 Chorus: Bm A Pound my knuckles G F#m hard against the floor Em F My head against the wall F# A But I did this to myself Bm A G Assume it's just not worth F#m getting back up but Em F I'll blame it on bad luck F# A Bm I'll shake responsibility Bm I spent some time in A Em F#m a bad place at 18 Bm D wishing I could see Em something through clear F#m Bm eyes Do you ever wake up A Em to realize that your F#m life is meaningless? Bm Does it give you strength D or lead you to your Em F#m grave at a young age? Chorus It seems that when I ran away from my past All my dignity, my faith, my pride got left back And now I think it's time that I realize Self pity's meaningless Though I'm 10 feet deep I'll claw my way back out from in my grave Chorus: Pound my knuckles hard against the floor My head against the wall But I did this to myself Assume it's just not worth getting back up So I'll blame it on bad luck And I'll shake responsibility And say a hard life did this to me G D F# But now I realize I'd give Bm A G anything I have to walk D F# a day in those old shoes Wondering what G my first smoke D F# would be like my first Bm A G fuck my next fuck up D Or the next band that F# would change my life G A F#/A# and it changed my life Bm G A F#/A# and it changed my life Chorus: Pound my knuckles hard against the floor My head against the wall But I did this to myself Assume it's just not worth getting back up So I'll blame it on bad luck And I'll shake responsibility And say a hard life did this to me You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA  A#  Bm  D  Em  F  F#  F#m  G  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
