[Verse 1]
      D
When somebody asks how I am
F#m                E
I tell a lie nine times out of ten
         D
'Cause they always leave like the wind
   F#m                  E
If I tell the truth, if I let them in

[Pre-Chorus]
D                F#m          E
How'd it get so hard to keep going, going
D                  F#m
When I've come so far?
         N.C.
Tell me, how'd it get so fucking dark?

[Chorus]
D
Every night
F#m                          E
Staring at the ceiling, I'm wondering why
D
All my life
     F#m                       E
The mountains get steeper the higher I climb
     D                     E
I'm back at the bottom, I can't see the light
   F#m                          E
I pray to who's listening that someday I'll find
    D
The other side
F#m    E
Other side

[Verse 2]
      D
They say good things come with a price
     F#m                              E
I'm not sure the weight's worth what I've sacrificed
   D
I can't tell what's wrong from what's right
        F#m                E
Holding on to a dream, or letting it die

[Pre-Chorus]
D                F#m          E
How'd it get so hard to keep going, going
D                  F#m
When I've come so far?
               N.C.
Feels like I'm broken

[Chorus]
D
Every night
F#m                          E
Staring at the ceiling, I'm wondering why
D
All my life
     F#m                       E
The mountains get steeper the higher I climb
     D                     E
I'm back at the bottom, I can't see the light
   F#m                          E
I pray to who's listening that someday I'll find
    D
The other side
F#m    E
Other side

[Bridge]
     D           E
I'm fine, fine, fine
                F#m                  E
It's all in my head, it's all in my head
            D           E
I said I'm fine, fine, fine
                F#m                  E         D   F#m
It's all in my head, it's all in my head until
  E          D
Until, 'til somebody asks how I am
    F#m            E
And I have to lie again and again

[Chorus]
D
Every night (Every night)
  F#m                        E
Staring at the ceiling, I'm wondering why
D
All my life (Oh-oh-oh)
     F#m                       E
The mountains get steeper the higher I climb
     D                     E
I'm back at the bottom, I can't see the light (Can't see the light)
   F#m                          E
I pray to who's listening that someday I'll find (Someday I'll find)
    D
The other side (Ahh-ooh-ooh)
F#m    E
Other side

[Outro]
N.C.
I just wanna know it's gonna get better

It has to get better

I have to get better
