Hey everyone! Just wanted to let you know that this is my interpretation of this song.
It's one of my favorite songs on this album and I really like how Lifehouse brings the
music to life. I listened to it a hundred times and I found that if you play it with a
Capo on 2, you pretty much get the same effect. Have fun with it and email me if you have
any question!

Capo II/Intro: (vamp A) ||: - D - E - f# - D - E - A :||

D E f# f# E/g# A
Catch your breath. Hit the wall.
D E f# D E A
Scream out loud as you start to crawl
D E f# D E f#
Back in your cage, the only place
D E f# f# E/g# - D
Where they will leave you alone.
A D
Cause the weak will seek the weaker till they've broken them
f# A
Could you get it back again? Would it be the same?
f# D
Fulfillment to their lack of strength at your expense
f# A /G# - D
Left you with no defense, they tore it down

Chorus:
E f#
And I have felt the same
D E f#
As you, I've felt the same
D E A --> (repeat intro progression)
As you, I've felt the same...

D E f# D E f#
Locked inside, the only place
D E f# f# E/g# A
Where you feel sheltered, where you feel safe
D E f# D E f#
You lost your self, in your search to find
D E f# f# g# D
Something else, to hide behind
A D
The fearful always preyed upon your confidence
f# A
Did they see the consequence, when they pushed you around?
f# D
The arrogant build kingdoms made of different ones
f# A E - D
Breaking them till they've become just another crown...

(Repeat Chorus)

D E f# D E f#
Refuse to feel, anything at all
D E f# D E A
Refuse to slip. Refuse to fall.
D E f# D E f#
Can't be weak. Can't stand still.
D E f# f# - E/g# - D
You watch your back cause no one will...

A D
You don't know why they had to go this far
f# A
Traded your worth for these scars, for your only company
f# D
Don't believe the lies that they have told to you
f#
Yeah not one word was true
A E D
You're all right. You're all right. You're all right.

(Repeat Chorus, fade and end)
