White Lies

Nothing To Give

White Lies


Tom: E

E 
You talked me to sleep last night
G#m                F#m
I hadn't felt that sad in years
E
Your eyes like glass mistakes
G#m            F#m
They moved me close to tears
G#m                      
You speak those favourite fables which I'm yet to live
F#m
And casually confirm my fears
C#m                          G#m
That I've got nothing to give

E                                 F#m     G#m
I wish I could say that I've got no regrets
E                                      F#m       G#m
But saying that would be one more to pile on my desk
E                                F#m       G#m
I wish I could say I've come to time like old
C#m                     G#m          F#m
But as you said goodbye, I almost died
C#m
I almost died

* use same format as before :)


I take it back, all of it
Those names I called myself
The heroes of my childhood
Like hardbacks on the shelf
I take it back those promises I made to everyone
I'm falling through a ribbon last
Before I'd learned to run

I wish I could say that I've got no regrets
But saying that would be one more to pile on my desk
I wish I could say I've come to time like old

But as you said goodbye, I almost died
I almost died
I almost died
