I said I told you everything I left something out

That I'm under lock and key, but you can probably tell

I'm a king of my...in a prison cell
PRE-CHORUS:
Am D Em C
I wanna return but all you do is turn and sleep
Am D Ebm Em C

If I can find my way home, will you take hold of me
CHORUS:
G
I've been going so long
D
I can barely say
Em C
All I know is now I want to stay
G
Has it been too long
D
Since I went away
Em
Cause I'm trying to find the words
C
But I can barely say
VERSE 2:
(Same chords as verse 1)
Well I use to be the sun
Waiting silently but they barely noticed me
But I've been talking in my sleep
When anybody sees
They turn and run from me
PRE-CHORUS
CHORUS

Am D
I wanted to run
Em Am
I wanted to love and be loved in return
D
But will I ever get back
Ebm Em C
Do I know too much too return
