not necessarily the correct chord variations, but they work
(intro)
G Bm F F
G Bm F Em
G Bm F
I miss the days my mind would just rest quiet
G Bm F Em
My imagination hadn't turned on me yet
G Bm F
I used to let my words wax poetic
C Cm
But it melted a puddle at my feet now
G Bm F
It is a calcifying crime, it's tragic
G Bm F Em
I've turned to petrified past life baggage
G Bm F
I want to disappear and just start over
C Cm
So here we are
C
And I'll breathe again...
(chorus)
Em G
Cause I have sent for a warrior
D
From on my knees, make me a Hercules
Em G D
I was meant to be a warrior please
Make me a Hercules
G Bm F Em
I've lost a grip on where I started from
I wish I'd thought ahead and left a few crumbs
I'm on the hunt for who I've not yet become
But I'd settle for a little equilibrium
There is a war inside my heart gone silent
Both sides dissatisfied and somewhat violent
The issue I have now begun to see
I am the only lonely casualty
This is not the end though...
(chorus)
(bridge)
Am Em
This is my darkest hour
Em D
A long road has lead me out here
Am Em C Am
But I only need turn around to face the light
C D
And decide flight or fight
