Em* D6 Cmaj7 Cadd9 Cmaj7
Em* D6
I've got the whole world on my back
Cmaj7 Cadd9 Cmaj7
I've got the whole world on my back
Em* D6 Cmaj7 Cadd9 Cmaj7
I've got the whole world on my back I do
Em*
Yeah, cause I'm 5'9, 165
D6
Established 1995
Cmaj7
Living like I'm not getting out alive
Cadd9 Cmaj7
And I'ma take a second just to tell you why
Em*
I had thoughts since 6th grade
D6
This world is not made for the sake
Cmaj7
of the people like me
Cadd9 Cmaj7
who can't see past their mistakes, and misdeeds
Em*
And I bleed the same blood you bleed
D6
So why are you trying to cut me?
Cmaj7
Why's there always something you want from me?
Cadd9 Cmaj7
Why can't you be happy for me?
Em*
But I'm not that kid on the phone
D6
screaming fuck this world I'm leaving
Cmaj7
Like when I was sixteen and,
Cadd9 Cmaj7
it still feels like I'm dreaming
Em*
When I call your phone and realize
D6
that I forgot to breathe in
Cmaj7
Forgot the grave that he's in
Cadd9 Cmaj7
I hope you know I mean it
Em*
When I say I'm only here today
D6
'cause this music keeps me breathing
Cmaj7
It's my only healing
I'm not alone if you can feel it
Em*
I'm not alone, if you know the bliss when I heard
D6
That girl don't slit her wrists no more
Cmaj7
From that time I reminisced at my show
Cadd9 Cmaj7
Told her there's reasons to stay don't go
Em*
Don't push your family away I know
D6
They don't understand all the pain you hold
Cmaj7
I'm just as sad know you're not alone
Cadd9 Cmaj7
Don't let your story go untold
Em*
I know you're here in spirit,
D6
Put on Deja Entendu
Cmaj7
The only time I'm sad now is
Cadd9 Cmaj7
when I think of you
Em*
I hope one day these kids get some of
D6
my lyrics tattooed but if I
Cmaj7
only helped one of them
Cadd9 Cmaj8
then I did it for all you
Em*
I don't know how she's doing,
D6
No we haven't stayed in touch
Cmaj7
But I helped her put the knife down
Cadd9 Cmaj7
and that means so fucking much
Em*
I hope one day these kids get some of
D6
my lyrics tattooed but if I
Cmaj7
only helped one of them
Cadd9 Cmaj7
then I did it, I did it
Em*
For you
D6
For you
Cmaj7 Cadd9 Cmaj7 Em*
For you
D6 Cmaj7 Cadd9 Cmaj7
I did it all for you

Yeah
You know, I just say wanna something real fast before I start this
There's a lot of things in this world that I care way too much about (on my back)
And music's definitely one of them
But music'sthe only one that's actually worth my time
(I've got the whole world)
And I'm about to tell you why (on my back, I do)
Yeah, 'cause I'm 5'9, 165
