G D
Okay, I'm finished now
Dm C
And I kept my faith for long enough
Cm G
And I hope I'm old and fairly sober
D7 Cmaj7
If I'm let down
G D
Maybe you keep me around
Dm C Cm
For the constant affirmations
G
While I scrounge for understanding
D7 Cmaj7
And fall out
C
I'll let you win and I'll let you tie
G D
The ribbon to my hair
C
Just so that we could come back to this
G D
If we really cared
C
The morning gates stay open
G D
If you had a thought that I'd be there
Cmaj7
Oh, I'd be there
G D Dm C
Ooh, ooh
Cm G D C
Ooh
G D
Know we could use a break
Dm C Cm
Because I can't feel my feet
G
Carried you all the way upstairs
D Cmaj7 B
So you can sleep and I can think
E G#m A
Stand guard when I am near
E G#m A
Clinging on to everything you fear
E G#7 Am
Keeping mе close while you hold me out and say
B B7
"I don't lovе you that way"
E G#m A
Harbor myself away from everyone else
E G#m
I'm half-awake and intimate
A
Eyes closed and I'll commit
E G#7
What I wish I had with you
Am
I'll pretend until it's true
B B7 B
I don't love you that way
E G#m A
Swallow the pill, it's only fair that I hear
E G#m A
Know myself better than I have in years
E G#7 Am
I don't know why I have to defend what I feel
B
I try
E G#m A
Stand your guard when I am near
E G#m A
Loathe me until you're reminded of the deal
E G#7 Am
One of us knows when you hold me out and say
B6 B E
You don't love me that way
G#m A
E G#m A
E G#7 C#dim7 Am
E B D
