be abandoned or alone
        F               D              G
Just so I could lend my secrets to the wind
 
 
[Instrumental]
| G      | A7     | C      | G      |
| G      | A7     | C      | D      |
| D      | G      | Em  D  | C  C#m7b5  |
| G      | F      | C      | G      |
 
 
[Verse 3]
G                           A7
 I know a man whose pain is heavy like an anchor
       C                              G
And it drags him to the bottom of the sea
G                          A7
 His cloudy eyes are often lost behind a daydream
   C                         D
Or frozen in some broken memory
         D                                G
But I’ve never heard him speak about what happened
Em           D             C      C#m7b5
 He’ll never say what laid him low
G                          F              C             G
 There are secrets that we carry that are ours to bare alone
 
 
[Verse 4]
G                               A7
 You said a love that’s kept in secret dies in darkness
      C                               G
And a soul needs to confess to be set free
G                        A7
 So I’m lifting back the cover of my heart, dear
    C                                  D
And hoping that you’ll do the same for me
D                              G
 It’s not too pretty, but it’s open
         Em         D                C   C#m7b5
It’s the only way I know to tell you true
G                           F             C              G
 I’d walk the world alone before I’d ever walk away from you
 
 
[Chorus]
       C               G
Little said is soonest mended
          Em                D           C
Without a wing a word could fly a 1.000 miles
    Am                      Em
I’d rather be abandoned or alone
        F               D              G
Just so I could lend my secrets to the wind
 
 
[Instrumental]
| G      | A7     | C      | G      |
| G      | A7     | C      | D      |
| D      | G      | Em  D  | C  C#m7b5  |
| G      | F      | C      | G      |
 
 
[Verse 5]
G                                  A7
If you can link your value to your wallet or a key chain
     C                                     G
Or a locked wrought iron fence around your yard
G                               A7
Living check to check, a skinny tie around your neck
          C                              D
On stolen time and borrowed numbers off a card
D                             G
 You blink and life is left behind you
Em            D                   C   C#m7b5
 There’s no escape, that’s just a fact
      G                            F            C              G
We’re all a dollar short and every one of us is running out of track
 
 
[Chorus]
       C               G
Little said is soonest mended
          Em                D           C
Without a wing a word could fly a 1.000 miles
    Am                      Em
I’d rather be abandoned or alone
        F               D              G   G7
Just so I could lend my secrets to the wind
       C               G
Little said is soonest mended
          Em                D           C
Without a wing a word could fly a 1.000 miles
    Am                      Em
I’d rather be abandoned or alone
        F               D              G
Just so I could lend my secrets to the wind
