[Intro]  
Am Fmaj7/C G6/D
Am Fmaj7/C G6/D 
  

[Verse]  
                    Am  
I was born inside a small town, I lost that state of mind  
                           Fmaj7/C
Learned to sing inside the Lord's house  
                          G6/D
But stopped at the age of nine  
                     Am  
I forget when I get awards now, the wave I had to ride  
                    Fmaj7/C                         G6/D
The paving stones I played upon, that kept me on my grind  
                   Am  
So blame it on the pain that blessed me with the life  
                               Fmaj7/C                               G6/D 
Friends and family filled with envy, when they should be filled with pride  
                      Am  
And when the world's against me, is when I really come alive  
                         Fmaj7/C                             G6/D 
And every day that Satan tempts me, I try to take it in my stride  
                       Am  
You know that I've got whisky with white lies, and smoke in my lungs  
        Fmaj7/C                               G6/D 
I think life has got to the point, I know without it's no fun  
          Am  
I need to get in the right mind and clean myself up  
          Fmaj7/C                         G6/D 
Instead I look in the mirror, questioning what I've become  
             Am  
Guess it's a stereotypical day for someone like me  
          Fmaj7/C              G6/D 
Without a nine-to-five job or a uni degree  
       Am  
To be caught up in the trappings of the industry  
            Fmaj7/C                        G6/D N.C.
Show me the locked doors I'll find another use for the key, and you'll see  
  

[Chorus]  
Fmaj7/C      C               G6add11            Am    G6add11  Fmaj7/C
   I'm well aware of certain things that can destroy a man like me  
              C                D/F# E N.C. Am  
But with that said give me one more  
 Fmaj7/C       G6/D           Am  
Another one to take the sting away  
     Fmaj7/C     G6/D             Am       
I am happy on my own so here I'll stay  
          Fmaj7/C     G6/D        Am  
Save your loving arms for a rainy day  
              Fmaj7/C       G6/D N.C.
And I'll find comfort in my pain eraser  
  

[Verse]  
                             Am  
I used to think that nothing could be better than touring the world with my songs  
             Fmaj7/C                            G6/D 
I chased the picture perfect life, I think they painted it wrong 
             Am  
I think that money is the route of all evil, and fame is hell  
  Fmaj7/C                     G6/D
Relationships and hearts you fix, they break as well  
    Am  
And ain't nobody want to see you down in the dumps  
               Fmaj7/C               G6/D
Because you're living your dream and this should be fun  
                     Am  
Please know that I'm not trying to preach like I'm reverend run  
          Fmaj7/C                        G6/D 
I beg you don't be disappointed with the man I've become  
      Am  
Conversations with my father on the A14  
    Fmaj7/C                   G6/D 
Age 12, telling me I've gotta chase those dreams  
        Am  
Now I'm playing for the people dad and they know me  
        Fmaj7/C                          G6/D 
With my beaten small guitar, wearing the same old jeans  
        Am  
Wembley stadium crowds, two hundred and forty thou  
           Fmaj7/C                  G6/D 
I may have grown up but I hope that Damian's proud  
           Am  
And to the next generation, inspiration's allowed  
             Fmaj7/C                         G6/D N.C.
The world may be filled with hate, but keep erasing it now, somehow  
  

[Chorus]  
Fmaj7/C      C               G6add11            Am    G6add11  Fmaj7/C
   I'm well aware of certain things that will befall a man like me  
              C                D/F# E N.C. Am  
But with that said give me one more  
 Fmaj7/C       G6/D           Am  
Another one to take the sting away  
     Fmaj7/C     G6/D             Am       
I am happy on my own so here I'll stay  
          Fmaj7/C     G6/D        Am  
Save your loving arms for a rainy day  
              Fmaj7/C       G6/D        Am
And I'll find comfort in my pain eraser  
              Fmaj7/C       G6/D        Am  
And I'll find comfort in my pain eraser  
              Fmaj7/C       G6/D        Am  
And I'll find comfort in my pain eraser  
  

[Bridge]  
                     Fmaj7/C
Welcome to the new show  
  G6/D                       Am  
I guess you know I've been away  
                        Fmaj7/C
Where I'm heading who knows  
   G6/D                  Am  
My heart will stay the same  
                     Fmaj7/C
Welcome to the new show  
  G6/D                       Am  
I guess you know I've been away  
                        Fmaj7/C
Where I'm heading who knows  
   G6/D N.C.    Am  
My pain eraser  
  

[Outro]  
              Fmaj7/C       G6/D        Am  
And I'll find comfort in my pain eraser  
              Fmaj7/C       G6/D        Am  
And I'll find comfort in my pain eraser  
              Fmaj7/C       G6/D        Am  
And I'll find comfort in my pain eraser  
              Fmaj7/C       G6/D  N.C.  
And I'll find comfort in my pain eraser
