E B
Okay, I'm finished now
Bm A
And I kept my faith for long enough
Am E
And I hope I'm old and fairly sober
B7 Amaj7
If I'm let down
E B
Maybe you keep me around
Bm A Am
For the constant affirmations
E
While I scrounge for understanding
B7 Amaj7
And fall out
A
I'll let you win and I'll let you tie
E B
The ribbon to my hair
A
Just so that we could come back to this
E B
If we really cared
A
The morning gates stay open
E B
If you had a thought that I'd be there
Amaj7
Oh, I'd be there
E B Bm A
Ooh, ooh
Am E B A
Ooh
E B
Know we could use a break
Bm A Am
Because I can't feel my feet
E
Carried you all the way upstairs
B Amaj7 G#
So you can sleep and I can think
C# Fm F#
Stand guard when I am near
C# Fm F#
Clinging on to everything you fear
C# F7 F#m
Keeping mе close while you hold me out and say
G# G#7
"I don't lovе you that way"
C# Fm F#
Harbor myself away from everyone else
C# Fm
I'm half-awake and intimate
F#
Eyes closed and I'll commit
C# F7
What I wish I had with you
F#m
I'll pretend until it's true
G# G#7 G#
I don't love you that way
C# Fm F#
Swallow the pill, it's only fair that I hear
C# Fm F#
Know myself better than I have in years
C# F7 F#m
I don't know why I have to defend what I feel
G#
I try
C# Fm F#
Stand your guard when I am near
C# Fm F#
Loathe me until you're reminded of the deal
C# F7 F#m
One of us knows when you hold me out and say
G#6 G# C#
You don't love me that way
Fm F#
