    Dm            A#
You might as well surrender now
       C               Am
You'll never hold that stance
     Dm     
With all my words
  A#
I can't find one
   C                Am
To help you understand

     Dm      
It's not too late
     A#
Take up the cup
C                         Am
Put down your weapons and choose
    A#
But you say life's so unfair
    C
All you say is life's so unfair.

   A#                    C
Oh you can ill afford to hold to these views
   A#               
Oh you need something to blame
    Am            A#
But it's you, yes it's you
C               Dm~~~
It's your truth

(Restart strumming Dm)

Someone made you
       
I don't know if you're sick
A#                        Dm
  I comfort, you run away
Dm                           
   My sympathy, you twist it.
A#   
  Your reflex gets in the way.
Dm  
  You mother me, I son you.
A#            C
  You act up, I can't get through.

Dm                       
  These footsteps so ancient.
A#             C
  In your eyes I'm your infant.
Dm 
  You're ancient, full circle.
A#           C      
  In my eyes you're my infant.
Dm
  Dead ball in our court,
            A#        C
We've got a dead fall in our court.

(The melody part restarts)
Dm, A#, C, Am (Play 3 times)

         A#      
You just say life's so unfair
         C
You just say life's so unfair
A#
You need something to blame
         Am            A#
But it's you, yes it's you
C         Dm~~~
It's your truth
