 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      Bb7M
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  Bb7M
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
           Bb7M
Oh, I'd be there

F                   C
Know we could use a break
        Cm              Bb   
Because I can't feel my feet
Bbm                 F
Carried you all the way upstairs
   C                 Bb7M        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   F#m  G
You don't love me that way
