{tuning: Standard (EADGBE)}
{section: Intro}
{finger picked} [A]  A\C#  DIV   F#mIX  EVII  Bm

There's somet[A]hing I'd like to con[D]fe[C]ss           [A]
At the ris[F#m7]k of exposi[A]ng[D] my faults [D]   [C]
But I'm star[Bm]ting to find t[A]hat most of [F#m]the time    [A]      [D]
I j[D]us[C]t don't like peop[F#m]le at all   [E]

When I saw yo[A]u five minutes ago  [D]    [C]                 [A]
I was afra[F#m]id you might talk off [A]my[D] ear       [D]         [C]
I pa[Bm]nicked insi[A]de and decided t[F#m]o hide       [A]         [D]
And that[D]'s[C] how I ended u[E]p here         [A]           [Asus4]                  [A]                      [Abm]

[F#m]Crouching behind the live lobs[F#m]ter [F]tank
H[Asus2]oping [D]you'd just pass me by, oh...       [Asus2]             [C#]
T[D]ha[C]t's how I ende[E]d up here        [F#m]              [A]                [D]
 [D]\[C]             [E]             [A] A\[C#] DIV F#mIX EVII  [Bm]
That's how I ended up here

[A]Oh how I wish [D]I [C]could say      [A]
It's my fi[F#m7]rst time to[A] h[D]ide in this[D] s[C]pot
But with all[Bm] of the people[A] I try to av[F#m]oid         [A]           [D]
I f[D]in[C]d myself down her[F#m]e a lot     [E]

{stop time} * [A]                    [D]\[C]            [A]
I mean, just look at these guys in the tank
              [F#m]          [A]\[D]                        D\[C]  * {end stop time}
With the red rubber bands 'round their arms
If they don[Bm]'t open up and [A]just keep to the[F#m]mselves           [A]             [D]
They won'[D]t [C]do anyone [E]harm       [A]         [Asus4]                [A]                    [Abm]

So I sc[F#m]reen my calls,   don't answer the d[F#m]oor [F]
Sometimes[A] w[D]ish I could disappear,            [Asus2]                  [C#]
oh...tha[D]t'[C]s how I ended up[E] here            [F#m]                  [A]                    [D]
That's ho[D]w [C]I ended up .. [E]

{strummed}
B[A]uilding a wall so no one co[Bm]uld bother me
[A]Li[C#]ving my life in isol[D]ation
O[A]pening up to only those clos[Bm]e to me
[A]No[C#]body's close to me, what have [D]I done?

{this part is finger picked again}

BREAK   [A]  A\[C#]  DIV   F#mIX  EVII  [Bm]
        [A]  A\[C#]  DIV   F#mIX  EVII  [Abdim]

See, I really[A] want [D]to[C] be known    [A]
But I'm not[F#m7] quite as strong[A] a[D]s the fear      [D]        [C]
That you won't u[Bm]nderstand the f[A]ool that I am [F#m]            [A]              [D]
And tha[D]t'[C]s how I ended u[E]p here        [F#m]                 [A]                   [D]
That's [D]ho[C]w I ended up he[E]re            [F#m]                     [A]                       [D]
       [D]\[C]        [E]      [A]  A\[C#]  DIV   F#mIX  EVII  [Bm]
That's how I ended up here
