Sisyphus

Em


[Verse]
Em              D Bm
Up, up that hill
  A                     G
Don’t look down, you’ll be there soon
Em                D
And I love you still
 Em                 Dmaj7        Em
Everything feels better when surrounded by
        A
this face
            Bm
I need to feel
         G
And I know
    G                A         D
Everything feels better when I go


[Instrumental]
D


[Verse 1]
D          Dmaj7                        Bm
I been so melodramatic with you on this climb
                       A                                   G
Can’t wait to feel shitty and tell you about it another time
           Bm
All of the blisterin’ mends in a callus
           D
Even our bickerin’ getting nostalgic,
                                       Dmaj7          D
all of those little thing meld into mountains in my mind, uh
            Dmaj7                              Bm
August came by, saw you say “bye”, wanna stay by your side
                                                                        G
What the fuck do you say when you know life cannot be the same but you try and try
                              Bm                              D
If those footsteps remained after time went by, something expirin’
D
I guess them butterflies in my stomach have been fuckin’ retirin’, uh (Yeah)


[Chorus]
                                     Bm
And I love you when I’m back on the climb
              A                        D
You’re only with me in the back of my mind now
        Dmaj7                     Bm
It’s a cycle it’s a path I can’t find, uh
    A                        D
Sisyphus, grimace, it’s the rock and roll, vulnerable
  Bm                                              D
Maybe it’s my fate and it’s all my fault, and I know
D                          Bm       A D
You got a mountain of your own (Yeah)


[Verse 2]
  D               Dmaj7              Bm
Wish it wouldn’t feel so broken to me
  Bm                                    A
Tried to take the edge off, but that only brought it closer to me, uh
 G                 Bm
And I just wanna live in a mo’fuckin’ log cabin
      D
In a place where you never have to call back, never have to log back in
                                     D                         Dmaj7
I’ve been backlogged in black fog, I fall back in, dreamin’ of times it wasn’t all madness
              Bm                                                      A
I just can’t mimic it though, I been in Sisyphus mode, lookin’ up the path of a tall mountain
                     G
And I keep getting stuck in these potholes
                A
Maybe I should just let the rock roll
                 D
I’ve been so close to the peak, I know,
                   G
But i’m tryna stay away from the drop though

So I don’t


[Chorus]
                                        Bm
They only love me when I’m back on the climb (Yeah)
              A                        D
You’re only with me in the back of my mind now
        Dmaj7                     Bm
It’s a cycle it’s a path I can’t find, uh
    A                        D
Sisyphus, grimace, it’s the rock and roll, vulnerable
  Bm                                              D
Maybe it’s my fate and it’s all my fault, and I know
D                          Bm       A D
You got a mountain of your own (Yeah)


[Bridge]
Bm         A
Watch your step
        D
Lifting slow
       Dmaj7
Giving no
               Bm
Imprint in the snow
                  A
And I love you to pieces
                      Dmaj7
Till that’s all we’re left with (Yeah)
               Bm
It’s all we’re left with
       A
In the end (Yeah, oh, yeah)


[Interlude]
Dmaj7  Bm


[Verse]
Bm                         A
And sometimes, I wanna disappear
                                        D
Been a shitty ass time and a shitty ass year
                            Dmaj7
But somehow, I’ma get me past here
