Reinventing Your Exit Lyrics

Reinventing Your Exit (Acoustic)
Underoath
Underoath never released this song as an acoustic version, but Aaron has
played it acoustic live before, so this is based off of that version (found
here: http://www.youtube.com/watch'v=fnaX0CRVkyg). I've made a few minor
changes I've made that I think make it sound better. (Namely, changing the
intro from just strumming Am9 for 4 bars into a fingerpicked progression that
lasts 8 bars and sounds very nice.)
The song can be played in Drop D or standard, but Aaron plays it in Drop D,
and that's by far the easier way to play of the two. That being said, I'm
writing out the chords in Drop D. So if you want to play it in standard, you
can figure out how to do an F6sus2 yourself, because my hands can't contort
like that.
In the verses, when you see (Cmaj7), you can either play that chord or
continue playing Am9. Either way sounds fine. Chords followed by an
asterisk* are fingerpicked.
Intro (x2)
Am9* Cmaj7* F6sus2* G6no3*
12th and Hide on a Sunday
Feeling like we're gold
And we're nothing short of invincible
Invincible
Invincible
It starts again
Can you feel it?
It takes your breath away
Stop saying that we're invincible
It's round and round
You're uninviting, unrewarding
And I'm misinforming you
Misinforming you
We all want to be
We want to be somebody
Right now we're just looking for the exit
This is the way I would have done things
When we're up against the wall, up against the wall
You've got me up against your wall
This is the way I would have done things
When we're up against the wall, up against the wall
You've got me up against your wall
It's you and me on a Monday
The lies that we told
This is where we both go numb now
You broke my heart again this time
You're fading now, you crossed the line
su
You crossed the line
We all want to be,
We want to be somebody
Right now we're just looking for the exit
This is the way I would have done things
When we're up against the wall, up against the wall
You've got me up against your wall
This is the way I would have done things
When we're up against the wall, up against the wall
You've got me up against your wall
Reaching out for a hand that's not there
But you're not there and I'm not...
Bridge (x2 instrumental)
This is the way I would have done things
When we're up against the wall
Up against your wall
This is the way we should have done
Am9* Cmaj7* F6sus2
When we're up against a wall
Up against a wall
This is the way I would have done things
When we're up against the wall, up against the wall
You've got me up against your wall
This is the way I would have done things
When we're up against the wall, up against the wall
You've got me up against your wall
