Alibis

[D]From the scrapes and bruise[Bm]s
To the familiar abus[G]es
I'll kick and scr[D]eam but it never c[A]hanges anything  [G]

[D]I could spill my guts ou[Bm]t
Wearing my best little girl pou[G]t
And I almost missed i[D]t
But nobody s[A]aid that this was gonna be eas[G]y

This is not the m[D]an I hoped to be, and
I'm just tr[Bm]ying to stop the bleeding
I don'[G]t know how to word it
I just st[D]arted to deserve it
And [D]all my, all my faces are ali[G]bis
And me, I'm h[G]alf the man I wanted to be

[D]Most times it all comes out wron[Bm]g
I don't know the words but I'll hum al[G]ong
There's nothing famil[D]iar here anymore  [A]
to anyone or anyth[G]ing left to feel ali[D]ve

[D]And I still taste that sickness[Bm]
And it makes me crazy without it at best[G]
But I'm in the same p[D]lace I used to be   [A]
But I'm trying h[G]arder not to be

This is not the m[D]an I hoped to be
And I'm just tr[Bm]ying to stop the bleeding
I d[G]on't know how to word it
I just st[D]arted to deserve it
And[D] all my, all my faces are al[G]ibis
And me, I'm h[G]alf the man I wanted to be

[Em]So what am I? What am I? So [G]what am I?

And al[D]l my, all my faces are alib[Bm]is
This is not the m[D]an I hoped to be
And I'm j[Bm]ust trying to stop the bleeding
I don[G]'t know how the words go
I just sta[A]rted not to say no

[D]Don't want it, Don't get it
I know [D]you won't regret it
D[Bm]on't surface, Don't surface
And I [Bm]feel so damned worthless
Another da[G]y is gone and a[D]ll my faces are a[G]libis
a[D]ll my faces are ali[G]bis

I'm h[G]alf the man I wanted to be [D]    [Bm]        [G]
