[Intro]
Bm A Gmaj7 Bm A Gmaj7 Bm A Gmaj7 [Verse]
D Staring at trophies in milk crates G On the floor of

a northeastern garage
D Wondering how

it's all such a blessing
G And why it's

all so dang hard
[Verse]
D It's the Massachusetts Turnpike G And when I get home,

I'll creep down the hall
D Snow in the headlights,

they call it a dream
G But the world's flat, and

I'm falling off
[Chorus]
Em7 G Hold your arms out, jump, heck,

at least you tried
Em7 G I fall short, I always fall behind Bm A G I hate letting people down Bm A G I hate letting people down Bm A G I hate letting people down, and
D
I do it all the time
[Verse]
D I never wanted to hurt you G But I'm elbows deep in that dirt D I still count every unplanted seed G I write down every unspoken word [Chorus]
Em7 Hold your arms out,
G
God help the justified
Em7 G I fall short, I always fall behind Bm A G I hate letting people down Bm A G I hate letting people down Bm A G I hate letting people down, and
D
I do it all the time
[Bridge]
Bm You get up for work every day,
A
you drag yourself right out of bed
Em G The arms of those angels are wrapped

around the dreams you left
Bm A I look the other way pretending not to notice Em I don't know how it died, but
G N.C.
I know where the ghost is
[Outro]
Bm A G I hate letting people down Bm A G I hate letting people down Bm A G I hate letting people down, and
Bm A
I do it all the time
G Bm A G I'm sorry, I hate letting people down Bm A I'm sorry, I hate letting people down,
G D
and I do it all the time
