Intro
Dm A# F - F2 - F
[Verse 1]
Dm
I wrote you a letter
A#
Asked your best friend to send it
F F2 F
But took to the sea before you could have read it
Dm A#
Retreated to snowcapped waters of the unknown
F F2 F
Extracted my heart while it was still beating
Dm
But glowing and red
A#
And I swear that sweat would
F F2 F
Envelop your arms if you broke down and held it
[Chorus]
Dm A#
I swear I'm a good man
F F2 F
I swear I'm a good man
Dm A# F F2 F
So why don't you love me back?
[Verse 2]
Dm A#
Instead of twisting up words you just sat there in silence
F F2 F
In wind burnt homes sighing rays from a sunset
Dm A#
And all I could hear was the sound of the wasp nest
F F2 F
My head made a home for the hum of the insects
Dm A#
But my hands shake and shudder at the mention
F F2 F
Of half written reasons why we'll only be friends
[Chorus]
Dm A#
I swear I'm a good man
F F2 F
I swear I'm a good man
Dm A# F F2 F
So why don't you love me back?
