F                  Am
Dear reader, if it feels like a trap
       G
You're already in one
F            Am
Dear reader, get out your map
      G
Pick somewhere and just run
F            Am
Dear reader, burn all the files
   G
Desert all your past lives
F                 Am
And if you don't recognize yourself
G
That means you did it right

Chorus:
G                               Am             F
Never take advice from someone who's falling apart
G                               Am             F
Never take advice from someone who's falling apart

Dear reader, bend when you can
Snap when you have to
Dear reader, you don't have to answer
Just 'cause they asked you
(You should find another)
Dear reader, the greatest of luxuries is your secrets
Dear reader, when you aim at the devil
Make sure you don't miss

Chorus:
Never take advice from someone who's falling apart
Never take advice from someone who's falling apart

    F
So wander through these nights
         Am
I prefer hiding in plain sight
    G
My fourth drink in my hand
These desperate prayers are the cursed man
         F
Spilling out to you for free
     Am
But darling, darling, please
              G                                             F
You wouldn't take my word for it if you knew who was talking
        Am                    G
If you knew where I was walking
                                                 F
To a house, not a home, all alone 'cause nobody's there
        Am                                                G
Where I pace in my pent and my friends found friends who care
                                                   F
No one sees when you lose when you're playing solitaire

                         Am             G
You should find another guiding light, guiding light
While I shine so bright
F                        Am             G
You should find another guiding light, guiding light
While I shine so bright

F                      Am                       G
You should find another, you should find another (guiding light)
            G                        F Am G F Am
Find another, you should find another
                       G F Am G
You should find another
