[Emaddb9 023000]
[Emmaj7 021000]
Capo: 3 fret
Alternate or different capo fret positions are easily possible by using the transpose
button below.
The chords will automatically adapt to the new capo position.
Plus 1 means capo fret position one down; minus one means capo one fret up.
Using the Transpose button can affect the placement of the chords in the line. Small
movements of the chords on the line are possible (depends on length chord names).
Example: To play this without capo set the transpose button at +3.
Half step down tuning set the transpose button at +4.

[Verse 1]
Am F C Em Am
Why must I feel numb, done what I've done,
F C Em Am
I've taken my cues, what I'm supposed to do,
F C Em Am
Now heave the issue, the narrative's doomed,
F C Em Am F C Em
When I hold the pen, it's throttling you.
[Interlude]
Am F C Em
[Verse 2]
Am F C
You never liked me when drunk,
Em Am F C
I start to believe you never liked me at all,
Em Am F C
And so I agree, and I'll say "Fuck you",
Em Am F C
'Cause I know if I don't, I'll probably say,
Em Am | F | C | Emaddb9 Emmaj7
Something stupid and true.
[Interlude]
Am | F | C | Emaddb9 Emmaj7
[Verse 3]
Am F
I stand just out of reach of your fists,
C Emaddb9 Emmaj7
And take myself away again, pretty slim,
Am F
And dance around the subject, a figure of eight,
C Emaddb9 Emmaj7
Describe all the parts of me I'm yet to break,
Am F
Count all the parts of me I'm yet to break,
Am* Em*
I Count all the parts of me I'm yet to break you.
[Verse 4]
Am F C
Kiss me like it was your job,
Em Am F C Em
So tender and carefully, teeth before tongue, (I wanna be yours),
Am F C Em
Not in the way that the romantics do,
Am F C Em
But with the grace of a workplace HR dispute. (I wanna be yours).
[Verse 5]
Am F C
You know, I don't need much more,
Em Am F C Em
But wanna be mine, wanna be yours,
Am F C
You know, I don't need much more,
Em Am F C Em
I wanna be mine, wanna be yours.

[Outro]
Am F C
I take you for granted,
Em Am F C*
Because the alternative's far more alarming.
