[Verse 1]

Bm          G                                  A                   Em
    I don't know if you're listening or if you wanted to hear from me
Bm                          G                D                 A
   I don't feel like you're supposed to when somebody sets you free
Bm                 G                   A             Em
   I'm not good at pretending that I'm happy to be a lone
Bm                 G               D               A
   Part of me is a question, can't answer it on my own
           G                                               Asus4
  'Cause I lost part of me when I lost all of you, now I'm lost


[Chorus]
                   Bm             G
I don't wanna come crawling, craw-ling
                   A            Em
But I catch myself falling, fal-ling
                    Bm           G                        D   A
I could try to stop calling, cal-ling just to show myself
                Bm            G
Did you keep my sweater, swea-ter
                    A        Em
Did you read my let-ter, let-ter?
               Bm          G                      D   A
Do you know me better, bet-ter than I know myself?
               Em             A G                    Bm   G     A  Em
Do you know me better, better         than I know my-self?


[Verse 2]
Bm                        G
  I don't feel like we're done here
          A                    Em
You got a lock on the things I want
Bm                    G              D                   A
   I'm a lost, lonely one here who's addicted to holding on
Bm                      G                A                 Em
    I don't have you to kiss now and I'm putting myself to sleep
Bm                     G                   D                A
    But it's me that I miss now, there's a me that I didn't keep


[Chorus]
                   Bm             G
I don't wanna come crawling, craw-ling
                   A            Em
But I catch myself falling, fal-ling
                    Bm           G                          D   A
I could try to stop calling, cal-ling just to show myself ( ahh ahh )
                Bm            G
Did you keep my sweater, swea-ter
                A           Em
Did you read my letter, let-ter?
               Bm          G                  D    A
Do you know me better, bet-ter than I know my-self?

               Em              A Gmaj7                   Bm          Gmaj7      A      Em
Do you know me better, better             than I know my-self?    oh oh-oh   oh-oh  oh-oh

               Bm        Gmaj7        D       A
Than I know my-self?  oh oh-oh     oh-oh   oh-oh-oh-oh


[Bridge]
         Gmaj7                                           Asus4
'Cause I lost part of me when I lost all of you, now I'm lost


[Chorus]

                   Bm             G
I don't wanna come crawling, craw-ling
                   A            Em
But I catch myself falling, fal-ling
                    Bm           G                    N.C.
I could try to stop calling, cal-ling just to show myself
                Bm            G
Did you keep my sweater, swea-ter
                A           Em
Did you read my letter, let-ter?
               Bm          G
Do you know me better, bet-ter
               D6          A                    Bm    G      A      Em
Do you know me better, bet-ter   than I know my se-e-e-e-e-e-elf?
                                                ahh   ahh    ahh    ahh
               Bm     G     D     A
Than I know my se-e-e-e-e-e-elf?
               ahh    ahh   ahh   ahh


Bm                G               A                      Em
    I don't wanna wait any longer     for the feeling of getting stronger
Bm                     G                D    A
    Maybe that's why I wrote a song for you
                   Em              Gmaj7
'Cause you know me better, better           than I know myself
