Eraser Chords by Mackenzie Johnson

Eraser Chords by Mackenzie Johnson

[Intro]
A Bm  G  A Bm  G  A

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

[Chorus]
     D           A                       Bm                  G
I'm well aware of certain things that can destroy a man like me
       D                      Em      G   Bm   Em  Bm
But with that said give me one more
    G                 A                 Bm
I am another one to take the sting away
    G                A          Bm     Em         
I am happy on my own so here I'll stay
 Bm        G          A           Bm
Save your loving arms for a rainy day
 Bm          G               A
And I'll find comfort in my pain eraser

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

[Chorus]
     D           A                       Bm                  G
I'm well aware of certain things that can destroy a man like me
       D                      Em        Bm   Em  Bm
But with that said give me one more
    G                 A                 Bm
I am another one to take the sting away
    G                A          Bm     Em         
I am happy on my own so here I'll stay
 Bm        G          A           Bm
Save your loving arms for a rainy day
 Bm     G                    A          Bm A Bm
And I'll find comfort in my pain eraser
        G                   A           Bm
And I'll find comfort in my pain eraser
        G                   A           Bm
And I'll find comfort in my pain eraser

[Bridge]
 G
Welcome to the new show
 A                            Bm
I guess you know I've been away
                    G
Where I'm heading who knows
  A                     Bm
My heart will stay the same
 Bm                G
Welcome to the new show
  A                        Bm
I guess you know I've been away
       G
Where I'm heading who knows
  A       Bm
My pain eraser

[Outro]
        G                   A           Bm
And I'll find comfort in my pain eraser
        G                   A           Bm
And I'll find comfort in my pain eraser
        G                   A           Bm
And I'll find comfort in my pain eraser
        G                   A           
And I'll find comfort in my pain eraser
