D
It's a game
                      G
Baby, it's just a game
                           D                Bm
And nobody loses when you learn to love the one
     C            G
Who finally wins sometimes
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
G         Bm                    A
So don't hold your breath like that
             G
Baby, let it go
              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 last
           Gm            D  C G D
You're my letter to the past

You can cry
You know it's always okay to cry
You don't even need to know why
But don't you ever feel alone inside
If you need to know the truth
I still haven’t got a clue
If the blind can lead the blind
Then, baby, I'm just like you

Chorus:
You're a stone wall
In a world full of rubber bands
You're a pillar of belief
Still fightin' your empty hands
Folks are gonna lean on you
And leave when the cracks appear
But, darlin', I'll be here
I'll be the last
You're my letter to the past

Chorus:
You're a stone wall
In a world full of rubber bands
You're a pillar of belief
Still hidin' your empty hands
Folks are gonna lean on you
And leave when the cracks appear
Darlin', I will be here
I'll be the last
You're my letter to the past

It's a game
You know it's okay to lose a game
But always remember your name
And have no shame because
You're built to last
