Verse:
F
You don't need to text back

You don't need to tell me why
Am                            G
You slipped out the side door alone last night
F
Found you in the backyard

You were out there awhile
Am                  G
nobody saw when you fake that smile

Pre-chorus:
F
And I know you say that you're okay
               Am                         G
But leaving by eight tells me that you're lying
F
And you got your pride

I got it, it's fine
           Am
I got the time
                       G
So if you change your mind

Chorus:
C
We can watch reruns in silence
         G
Skip the conversation

But I'm here if you need one
Am
Just because you act so well
G                       F
Doеsn't mean it's not heavy

Verse 2:
F
Even if you cancel

Or pick it up another time
Am                       G
I know it's exhausting to socialize
F
And you've been missing too much sleep

Blame it on the caffeine
Am                                G
I know that you're scared of what they might think

Pre-chorus:
F
And I know you say that you're okay
            Am
Just a bad day
                    G
But this week's had five now
F
And you got your pride

I got it, it's fine
           Am
I got the time
                       G
So if you change your mind

Chorus:
C
We can watch reruns in silence
         G
Skip the conversation

But I'm here if you need one
Am
Just because you act so well
G                       F
Doеsn't mean it's not heavy

F                 C
No, we can take a long drive down the coastline
                   G
Getcha out of your mind 'cause it works for you sometimes
Am                          G                          F
Just because you wear it so well doesn't mean it's not heavy

{Bridge - No Guitar}
(nc)
Laid it down, laid it down the line
(nc)
Anytime when you need someone
(nc)
Don't have to explain
(nc)
Say the time
(nc)
I'll be ready when you need someone

Chorus:
C
We can watch reruns in silence
         G
Skip the conversation

But I'm here if you need one
Am
Just because you act so well
G                       F
Doеsn't mean it's not heavy

F                 C
And we can take a long drive down the coastline
                   G
Getcha out of your mind 'cause it works for you sometimes
Am                          G                          F
Just because you wear it so well doesn't mean it's not heavy
