Okay, I'm finished now
A#m Ab
And I kept my faith for long enough
Abm D#
And I hope I'm old and fairly sober
A#7 Abmaj7
If I'm let down
D# A#
Maybe you keep me around
A#m Ab Abm
For the constant affirmations
D#
While I scrounge for understanding
A#7 Abmaj7
And fall out
Ab
I'll let you win and I'll let you tie
D# A#
The ribbon to my hair
Ab
Just so that we could come back to this
D# A#
If we really cared
Ab
The morning gates stay open
D# A#
If you had a thought that I'd be there
Abmaj7
Oh, I'd be there
D# A# A#m Ab
Ooh, ooh
Abm D# A# Ab
Ooh
D# A#
Know we could use a break
A#m Ab Abm
Because I can't feel my feet
D#
Carried you all the way upstairs
A# Abmaj7 G
So you can sleep and I can think
C Em F
Stand guard when I am near
C Em F
Clinging on to everything you fear
C E7 Fm
Keeping mе close while you hold me out and say
G G7
"I don't lovе you that way"
C Em F
Harbor myself away from everyone else
C Em
I'm half-awake and intimate
F
Eyes closed and I'll commit
C E7
What I wish I had with you
Fm
I'll pretend until it's true
G G7 G
I don't love you that way
C Em F
Swallow the pill, it's only fair that I hear
C Em F
Know myself better than I have in years
C E7 Fm
I don't know why I have to defend what I feel
G
I try
C Em F
Stand your guard when I am near
C Em F
Loathe me until you're reminded of the deal
C E7 Fm
One of us knows when you hold me out and say
G6 G C
You don't love me that way
Em F
