C                                       F           C
Some bumper sticker wisdom while you're walking the plank
C                      F               C
I love you, I'm sorry, please help me, thanks
C                                 F         C
The illusion of protection in the face of a tank

[Chorus]

           Dm
You were a student
           Em
You were a soldier
           F
You were a symbol
                G
They made you a martyr

[Verse 2]

C                      F               C
I love you, I'm sorry, please help me, thank you
C                                       F           C
When the nationalist demagogues eat the desperately confused
C                      F               C
I love you, I'm sorry, please help me, thank you
C                                   F          C
We're so far past civility it feels useless to argue

[Chorus]

               Dm
But love isn't passive
             Em
A trick or a tactic
              F
Tried to call action
               G
So, go let 'em have it

[Bridge]

       F       C                   F           C
When I open my perspective from my fear of the world
        F              C         C/B    C
For the daughter I was trying to raise
         F            C          F            C
With the total sum of everything asleep in my lap
        F              C         C/B
I could hear I was the one in my way
         F       C      F                 G
You said life is sweet, but my brain's got teeth

I love you, I'm sorry, please help me, thank you
C                                           F      C
You said acceptance and forgiveness, I said nobody asked you
C                      F               C
I love you, I'm sorry, please help me now
C                                 F           C
I have to drop it sometime, but I hate that I have to

[Chorus]

               Dm
Oh, but it saved me
                   Em
Oh, but it changed me
                 F
It shaped and remade me
                 G
Oh, what it gave me

[Bridge 2]

      F             C                  F          C
I was burned out on obsessing with the end of the world
        F              C          C/B    C
And the daughter I was helping to raise
         F            C          F           C
With the total sum of everything awake in my lap
        F                  C         C/B
I could hear what you were trying to say
         F       C      F                 G
You said life is sweet, but my brain's got teeth
         F       C      F                 G
You said life is sweet, but my brain's got teeth
         F       C      F           G
You said life is sweet, if I let it be
