Chord Citizen Soldier - Scarecrow

Capo : Fret 2

Am            G
 i chained my ghost up in a basement
Dm               F
 six feet back behind my eyes..
Am
 some nights i think
     G
this house is gonna cave in
Dm                F
 rejection has me terrified..

Am                 G
 now i hang from a wooden frame
             Dm
it keeps the crows away
        F
this is where i'm safe
Am                   G
 made of straw and a funny face
          Dm
turns out being fake
            F
can be your saving grace

Chorus
 Am                        C
  you can't kill me if i'm already dead..
 G
  buried alive
        D
 by the things that they said..
   F
 i killed myself but no one knows
            G
 you're not talking to me
        Em
 you're talking to a scarecrow..

 Am             C
  who i am only put me through hell..
 G                         D
  i'm bulletproof when i'm somebody else..
   F
 i killed myself but no one knows
            G
 you're not talking to me
        Em
 you're talking to a scarecrow..

Am        G
 i hid my heart up in the attic
Dm                   F
 stuck pieces deep inside these walls..
Am
 for every time
        G
i was ignored or called dramatic
Dm                     F
 i'm only safe feeling nothing at all..

Am                 G
 now i hang from a wooden frame
             Dm
it keeps the crows away
       F
better off insane
Am                        G
 i cut the skin to make a brand new face
                Dm
cause back when i was me
           F
i lived to be replaced

Chorus
 Am                        C
  you can't kill me if i'm already dead..
 G
  buried alive
        D
 by the things that they said..
   F
 i killed myself but no one knows
            G
 you're not talking to me
        Em
 you're talking to a scarecrow..

 Am             C
  who i am only put me through hell..
 G                         D
  i'm bulletproof when i'm somebody else..
   F
 i killed myself but no one knows
            G
 you're not talking to me
        Em
 you're talking to a scarecrow..

Am
secret suicide but no one can tell
      G/B
cause i'm just terrified of being myself
    Dm
the real me is inside
but no one can tell
           F
cause disappearing hurts less
than asking for help

Int. Am C G D
       F  G Em
