Well I'm not feeling myself today

Just a figure in a big monopoly game

Struggle is the price you pay

You get just enough just to give it away
 

    C                              G
I'm sinking while they're floating away

Maybe       you could take a look at yourself lately

CHORUS:
 
C                      G
Things keep coming and I   keep wondering
 

    Am                  F           
And I start feeling the walls close in
 

C                        G
Things keep coming and I   keep stumbling
 

Am              F              C     G
I start feeling strong enough to break
 

Am              F              C     G    Am   F
I start feeling strong enough to break
 

I've been running through my mind today
Somebody has to catch your hypocricy
No one ever takes the blame
But everyone is searching for a cure to the pain
Nothing ever seems to change
Oh, nothing ever seems to change
We just play like broken records in a deaf man's charade

Maybe you could take a look at yourself lately
Maybe you could take a look at yourself lately
Maybe you could take a look at yourself lately
Things keep coming and I keep wondering
And I start feeling the walls close in
Things keep coming and I keep stumbling
I start feeling strong enough to break
I start feeling strong enough to break

SOLO:
 
Solo can be played in the key of C 

 
OUTRO:

I start feeling strong enough...
Oh yeah
Strong enough to break
Strong enough to break
