INTRO
|C / / / |Fmaj7/C / / / |C / / / |Fmaj7/C / / / |
VERSE 1
      C
In my rearview mirror dreams
        Fmaj7/C
I see myself staring back as a kid
                   C
Asking whether I believe in all those songs
               Fmaj7/C
The same way I did
          C
He says, “Now you’ve got a wife and kids
       Fmaj7/C
In the scars that life alone can give
             C
Do you still honestly believe
                      Fmaj7/C
That we were meant to live?”
PRE-CHORUS
              Dm7
It’s what the race car drivers say
                G
When they press on the gas
             Em7
It’s not the driving fast that kills you
         F2
It’s the stopping fast
            Dm7
So let this fire only burn
                G
With what could never last
CHORUS
                      Am7 Fmaj7 C  G
Every day I write the eu    -  lo   gy
                 Am7 Fmaj7 C  G
For everything I used     to   be
                       Am7 Fmaj7 C  G
I’m still aiming for a bet - ter     me
         Am7                 Fmaj7
I am the mosaic of a shattered man
             C
Broken and becoming
             G
Broken and becoming who I am
TURNAROUND
|Am7 / Fmaj7 / |C / G / |
VERSE 2
       Am7          Fmaj7        C
I am a patchwork tapestry of these defeats
          G
Finally admitting I was wrong
|Am7 / Fmaj7 / |C / G / |
        Am7             Fmaj7         C
All the shattered, ruined dreams that I release
                G
Broken parts of me I thought we’re strong
|Am7 / Fmaj7 / |C / G / |
    Am7               Fmaj7       C
The world I thought was always and forever
          G
And would never go away
|Am7 / Fmaj7 / |C / G / |
PRE-CHORUS
          Dm7
Scattered ashes of my past
           G
Finds that mosaic glue
    Em7
Only that which has been broken once
   Fmaj7
Is fit to use
       Dm7
You’re where all my broken parts are finally
G
Restitute
REPEAT CHORUS
TURNAROUND
|C / / / |Fmaj7/C / / / |C / / / |Fmaj7/C / / / |
BRIDGE
      C
In my rearview mirror dreams
      Fmaj7/C
In my rearview mirror dreams
       Cmaj7
I’m forever being born
            Fmaj7/C                  Fmaj7/C
As even the grave gives birth to green
HALF-CHORUS
                      Am7 Fmaj7 C  G
Every day I write the eu    -  lo   gy
                 Am7 Fmaj7 G
For everything I used     to   be
REPEAT CHORUS
FINAL CHORUS
