[Verse 1]
A5                    B5      G5          A5
  Every finger in the room is pointing at me
A5                       B5         G5
   I wanna spit in their faces then I get afraid of what that could bring
        A5                 B5
I got a bowling ball in my stomach
        G5           A5
I got a desert in my mouth
A5                B5                     G5
  Figures that my courage would choose to sell out now
 
[Pre-Chorus]
          C             G               Am        F
I've been looking for a savior in these dirty streets
G              Am       F                 G
Looking for a savior beneath these dirty sheets
          C             G                    Am
I've been raising up my hands, drive another nail in
G         F                   G
Just what God needs: one more victim
 
[Chorus]
       Am             G     F  G  Am
Why do we crucify ourselves every day
            G
I crucify myself
      F       G           Am
And nothing I do is good enough for you
         G     F  G  Am             G
Crucify myself every day, I crucify myself
   Dm
My heart is sick of being
          F
I said my heart is sick of being in
Am            C       Dm
Chains                Oh oh oh
Am            C       Dm
Chains                Oh oh oh
 
[Verse 2]
A5                 B5  G5          A5
  Got a kick for a dog beggin' for love
       A5       B5               G5
I gotta have my suffering so that I can have my cross
        A5          B5        G5                    A5
I know a cat named Easter he says: "Will you ever learn
           A5        B5              G5
you're just an empty cage girl if you kill the bird"
 
[Pre-Chorus]
          C             G               Am        F
I've been looking for a savior in these dirty streets
G              Am       F                 G
Looking for a savior beneath these dirty sheets
          C             G                    Am
I've been raising up my hands, drive another nail in
G          F                       G
Got enough guilt to start my own religion
 
[Chorus]
       Am             G     F  G  Am
Why do we crucify ourselves every day
            G
I crucify myself
      F       G           Am
And nothing I do is good enough for you
         G     F  G  Am             G
Crucify myself every day, I crucify myself
   Dm
My heart is sick of being
          F
I said my heart is sick of being in
Am            C       Dm
Chains                Oh oh oh
Am            C       Dm
Chains                Oh oh oh
 
[Bridge]
A          C
Please     believe
A          C
Save       me
A          C             A  C   G
I          cry   Ahhhh   Ahan   Ahanan
 
[Pre-Chorus]
C             G               Am        F
Looking for a savior in these dirty streets
G              Am       F                 G
Looking for a savior beneath these dirty sheets
          C             G                    Am
I've been raising up my hands, drive another nail in
G               F               G
Where are those angels when you need them?
 
[Chorus]
       Am             G     F  G  Am
Why do we crucify ourselves every day
            G
I crucify myself
      F       G           Am
And nothing I do is good enough for you
         G     F  G  Am             G
Crucify myself every day, I crucify myself
   Dm
My heart is sick of being
          F
I said my heart is sick of being in
Am            C       Dm
Chains                Oh oh oh
Am            C       Dm
Chains                Oh oh oh
