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

Bridge:
F# Fm
And I’ve been hoping
A#m
For clearer vision
C#
and open eyes I want
D#m
to stop wasting all
F# F
my time keeping score
F# F
And stop existing for
A#m
all this wishing and

asking for What I

don’t have when I’ve
F#
got so much that
F/A A#m G# A#m G# A#m G# A#m
