Verse
B
Your paper wings got ruined in the rain
E7
Coat hanger halo got rusted
B
The lace fell off the dress you made
E7
Your the saddest little angel
Mascara left a sour taste
[Chorus]
G#m D#m
And I wish that I was there when you took that fall
G#m D#m
I'm too weak to pick you up
C#m E7
But I would've laid down in this puddle beside you
C#m E7
'Cause it's all that I can do
D#
I didn't have the heart to tell you
F#
It's really bad
It's really bad this time
[Verse II]
B
Like wild horses running, scared
E7
From a storm that's too much to bare
B
It's sad, the things you used to fear
E7
Don't seem so bad, they're not so bad
Don't let them scare you.
[Verse III]
G#m D#m
And I pushed your bed to the window today.
G#m D#m C#m
You're still not well enough turned your visitors away.
E7
I fight these tears by your bedside
C#m E7
How dare I let you see me cry
D#
I didn't have the heart to tell you
F#
It's really bad
It's really bad this time
[Verse IV]
B
Your wings weren't meant for this
This weather that no one guessed
D#m
No calm before the storm
D#
And it's gone before the panic sets
B
So let's take our time with this,
Bleach the mud from off your dress,
D#m D#
You make such an innocent mess in all of this.
[Chorus]
G#m D#m
And I wish that I was there when you took that fall
G#m D#m
I'm too weak to pick you up
C#m E7
But I would've laid down in this puddle beside you
C#m E7
'Cause it's all that I can do
D#
I didn't have the heart to tell you
F#
It's really bad
It's really bad this time
