G# You're as sharp as a knife and you fit like a glove Cm That is no way to live that is no way to love G# Cm D# Full of fear in your skin and the weakness in giving in Fm Stabbed in the back but you feel no pain Gm Push the heaviest doors that you can't open G# Cm Gm Yeah they tied me up and my body lies still, again G# You're as bright as the sun and as bold as the moon Cm I don't know when you'll break but it's gonna be soon G# Cm Gm If my will caves in, I'll be in the same boat as you Chorus: G# I've got the salt skin Cm Running to where he is G# Never going to give in Cm D# Even with the strength Fm He's stealing salt skin D# Telling me I'm winning wars Dm7-5 G they created just to understand... G# "the meaning of" Hands on strings and my mouth open Find the perfect words that I've not spoken And I won't tell the truth, unless you want me to For all of the time that I lost my head When it rolled to the floor and I found it again But when it came back No, I didn't know my own name Chorus - x3 You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsCm  Dm  D#  Dm7  Fm  G  Gm  G#  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
