[Intro] Am [Verse] Am G The bitter taste, I hold my tongue D The manic hope the damage done Am G It's bittersweet, black on gold D Talk is cheap, or so I'm told Am I'm gonna ride this back to the edge of town G Roll to the bridge with my eyes shut D And spit at the stars And scream in the dark Am There's nothing I can do to change it now G But if I cut myself open, baby D You can read all my scars Read all my scars [Chorus] F Am Hello, goodbye C G There's a million ways to die F Should've let me way back Am Should've let me way back C G By the roadside F Am Hello, goodbye C G I was staring in the devil's eyes F Should've let me way back Am Should've let me way back C D By the roadside Am It's a bitter taste [Verse 2] Am G Jagged stain on my skin D Broken leg, born again Am G You are the guy, upside down D Twisted free, my new crown Am I'm gonna ride this back to the break of day G Rolling through the goggle of the fountain D Won't take it away I'm not gonna change Am I'm gonna live so hard, these broken wings G Will lift me to the sun so I can burn D Up in the clinch Again and again [Chorus] F Am Hello, goodbye C G There's a million ways to die F Should've let me way back Am Should've let me way back C G By the roadside F Am Hello, goodbye C G I was staring in the devil's eyes F Should've let me way back Am Should've let me way back C D By the roadside F Am C G It's a bitter taste [Bridge] F Am C G It's a jagged state F Am C G It's a bitter taste F Am C D It's a jagged state [Chorus] F Am Hello, goodbye C G There's a million ways to die F Should've let me way back Am Should've let me way back C G By the roadside Am It's a bitter taste
