G
Here in the wreckage
    C
The winter is hard
  G
I sleep in the same clothes
       C
That I dragged through the mud

[Verse]
           Am
And if you ask me
Em
Nothing's changed
        Am
There's nowhere else I can go
     Em
So I stay

[Verse]
Am
We're writhing rats
        Em
We make beds in the straw
            Am
And then we build houses
          Em
Paint our names on the door

[Chorus]
           Em
And if you ask me again
        Em
Is this life?
N.C.
I don't see I have a choice

But I still smile

[Verse]
G
And bide my time
Am
I who have no roots
Em
And nowhere to go
    Am
And as for the future
        Em
Well, I really don't know

[Chorus]
Em
But if you ask me
Em
I will nod
Em
But if you ask me...

           Here I am

Here I am

[Verse]
Am
My dear wife
       Em
And my children of God
    Am
The borders were already drawn for us

[Verse]
Am
Hold on to life
        Em
In this refuge of dirt
     Am
And search for a place you can breathe again
           Em
It's not a crime

[Verse]
Em
I'd love to see you again
Am
Sometime soon
    Em
But will you give back to me now
Am
What you stole?
