Intro: Em C Em C   
     
      Em    
I was climbing now I'm falling,    
            C    
I've been pushed off by a man,    
        Em                           C    
who has made it to the top and now defends it 'cos he can,    
         Am                            Em    
and I have found a breach in his front line    
      Em     
I was open now I'm hidden,    
          C    
from the danger of his words,    
         Em                          C    
I have found a good position and i'll play for what he's worth    
      Am                         Em    
and he will find nowhere left to hide    
     
Chorus:    
        C                           
I will lift her love and I'll break your spirit,    
        Em    
I will dig a hole and I'll throw you in it,    
      C                                             Am    
only time will tell if we're all just cynics on the run.    
                                 Em    
if we're all just cynics come undone.    
     
     
      Em     
I was losing now we're drawing    
                C    
and I'm not afraid to draw my blood    
Em                               C    
I'm not backing down so I'd surrender cause you should    
              Am                                   Em    
and face the truth you raise the flag I'll tear it down.    
    Em                         
You may have won the battle    
          C    
but i'll take the fight to you    
          Em    
and your flag is on the ground    
           C                                 Am    
and your bones they rattle through, as they break you,    
                        Em    
your fear has now come true    
     
Bridge:    
        C                           
I will lift her love and I'll break your spirit,    
        Em    
I will dig a hole and I'll throw you in it,    
      C                                             Am    
only time will tell if we're all just cynics on the run.    
                                 C    
if we're all just cynics come undone    
                          Am    
All just waiting for the gun,    
                    C    
we are tied to the truth,    
                         Am    
the tie that binds me to you    
                   C    
I'm acting on my words,    
                      Am    
with all that I have heard,    
                 C    
with honesty in mind,    
     
you'll find    
      Em                                  C    
that I'm not the liar see the truth in my eyes!    
   Em                                    C    
No I'm not the liar see the truth in my eyes!    
     
Chorus:    
        C                           
I will lift her love and I'll break your spirit,    
        Em    
I will dig a hole and I'll throw you in it,    
      C                                             Am    
only time will tell if we're all just cynics on the run.    
                                 Em    
if we're all just cynics come undone.
