Tom: Dm
F C
Okay, I'm finished now
Cm Bb
And I kept my faith for long enough
Bbm F
And I hope I'm old and fairly sober
C7 Bbmaj7
If I'm let down
F C
Maybe you keep me around
Cm Bb Bbm
For the constant affirmations
F
While I scrounge for understanding
C7 Bbmaj7
And fall out
Bb
I'll let you win and I'll let you tie
F C
The ribbon to my hair
Bb
Just so that we could come back to this
F C
If we really cared
Bb
The morning gates stay open
F C
If you had a thought that I'd be there
Bbmaj7
Oh, I'd be there
F C Cm Bb
Ooh, ooh
Bbm F C Bb
Ooh
F C
Know we could use a break
Cm Bb Bbm
Because I can't feel my feet
F
Carried you all the way upstairs
C Bbmaj7 A
So you can sleep and I can think
D F#m G
Stand guard when I am near
D F#m G
Clinging on to everything you fear
D F#7 Gm
Keeping mе close while you hold me out and say
A A7
"I don't lovе you that way"
D F#m G
Harbor myself away from everyone else
D F#m
I'm half-awake and intimate
G
Eyes closed and I'll commit
D F#7
What I wish I had with you
Gm
I'll pretend until it's true
A A7 A
I don't love you that way
D F#m G
Swallow the pill, it's only fair that I hear
D F#m G
Know myself better than I have in years
D F#7 Gm
I don't know why I have to defend what I feel
A
I try
D F#m G
Stand your guard when I am near
D F#m G
Loathe me until you're reminded of the deal
D F#7 Gm
One of us knows when you hold me out and say
A6 A D
You don't love me that way
F#m G
D F#m G
D F#7 C#dim7 Gm
