Artist -- Tilly and the Wall Song -- The Freest Man Album -- Bottoms of Barrels Tabbed by -- Lainason C, F, Dm, G C There's a boy I know, he has a heart of glass F It is gold inside but it has crystallized Dm It is beautiful but in its tragedy G It is hard to hold without shattering C He calls himself at night, in soft over-chords F Keeps coming back to it, his voice and echo coarse Dm Till the sound's so thick it turns the sky to smoke G And the greyest days the predictions told C But this boy I know, he is pure of soul F Just gets lost sometimes in his chemicals Dm Under a coat of night, it's oh-so-comforting G And that first breaking light becomes his enemy C He calls so late tonight, it is 4 a.m. F He is drunk, he can't find his apartment Dm I don't like how it feels when I think of him G All hooded in black, lost and stumbling F G Am The days start to fade out of the frame F C G Like they're blurring into someone else's name C You try your hardest to rewind the tapes F But you're prepared every day to make the same mistakes Dm Step out of that life G It's nowhere near your time C Just remember you called it all bullshit F Well, it is and if you stop giving into it Dm G You can walk away the freest man C This boy I know lives in a bell jar F It is balancing upon his pedestal Dm He's trying not to upset his conscious G Afraid it's so fallen that no one will catch him C But I've been there too and I swear to god F If I can help you, please, you gotta tell me how Dm I know you've been away and it can break you down G And I don't want you gone F G Am All the cracks you see can be repaired F C G And if you start to fall, we will be there C Don't drown yourself in all your old regrets F 'Cause all the heaviness will steal away your breath Dm Step out of that life G It's nowhere near your time C And don't forget you called it all bullshit F It still is and if you stop giving into it Dm G You will walk away the freest man C Shake your head F Loosen your grip Dm Raise up your fist G You are the freest man C Open your mouth F Scream it out loud Dm Forget all your doubt G You are the freest man C, F, Dm, G
