Intro
Am F C - C2 - C
[Verse 1]
Am
I wrote you a letter
F
Asked your best friend to send it
C C2 C
But took to the sea before you could have read it
Am F
Retreated to snowcapped waters of the unknown
C C2 C
Extracted my heart while it was still beating
Am
But glowing and red
F
And I swear that sweat would
C C2 C
Envelop your arms if you broke down and held it
[Chorus]
Am F
I swear I'm a good man
C C2 C
I swear I'm a good man
Am F C C2 C
So why don't you love me back?
[Verse 2]
Am F
Instead of twisting up words you just sat there in silence
C C2 C
In wind burnt homes sighing rays from a sunset
Am F
And all I could hear was the sound of the wasp nest
C C2 C
My head made a home for the hum of the insects
Am F
But my hands shake and shudder at the mention
C C2 C
Of half written reasons why we'll only be friends
[Chorus]
Am F
I swear I'm a good man
C C2 C
I swear I'm a good man
Am F C C2 C
So why don't you love me back?
