Some Nights

[Intro]
C                     F          C
Some nights I stay up cashing in my bad luck
F              C        G
 Some nights I call it a draw
C                          F                C
Some nights I wish that my lips could build a castle
F              C                    G
 Some nights I wish they'd just fall off
      F          C
But I still wake up,
        F        C
I still see your ghost
              F         C           G
Oh, Lord, I'm still not sure what I stand for,
oh
F          C
 What do I stand for?
F          C
 What do I stand for?
Am                  G       F
Most nights I don't know anymore...

[Pre-Verse]
C         F  C      F  C     G F   C
Oh, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, whoa,  oh, oh,

F
This is it, boys,
C           F   C                   F   C
 this is warwhat are we waiting for? Why
                           G
don't we break the rules already?
  F            C              F              C
I was never one to believe the hype Save that
for the black and white
  F                C
I try twice as hard and I'm half as liked,
G
But here they come again to jack my style
         F
That's alright

[Pre-Chorus]
        F          C
I found a martyr in my bed tonight
F           C                     G
She stops my bones from wondering just who I am, who I am,
   F    C
who I am
F            C F C             G
Oh, who am I?     Mmm... Mmm...

[Chorus]
C
Well,
                        F        C
some nights I wish that this all would end
F                  C                G
'Cause I could use some friends for a change.
C                                 F         C
And some nights I'm scared you'll forget me again
    F               C
And some nights I always win,
G
I always win...
    F           C
But I still wake up,
  F             C
I still see your ghost
          F            C          G
Oh, Lord, I'm still not sure what I stand for,
  F
oh
        C      F
What do I stand for?
        C       Am
What do I stand for?
              G
Most nights I don't know...

My heart is breaking for my sister and the con that she
called "love"
G                                   Dm
When I look into my nephew's eyes...
