[Intro]
Bm  A  D  G
[Verse 1]
BmCome back to me
I've faDllen yet again
And I'm sAcared and I'll pretend
To be beGtter than I am
So I nBmeed you here to tell me
That I'm lDying and I'm wrong
That I doAn't need to feel strong
That I kGnow this won't last long
But in the meBmantime have I eaten
Have I shoDwered yet today?
You don't neAed to fix the problem
But just proGmise me you'll stay
[Chorus]
GBut I don't want toD-oA  
Be a bGurden to you-DuA  
So if yGou don't want toD-oA  
YGou don't have toD-oA  
[Verse 2]
And I fBmeel guilty when I speak of
my own modDest brand of hurt
I've seen frAiends who've gone through worse
I still mGake it in to work
It's just rBmeally not my season
This stuff cDomes and then it goes
I just nAeed someone who knows
I just nGeed somebody close

And I hBmear you when you tell me
That you kDnow this isn't me
It's just haArder to believe
When I'm huGrting and I'm weak
But if I pBmush the world away
I hope that yDou're the one who's left
It's with yAou I feel my best
It's with yGou I find my rest
[Chorus]

[Intro]

Bm A D G

[Verse 1]

Come back to me

I've fallen yet again

And I'm scared and I'll pretend

To be better than I am

So I need you here to tell me

That I'm lying and I'm wrong

That I don't need to feel strong

That I know this won't last long

But in the meantime have I eaten

Have I showered yet today?

You don't need to fix the problem

But just promise me you'll stay

[Chorus]

G D A

But I don't want to-o

G D A

Be a burden to you-u

G D A

So if you don't want to-o

G D A

You don't have to-o

[Verse 2]

And I feel guilty when I speak of

my own modest brand of hurt

I've seen friends who've gone through worse

I still make it in to work

It's just really not my season

This stuff comes and then it goes

I just need someone who knows

I just need somebody close

[Chorus]

G D A

But I don't want to-o

G D A

Be a burden to you-u

G D A

So if you don't want to-o

G D A

You don't have to-o

[Bridge]

And I hear you when you tell me

That you know this isn't me

It's just harder to believe

When I'm hurting and I'm weak

But if I push the world away

I hope that you're the one who's left

It's with you I feel my best

It's with you I find my rest

[Chorus]

G D A

But I don't want to-o

G D A

Be a burden to you-u

G D A

So if you don't want to-o

G D A

You don't have to-o

[Outro]

Bm D A G

(Just some strumming.)
