[Verse 1]

D                        A
This body's closed until further notice
Bm                               G
Wandering too close will get you nowhere fast
D                                      A
I'm looking for an option that won't involve you at all
             Bm                        G
Some help to hoist my sail off of it's mast


[Chorus]

         G
And it's haunting me, but I feel fine
Bm
War of worlds in real time
G                                 Bm               A
Better off signing a truce that's drawn up in your name
G
But I hope you go home and admit you
Bm
Were wrong for the stress you put me through
G
Free me from the anchor
             Bm              A         G
Depart these seas and let me do what I have to do


   D                     A                     Bm                    G

[Verse 2]

D                           A
Am I so wrong to think that you are too?
      Bm                             G
Is it safe to be a pawn when all the rooks close in on you
  D                           A
I used to be afraid of time before I grew
    Bm
The sands will slip and the pain will grip
        G
And the guilt will trip all over you


[Chorus]

         G
And it's haunting me, but I feel fine
Bm
War of worlds in real time
G                                 Bm               A
Better off signing a truce that's drawn up in your name
G
But I hope you go home and admit you
Bm
Were wrong for the stress you put me through
G
Free me from the anchor
             Bm              A         G(hold)
Depart these seas and let me do what I have to

B|------10-7-----10-7-10---|
G|-/7-7------7-------------|
D|-------------------------|
A|-------------------------|
E|-------------------------|(ad libitum)


D  G  Bm  A           (you can only really hear the D here)
G  D  Bm  A           (and here the drum beats each new chord)


[Bridge]

D
Running around in circles
    G
The path I always choose
  Bm
I hate that I can't accept anything more
         A
Than the worn out soles of my shoes
     G
Just say something back
    D
And cut me some slack
    Bm
Headstrong in the world
         A
With the wind at my back.  (x2)


The second verse has some weird finger placement, instead of playing the 7th fret on 
the D string (which is kind of impossible) you could play the 2nd fret on the G string, 
though I find it meh. tips welcome/questions if it's not clear.
