[Intro]
Ebm   Gb   Bmaj7


[Verse 1]
Ebm                            Gb                  Bmaj7
Talking to the wall 'cause, at least, I hear an echo-oh, oh-oh (Oh, oh-oh)
Ebm                       Gb                   Bmaj7
Carrying my cross 'til my spirit has to let go-oh, oh-oh (Oh, oh-oh)
Ebm             Gb
Gave up finding one good reason
Bmaj7                                         Bb
I've stopped trying to stop this bleedin', no-oh


[Pre-Chorus]
                         Bmaj7
Runnin' out of all these alibis
                                  Bb
(When they ask me how I'm holding up)
                     Bbm
I can feel me cavin' in
        NC
And now all that I can say


[Chorus]
Bmaj7     Ebm               Bbm
It is, it is, it is what it is
        Ebm      Bbm
All the things I couldn't change
Bmaj7      Ebm            Bbm
I lay with someone else's sins
       Ebm       Bbm
Let my soul just fly away
Bmaj7             Ebm
All the way up to heaven's light
Bbm                           B
I pound those gates with no reply
Ebm               Bbm
Oh-oh-oh-oh, ooh, ooh


[Verse 2]
Ebm                   Gb                     Bmaj7
I feel everything and nothing at the same time (Oh, I've gone so numb)
        Ebm                   Gb              Bmaj7
Oh, the pain is so exquisite, I don't even ask why (Oh, but here you come)
       Ebm                           Gb
You're walking on the water that I'm drownin' in
Bmaj7                                            Bb
Thought I heard a whisper, was it just the wind again?


[Pre-Chorus]
                           Bmaj7
Oh, the trail of blood I'm followin'
                              Bb
(Followin', followin', followin')
                      Bbm
And if I'm the one to blame
        NC
I guess all that I can say


[Chorus]
Bmaj7     Ebm               Bbm
It is, it is, it is what it is
        Ebm      Bbm
All the things I couldn't change
Bmaj7      Ebm            Bbm
I lay with someone else's sins
       Ebm       Bbm
Let my soul just fly away
Bmaj7             Ebm
All the way up to heaven's light
Bbm                           B
I pound those gates with no reply
Ebm               Bbm
Oh-oh-oh-oh, ooh, ooh


[Bridge]
         B                Ebm
Oh, when I grow numb, but I can't weep
Bbm
Wake up but I don't sleep
B      Ebm               Bbm
And I didn't choose this hell
         B            Ebm      Bbm
Oh, when I'm the wolf among the sheep
                   Abm
Wake up but I don't sleep
                       Gb
Father, save me from myself, ooh-hm

[Outro]
B Ebm Bbm                          B
(Hm-mm)    It is, it is, it is, it is
Ebm Bbm
Hm, yeah-yeah
       B                      Ebm
And my throat's gone numb, my words go dry
    Bbm                 B
But you alone, keep me alive
Ebm                         Bbm
It is, it is, it is what it is
