Overweight Uke tab by Blue October

F
Ever carried the weight of another?
          C    B/C
For how long?
F
I walk as far as they need to recover
          C
For how long? 


F
I want to carry a piece of who I was before
F
So when I hit the wall, I really hit the wall
C
I want to tear away the death again
C
A whiter shade of fucking meth again
F
I want to stick to clues, I want to come unglued
F
I want to shape the world to fit the way you move
C
Oh, should I listen for a dress size?
F
I owned up, I've grown up, do you remember me?
F
I showed up and so what if I'm the used to be
C
I'm here to tell you that I'm sorry I was sorry
C
But I'm happy that you're happy
F
This is no longer about me
F
Trade rules, switch sides for your beautiful eyes
F
Let him be you through your beautiful cries
C
Let him hold you up so you can touch affordable skies
C
Live your life just like a dream
C
Without the pain of goodbyes
(n/c)
Goodbye!

F
I been a drunk disrespectful little street punk
F
Unlock the back of my trunk
C
You see, you take this bat
C
And bash my head into the street again
F
No-ones around so I keep beating it
F
Pull my hair back, look me in the eye
F
There's a self-destructive meaning in the bleeding of a guy
C
It's the guilt of what reality has given me
C
Making sense of all mistakes and my stupidity
F
And when you're sick you seem to think
F
You've failed eternally
F
And that the people you let in are only crumbling
F
When you're sick of faking life in this recovery
C
When my decision paved the road
C
That lies in front of me
F
So to my friends that even call but I don't call back
F
I want you deep inside my heart upon a hill
C
It seems to hide sometimes and run away and wonder
C
I'm really sick of saying sorry but I will
