Verse
G
So you think that you have found
Em
A better life that you should live
C
And you're through givin' it all away
Am
I wish there's something I could say

G
Like the time you looked into the mirror
Em
And saw someone else lookin' back
C
I wish I could find the words
Am
But there's nothing that even comes close

Chorus
D
'Cause there ain't nobody ever looked at me
Am
Without lookin' right through me
D
There ain't nobody ever looked at me
Am                        C
Without lookin' right by me
G                D/F#          Em      Em/D     Am7
And you can't go on when the knife feels like justice

Verse 2
G
When the sun dies down and the air grows cold
Em
And the moon plays tricks in the night
Am
Crawlin' low like a snake out of sight
D
Your guide is the northern light

G
You wanna laugh, say I'm insane
Em
Don't have the sense to come in from the rain
C                            Am
I know how to keep myself between the drops

Chorus
D                        Dsus4    D
There ain't nobody ever looked at me
Am
Without lookin' right through me
D                        Dsus4    D
There ain't nobody ever looked at me
Am                    C
Without lookin' right by me
G             D/F#          Em    Em/D        Am7
And you can't go on when the knife feels like justice

Breakdown (intro again)

Verse 3
G
So you think that you have won me over
Em
By settin' me on fire
C
With the sound of your beating heart
Am
And you're burnin' hot desire

G
Like the time I looked at your reflections
Em
And saw someone else lookin' back
C
It's a shame things happen that way
Am
'Cause there's no one that even comes close

Chorus

And there ain't nobody ever looked at me
Am
Without lookin' right through me

There ain't nobody ever looked at me
Am       Em/B          C
Without lookin' right by me

G         D/F#                Em    Em/D       Am7
And you can't go on when the knife feels like justice
G              D/F#             Em    Em/D     Am7
I said you can't go on when the blade tears inside you
G             D/F#             Em     Em/D     Am7       Am
You can't go on when the knife feels like justice
