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