Verse
D
Your paper wings got ruined in the rain
G7
Coat hanger halo got rusted
D
The lace fell off the dress you made
G7
Your the saddest little angel
Mascara left a sour taste
[Chorus]
Bm F#m
And I wish that I was there when you took that fall
Bm F#m
I'm too weak to pick you up
Em G7
But I would've laid down in this puddle beside you
Em G7
'Cause it's all that I can do
F#
I didn't have the heart to tell you
A
It's really bad
It's really bad this time
[Verse II]
D
Like wild horses running, scared
G7
From a storm that's too much to bare
D
It's sad, the things you used to fear
G7
Don't seem so bad, they're not so bad
Don't let them scare you.
[Verse III]
Bm F#m
And I pushed your bed to the window today.
Bm F#m Em
You're still not well enough turned your visitors away.
G7
I fight these tears by your bedside
Em G7
How dare I let you see me cry
F#
I didn't have the heart to tell you
A
It's really bad
It's really bad this time
[Verse IV]
D
Your wings weren't meant for this
This weather that no one guessed
F#m
No calm before the storm
F#
And it's gone before the panic sets
D
So let's take our time with this,
Bleach the mud from off your dress,
F#m F#
You make such an innocent mess in all of this.
[Chorus]
Bm F#m
And I wish that I was there when you took that fall
Bm F#m
I'm too weak to pick you up
Em G7
But I would've laid down in this puddle beside you
Em G7
'Cause it's all that I can do
F#
I didn't have the heart to tell you
A
It's really bad
It's really bad this time
