Ear-ly War-ning
[Verse 1 - 360]
AmG
You started having these migraines at a ripe age
FG
Doctor gave you codeine just to ease a slight pain
Am G
Started crippling you by the age of 14
FG
So the doctor decided to give you morphine
Am G
That was the first time you tasted what the high was like
F G
Your brain was so fragile you weren't in your right mind
Am G
We never understood that when you used to have it
FG
We were seeing the beginnings of a future addict
Am G
And that's a honest mistake the doctor had made
F G
He only meant to help you in a positive way
Am G
And pointing fingers in this whole shit is not going change
F G
That we all awoken a demon that was locked in a cage
AmG
I know the drug way of life is a lonely one
FG
I hate that it went and attracted both of us
Am G
And opiates are so hard to overcome

Playing Russian roulette with a needle is a loaded gun

Early warnings never come

Life was good when we were young
Am G F
Just like the early morning sun
G
We will rise up
Am G Am* Am* G

[Verse 2 - 360]
Am G
We didn't know you were getting bullied everyday
F G
Tortured, but wasn't strong enough to ever say
AmG F
School is such a tender age it molds you in every way
G
Forms and forever shapes your mental state
Am G
After copping more abuse from the friends you made
FG
All you wanted was to get some fucking better mates
AmG
So when your head would ache, you just medicate
FG
Now you found a better way to get away from any pain
AmG
So while you crying and lying in your bed awake
FG
You know when the doc injects your veins it'll set you straight
Am G
We didn't know because you didn't have to ever chase
F G
Saying you got a migraine would take you to a better place
Am G
Yo, this shit is going overboard
F G
Too deep for me to help you stay afloat at all
Am G
All we've got left is hope so we hope for more
F FF
'cause having false hope's better than no hope at all

[Verse 3 - 360]
AmG
There's a day I can't wipe from my memory though
FG
Like a episode of my life that I'm forgetting to close
Am G
He was done from life and ready to go
F G
Ready to hang his head in shame but at the end of a rope
Am G
His addiction has ruined everything though
F G
Pushed away all his family and friends that he knows
Am G
We could of helped but he was too ashamed to let us all know
F G
We thought he found us annoying so we left him alone
Am G
For some reason Mum and Dad was sensing it though
FG
Their instinct kicked in so they went to his home
AmG
He was trying to get clean so he went it alone
F G
So many downers he would of ended up dead on his own (yeah)
Am G
I got a call that made me burst into tears }
FG }
I never heard my Dad crying, it hurt me to hear } Fingerpick Chords
Am G }
Told him it was a blessing it could be worse than it is }
FF F }
Bring him home to those that love him for the person he is }

Am G
Now I'm stoppin' at a red light
F G
Wake up on the wrong side, now
Am G
Stoppin at a red light

Gettin off this ride, now
