[Intro]
C
 
[Verse 1]
C                              Am7
Somewhere in the fog I heard a cry
F                 C
It kept me up for hours
F               C
Haunts me every night
 
[Verse 2]
C                                   Am7
Screamin' through my veins, the fire spreads
F               C
Fill me up with poison
F               C                 Gsus4
Dark clouds overhead, I'm soaking wet
 
[Chorus]
Am7           C               Gsus4
I'm hurt, I'm hurt you didn’t know
F                     C               G
But there’s no pretty way to tell you so
Am7           C                 Gsus4
I'm tired, so tired I’m letting go
F                 C                G
I've been burning flags to let you know
        G#maj9       Am7             C
Time is up, time has flown, Time has flown
 
[Verse 3]
C                                  Am7
Here she comes, she lays beside my head
F                       C
She holds me through my winter
F             C
In this awful bed
C                              Am7
Softly in my ear she casts her spell
F                 C       F                   C
"Fuck this cursed cancer, send it straight to hell"
             Gsus4
She knows me well
 
[Chorus]
Am7            C              Gsus4
I'm hurt, this body’s wearin' thin
F           C                  G
A beautiful mistake I’m livin' in
Am7        C           Gsus4
I’m tired, sometimes I fantasize
F                    C               G
They push me out to sea, coins on my eyes
       G#maj9      Am7          C
Family friends say goodbye, say goodbye
 
[Chorus]
Am7            C             Gsus4
I'm hurt, not hurt enough to die
F                 C             G
See I was born to rage, born to fight
Am7             C              Gsus4
I'm tired, not tired enough to sleep
F              C                    G
So devil on my chest, don't sing to me
           G#maj9         Am7           C
Or take my breath, let me be, Oh let me be

Good coverage! If you´re playing capo 7 though, I would recommend playing E7 instead of G#maj9. It´s not the same as the original, but it sounds almost similar.

Capo 7, or transpose +7, to have the studio version.
