F#m When the day begins A All the guilt sinks in E F#m And I look on the wreckage of the night Though I try to break free, the cycle breaks me Am I ever gonna see the light? All the friends I've lost and the pain I've caused Have never been enough just to make me stop The lines I draw to look at myself Are turning into somebody else D Bm I know how this will end C# F#m But I'm starting up again D Bm Turned around, inside out C# E Cause this way Chorus: F#m A D E Takes me nowhere (I can't, can't see a way out) Takes me nowhere (I can't, can't see a way out) Takes me nowhere (I can't, can't see a way out) C# It beats me up When I go there (I know I could start again) When I go there (Oh no, here we go again) Takes me nowhere (Oh no, here we go again) It beats me up Open on this scene, a familiar dream Of you telling me what I already know Though the truth seems near, you can't get there from here But, you sure know where you're gonna go As the rumor wind blows, my infamy grows Seein' friends above and I hit another low The picture I paint to look at myself Is turning into somebody else I know how this will end But, I'm starting up again Turned around, inside out 'Cause this way Chorus: Takes me nowhere (I can't, can't see a way out) Takes me nowhere (I can't, can't see a way out) Takes me nowhere (I can't, can't see a way out) It beats me up When I go there (I know I could start again) When I go there (Oh no, here we go again) Takes me nowhere (Oh no, here we go again) It beats me up Ah, ah But, today, if I change And stop digging my own grave I will try to set things right 'Cause this way Chorus: Takes me nowhere (I can't, can't see a way out) Takes me nowhere (I can't, can't see a way out) Takes me nowhere (I can't, can't see a way out) It beats me up When I go there (I know I could start again) When I go there (Oh no, here we go again) Takes me nowhere (Oh no, here we go again) It beats me up Up | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsA C# D E F#m Bm Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
