[Intro]
D D
It's a game
G
Baby, it's just a game
D D Bm
And nobody loses when you learn to love the one
C G
Who finally wins sometimes
Gsus4 G D
You'll be wrong
D G
'Cause sometimes, we get it wrong
D
But nobody leaves here alive
D Bm C G
And nothin' holy comes from bein' right
Gsus4 G Bm A
So don't hold your breath like that
G
Baby, let it go
Gsus4 G Bm A
You're gonna feel it in your back
C
Believe me, I oughta know
[Chorus]
D
You're a stone wall
A
In a world full of rubber bands
Bm
You're a pillar of belief
A G
Still fightin' your shakin' hands
D
Folks are gonna lean on you
A
And leave when the cracks appear
Bm
But, darlin', I'll be here
A G
I'll be the la-ast
Gm D D C G D
You're my letter to the past
[Verse]
D
You can cry
G
You know it's always okay to cry
D
You don't even need to know why
D Bm C G
But don't you ever feel alone inside
Gsus4 G Bm
If you need to know the truth
A G
I still haven't got a clue
Bm A
If the blind can lead the blind
C
Then, baby, I'm just like you
[Chorus]
D
You're a stone wall
A
In a world full of rubber bands
Bm
You're a pillar of belief
A G
Still fightin' your empty' hands
D
Folks are gonna lean on you
A
And leave when the cracks appear
Bm
But, darlin', I'll be here
A G
I'll be the la-ast
Gm Bm A G
You're my letter to the past
Bm A C
[Chorus]
D
You're a stone wall
A
In a world full of rubber bands
Bm
You're a pillar of belief
A G
Still hidin' your empty hands
D
Folks are gonna lean on you
A
And leave when the cracks appear
F# Bm
Darlin', I will be here
A E
I'll be the last
G Gm
You're my letter to the past
D D C G
D D C G D
[Outro]
D
It's a game
G
You know it's okay to lose a game
D
But always remember your name
D Bm
And have no shame
C G
Because you're built to last
