Dm C Gm So you are tired of us A# Am So rest your head Gm C Gm Turning back fourteen years A# Am Of what I did and said Gm C Gm So you are breathing disaster A# Am I did what I was told C Gm A# But I was a man born invisible Am Was it something I said or some kind of joke? C Gm So you are tired as the sun A# Am Are you with or without a friend? Gm C Gm A# Bring me back everything caught in your shield Let everything else descend So you are tired as the sun Are you with or without a friend? Bring me back everything caught in your shield Let everything else descend So you are seething with laughter Was it really all just a joke? I was a man indivisible When everything else was broke So you are tired of even my kiss So go back to your den Throwing out everything left in your field When there was nothing left to defend So you are dreaming of after Was it really all just for fun? I was the man still in love with you When I already knew it was done So you are tired of me So rest your head Turning back all that we had in our life While I return to death You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA#  Am  C  Dm  Gm  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
