8stops7 - Question Everything

[C]
Ever since I was a child
[F]                [Am]               [G]
You always said that I should understand the rules
[C]
You take some and give less
[F]            [Am]               [G]
Sit high above the rest...don't you

[C]     [F]
As I ask a simple questioN   Cuts me off with his reply
[Am]     [G]
He's been practicing for decades  Now he thinks I have the time
[C]      [F]
He flows in and out of riddles  Looking me straight in the eye
[Am]      [G]
But it seems like something's missing From the days when he was more my size

CHORUS:
[C]          [F]
Ten years older and I've finally found my pride
[C]             [F]
This old man comes rolling home to die
[C]             [Am]
Old feelings make it hard to decide
[F]
Just what it means to me

VERSE 2
[C]                 [F]
Everything exists 'tween black and white
[Am]       [G]
You can twist and distort the most blatant of lies
[C]                  [F]
Or just offer up solutions Practiced only in your mind
[Am]                  [G]
I've lost half my life to wisdom So forgive me if I
[C]   [F]
come off sounding bitter If my words push you away
[Am]       [G]
If I seem surprised to see you Lying here, in front of me
[C]                      [F]
Just consider what you're asking And give me a little time
[Am]                           [G]
'Cause I'm still having trouble breathing Cuz up to now I've never seen you cry

[chorus]
[C]          [F]
Ten years older and I've finally found my pride
[C]             [F]
This old man comes rolling home to die
[C]             [Am]
Old feelings make it hard to decide
[F]
Just what it means to me

BREAKDOWN:
[Am]                  [F]
"...No son of mine..."   Should I be sleeping?
[Am]                   [F]
"...No son of mine..."  You never understood
[Am]                       [F]
That I don't need your help Don't have to save me from myself
[Am]                     [F]                         [G]
Or take me out to prove      That I should live my life like you...

VERSE 3
[C]     [F]
As I ask a simple question   Cuts me off with his reply
[Am]      [G]
He's been practicing for decades   But I am listening this time
[C]                          [F]
He flows in and out of riddles   Stories change without the wine
[Am]      [G]
And at least he seems much clearer On how it feels to be my size

CHORUS
[C]          [F]
Ten years older and I've finally found my pride
[C]             [F]
This old man comes rolling home to die
[C]             [Am]
Old feelings make it hard to decide
[F]
Just what it means to me

Just what it means to me
Just what it means to me...
