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
F C
The angry boy, a bit too insane
G C
Icing over a secret pain

You know you don’t belong
