C                          F              C
Some nights I stay up cashing in my bad luck.
C                           G
Some nights I call it a draw.
C                                     F                      C
Some nights I wish that my lips could build a castle.
F           C                       G
Some nights I wish they'd just fall off
F                 C                F         C
But I still wake up, I still see your ghost.
                   F             C               G
Oh Lord, I'm still not sure what I stand for, oh.
F           C                 F      C
What do I stand for? What do I stand for?
F                                          G                     C  F C F C G
Most nights, I don't know anymore (oh woah oh oh)

This is it, boys. This is war.
F                 C
What are we waiting for?
F                    C                 G
Why don't we break the rules already?
    C
I was never one to believe the hype.
F                         C
Save that for the black and white.
          F                         C
I try twice as hard and I'm half as liked,
G
But here they come again to jack my style
                      C
And that's alright
               F                 C
I found a martyr in my bed tonight.

    F                      C
She stops my bones from wandering
     G

Just who I am, who I am, who I am.

C                F             C  F              G

Yeah, oh who am I mmmm mmmmm

Well, some nights, I wish that this all would end

Cause I could use some friends for a change

C                                  F                            C

What do I stand for? What do I stand for?

Most nights, I don't know anymore

So this is it? I sold my soul for this?
F                                    C

Washed my hands of that for this?

F                                       G

I miss my mom and dad for this?

No. When I see stars,I see stars,that's all they are.

When I hear songs, they sound like a swan.

So come on. Oh, come on. Oh, come on. Oh, come on!

Five minutes in and I'm bored again.
