Chords in this song · guitar

G Am C G Am

You left gleamin’

A green rectangle around the door

C G

Please be careful

G Am

What you wish for

I whisper to myself

Then I’m spinning it half around

C G

Like an echo

G Am

A far away sound

G Am

Saying be good to me

G Am

Be good to me

G Am C G Am

Marigold in the garden

My heart is out in the garbage

C G

I am being

G Am

An alarmist

Cause for as far as I see

It’s terrible territory

C G

And there’s no one

To reassure me

G Am

So it would be good to talk

G Am

For my sanity

G Am

Now do what you feel like you gotta do

G Am

But be good to me

C D

When you walk away

Em Am

You still exist and I feel good knowing it

C D

If it hurts me

Em Am

Why'd I rely so much on it in the first place?

C D

If it's happening

Em Am

Then why's this feeling taking over me?

C D

Could I believe

Em Am

In the me before I knew you beautifully? (x4)
