Lyrics & Chords

Full Song

Verse 1

F C

I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend

G C F

You could cut ties with all the lies that you’ve been living in

C

And if you do not want to see me again

G C

I would understand, I would understand

Chorus

F C

The angry boy, a bit too insane

G C

Icing over a secret pain

F

You know you don’t belong

C G

You’re the first to fight, you’re way too loud

C F

You’re the flash of light on a burial cloud

C G

Don’t jump tonight

Verse 2

F C

I know you think that I can’t understand

G C F

But I’ve been there too, I’ve felt the same as you

C

I’ve been there, so scared and alone

G C

Felt like it would never be gone

Chorus

F C

The angry boy, a bit too insane

G C

Icing over a secret pain

F

You know you don’t belong

C G

You’re the first to fight, you’re way too loud

C F

You’re the flash of light on a burial cloud

C G

Don’t jump tonight

Bridge

F C

Everyone’s got to face down the demons

G C F

Maybe today, we can put the past away

C G

I wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend

C F C

We could cut ties with all the lies that you’ve been living in

G

And if you do not want to see me again

C F

I would understand, I would understand

Chorus

The angry boy, a bit too insane

G C

Icing over a secret pain
