Verse
C#m
Wrap me in linen
A
And show me to my
C#m
tomb Fashioned from
sheets we’ve shared
A
And things I’ve yet
C#m
to prove And the glue
is the hope that any
promise I spoke To
A
my seat or myself or
any person of note
C#m
Would be made good
while I’ve still
A
got the time
Chorus 1:
E
It’s not as
depressing as
A
it sounds Just
want to be
E
prepared I’m
in no rush to
A
end it But look
B
at it from my
perspective
Verse 2:
C#m
I’ve messed with
A
confidence and never
C#m
understood If you’re
not afraid then you’re
A
not doing all you could
C#m
And I know that there’s
love because I’ve seen
it myself And I’ll be
A
damned if I don’t move
because I’m scared to
cross the road I’ve
C#m
never felt so much
A
that I’d arrived

Bridge:
A G#m
And I’ve been hoping
C#m
For clearer vision
E
and open eyes I want
F#m
to stop wasting all
A G#
my time keeping score
A G#
And stop existing for
C#m
all this wishing and
E
asking for What I
F#m
don’t have when I’ve
A
got so much that
G#/C C#m B C#m B C#m B C#m
I just ignore it
