[Intro]
E A C#m A
E A C#m A
[Verse 1]
E A C#m
Read it in a book once, don't remember where
A E
If you're happy in a dream, it has to count for somethin'
A C#m
Cursin' at the sun, you taught me not to swear
A E
You ask if I get worse and I say, "Dammit, you can bet"
[Refrain]
F#m C#m
Hangin' on a ledge outside of your house
A E
Tryin' not to freak out, starin' at the ground
F#m C#m
Doing math in my head, how far is it down?
A C#m
Not too good to beg for you to try to talk me down
[Verse 2]
A
You say you never had a good night's sleep
E
Any of the nights you spent with me
B C#m
I ask if it'd be better when I leave and then regret it
A
Maybe if I were a little patient
E
But I never learned the virtue in waitin'
B
It's too late anyway, to take it back
[Bridge]
A
'Cause I have a lot to say
E B
And never in the right way
A E B
And if I could just explain myself again
A
Oh, if I could fix you first
E B
Tell me about what hurts
A E B
And try not to make it worse than it already is
C#m
'Cause I have a lot to say
A
But never in the right way
E B
And if I could just explain myself again
[Outro]
E A C#m A
E A C#m A
