Verse
=====
Bm F#m7 G A
Saving grace from her own father, he’s had six cigarettes and ten lagers
Bm F#m7 G A
Lies in the classroom are getting darker; belt buckles struggle every day is harder
Bm F#m7
Shaking hands, broken heart now sirens
G A
Tinted glass, questions asked in the white room
Bm F#m7 G E7
So many ways to feel and see love she said the love he gives me makes me feel numb
Pre-Chorus
==========
Em
And on the days when you’ve had enough
E7
I say these words
Em F#m7 (one strum)
For the people I love...
Chorus
======
Bm F#m7 G A
Mine, are the hands you can trust
Bm F#m7 G A
Scars, from a time you were lost
Bm F#m7 G
Slowly the blade turns to rust
Em F#m7 G
Remember these aren’t your fears, there just paper cuts

Verse
=====
Bm F#m7
She had monsters too big to be demons,
G G A
Prescribed medicine can’t describe feelings
Bm F#m7
Memories replay and they stole her hope
G G (one strum)
She knew this day would come and that she’d be alone
Bm F#m7
Kitchen floor on her own, no fight left
G G A
Heart beats slow, tears flow, last breath
Bm F#m7 G
Empty bottle on the floor as her eyes roll, back
Pre-Chorus
==========
E7
Then there’s a door slam, unknown footsteps
Em
She hears her name as her hand hits the light switch
E7
There’s a voice here to help new faces,
Em F#m7 (one strum)
Hand on the chest as she hears them say this
Chorus
======
Bm F#m7 G A
Mine, are the hands you can trust
Bm F#m7 G A
Scars, from a time you were lost
Bm F#m7 G A
Slowly the blade turns to rust
Em F#m7 G
Remember these aren’t your fears, there just paper cuts
Bridge
======
G A
When the pain, goes away
Bm F#m7
And you feel like there’s nothing behind you,
G A
The night, there’s a gun
Bm F#m7
And there’s nothing to keep you awake and it’s all, over, now
G A
And it’s all, over, now...
Chorus
======
Bm F#m7 G A
Mine, are the hands you can trust
Bm F#m7 G A
Scars, from a time you were lost
Bm F#m7 G A
Slowly the blade turns to rust
Em F#m7 G
Remember these aren’t your fears, there just paper cuts
