Verse
G#
I can always pick up books
C#
in the search of what I need
D# C#
but that doesn’t help me any
G#
if you’re impossible to read
D# C#
so if you love me, if you love me
G#
come clean
G#
these monsters in my closet
C#
are watching over me
D# C#
the days are getting shorter
G#
and at night it’s hard to sleep
D# C#
the combination of all of this
G#
is the death of everything
D# C#
so if you love me, if you love me
G#
hurry
G#
because I don’t think that wasting
C#
a second of this time
D# C#
would benefit the outcome
G#
of the life I had in mind
D# C#
I’ll refer to you as my special love
G#
the one that set me free
D# C#
so if you love me, if you love me
G#
come clean
D# C# G#
waiting around until things grow old
D# C# G#
I’m feeling lost in towns that were my home
D# C# G#
and if everything was easier before
D# C# G#
then we’ll go back to who we were
G#
so I’m picking up a book
C#
in the search of what I need
D# C#
from religion, to fiction
G#
being lost about at sea
D# C#
and all I can imagine
G#
is being brushed against your cheek
D# C#
so if you love me, if you love me
G#
come clean
