CAPO 7
[Intro]
Cadd9 G
Cadd9 G
[Verse]
Cadd9 G
I'm not really sure if my words make sense to you
But I can't really find
Cadd9 G
Any other way to form these feelings into cubes
And sort them in my mind
Cadd9 G
The negative thoughts go on the left
And the happy things on the right
Cadd9 G
And there's a little corner saved just for you
Em Cadd9
Please let me know if you change your mind
Cause inside I'm falling
G D
And I need you to pull me out of this decline
Em Cadd9
I realise how hard on you this must seem
But trust me
G D
When I say its far, far worse for me
[Chorus]
G Cadd9
Please, please be here for me dear
Cause I've never needed a friend more
Em Cadd9
And I cant stress enough how much it means to me that you're trying
G Cadd9
And I don't mind if you can't hold me like you used to
Em
Cause I've never hated myself more
Cadd9
But this is just a bump in the road and I promise I'm trying
[Piano)
G Cadd9
G Cadd9
[Verse II]
Cadd9 G
Give me a moment to get my cards in line
Cause I'm still trying to figure out
Cadd9 G
In what kind of order I should set them out
Cadd9 G
If there was a way to explain everything without a word
Cadd9 G
I'd have a full house right now without a doubt
Em Cadd9
I'm trying to tear the wool from your eyes
G
But a part of me wants to let you be
D
Cause then you wouldn't see what I've become
Em Cadd9
I'm trying to shout but no sound comes out
It's like we're in a dream state
G D
But I should've woken up, woken up by now
[Chorus]
G Cadd9
Please, please be here for me dear
Cause I've never needed a friend more
Em Cadd9
And I cant stress enough how much it means to me that you're trying
G Cadd9
And I don't mind if you can't hold me like you used to
Em
Cause I've never hated myself more
Cadd9
But this is just a bump in the road and I promise I'm trying
[Outro]
G Cadd9
