ALBUM: Scream

Writers: Helen Darling/Jenai

Capo 1st Fret / Key of F#

[Intro]

F C Dm Bb F C Dm Bb

Oh, whoa

[Verse]

F C Dm Bb F

So tired of walkin' 'round draggin' this ghost

C Dm Bb F

Can't escape the constant ache that wears on my woes

C Dm Bb Gm

It's too strong to rub it out, it's stuck like a stain

Dm Bb C F

A permanent reminder driving me insane

C Dm Bb F

I still see finality in that look on my face

C Dm Bb F

Still hide this bitterness I can almost taste

C Dm Bb Gm

All the things I should've said still echo inside

Dm Bb C

Can't listen any longer, it won't change good-bye

[Chorus]

F C Dm Bb

I scream your name

F C Dm Bb

To the rain fallin' down on me

F C Dm

And I break the silence inside me

Bb F C Dm

Since you left me with nothing to say

Bb F C Dm Bb
