Intro: G C G C Verse 1: G Like flowers at your mother's wedding C The brighter shade of blue G C I'm clutching to the way I felt about you G Before the bags under my eyes C From tossing in my bed at night G C Now I know I never really loved you Interlude: G C G C Verse 2: G C Your parents tied a knot just like the one that's in my chest G C The home they built is broken from the silence G You hold the past over your head C Drowning in your self-regret G C I'll never be enough for what you wanted Chorus: Em D C G I'll never know what's good for me Em D So go ahead, tear me down G 'Cause I am weaker than I seem Em D C G Yeah it's cool 'cause I can smile and pretend Am G G (let ring) That you're not wasting space in my head Verse 3: G C The record keeps on skipping all the songs you love the most G C You're everything I hate about the east coast G C You always said that I would be a warmth that you could hold G Am C You are only just a blanket that always left my feet cold Chorus: Em D C G I'll never know what's good for me Em D So go ahead, tear me down Bm Cm 'Cause I am weaker than I seem Em D C G Yeah it's cool 'cause I can smile and pretend Am G C That you're not wasting space in my head Bridge: Am G D Now I'm shaking, you're drying in the breeze Am G C I've been trying to wash the memories out of our sheets Interlude: G C x3 G D G C Chorus: Em D C G I'll never know what's good for me Em D So go ahead, tear me down G 'Cause I am weaker than I seem Em D C G Yeah it's cool 'cause I can smile and pretend Am G C That you're not wasting space in my head Am Em C You're not a waste of space to me Outro: G Like flowers at your father's wedding C The brightest shade of blue G D C I'm questioning the way I feel about you This arrangement is its contributor’s own interpretation, shared for private study, education and non-commercial use.
