G#m C# I cry at the start of every movie F# B A# I guess 'cause I wish I was making things too Esus4 E But I'm working for the knife I used to think I would tell stories But nobody cared for the stories I had about No good guys Chorus: F# B I always knew the world moves on F# B A# I just didn't know it would go without me G# E I start the day high and it ends so low F# B A# 'Cause I'm working for the knife I used to think I'd be done by twenty Now at twenty-nine, the road ahead appears the same Though maybe at thirty, I'll see a way to change That I'm living for the knife Chorus: I always thought the choice was mine And I was right, but I just chose wrong I start the day lying and end with the truth That I'm dying for the knife You can simplify chords by removing barre
