C,                                            G,
Whoa-o...Ive been banging my head against the wall
                              Am,
Whoa-o...for so long it seems I knocked it down,
        F
yeah it got knocked down

C                                              G
Whoa-o...and the heating bill went through the roof
                                             Am,
Whoa-o...and the wall I knocked down was the proof
                          F
That my landlord needed to kick me out

Pre-Chorus
        C                         G
I got evicted now Im living on the street
            Am                    F
My spirits lifted...oh wait, that wasnt me
          C                          G
Too many turns have turned out to be wrong
              Am           F
This time I learned that, I knew it all along

Am              G
When car crashes occur
                    Dm
Then Ill be what you were
Am               G
When I see what I should
                    Dm
When I see that its good (that its good)


Chorus
   C             G
To experience the bittersweet
   F
To taste defeat
Then brush my teeth
C             G
Experience the bittersweet
    F
To taste defeat
Then brush my teeth
C                    G
Cause I struggle with forward motion
Am              F
I struggle with forward motion
C                   G             Am  F
We all struggle with forward motion
            C                         G
Cause forward motion is harder than it sounds
      Am
Well everytime I gain some ground
       F
I gotta turn myself around again
C                 G
Its harder than it sounds
     Am
Well everytime I gain some ground
         F
I gotta turn myself around again

Verse 2
C,                                            G,
Whoa-o...Ive been banging my head against the wall
                              Am,
Whoa-o...for so long it seems I got knocked out.
            F

Whoa-o...and the medical bills went through the
G
roof                                                                                     
                           Am
Whoa-o...and the scar on my head is the proof
                                  F
That Ill still remember this when I get old

Pre-Chorus
        C                         G
I got evicted now Im living on the street
            Am                    F
My spirits lifted...oh wait, that wasnt me
          C                          G
Too many turns have turned out to be wrong
              Am           F
This time I learned that, I knew it all along

Am              G
When I grasp the concept
                         Dm
Then Ill sleep where you slept
Am               G
When I know I need help
             Dm
When I allow myself (allow myself)


Chorus x2
