Intro: Bm D G A

Verse 1:
Bm                             D
  I'd barely seen you when you asked me if I hated you
E                                G
  Wasn't surprised but still had nothing I could say to you
Bm                    D                         G    A
  I'm sorry if I ever made you feel the way you do, mmm

Pre-chorus:
        Bm                               D
Yeah, I know I know you better than your parents
         G                              A
I heard about 'em, you don't gotta be embarrassed
         Bm                                      D
You go online 'cause that's where you can be the saddest
                   E       G
You've been acting careless

Chorus:
             Bm             D
Know you put on a happy face
             G                   A
You need someone who's gonna stay
              Bm                      D
I know you're crushed under the weight
                 E                  G
Wanna hold you up, wanna hold you up
                Bm               D
You keep things bottled up inside
             G                 A
I wish you'd give someone a try
          Bm                  D
You fell apart a million times
                 E                  G
Wanna hold you up, wanna hold you up
                      Bm  D  G  A
Before my heart gives out

Verse 2:
Bm                               D
  You're losing track of all the friends I know you used to have
G                                  A
  Don't know what happened but the old you wasn't half as bad
Bm                             D                    G     A
  I'm sorry no one sees what's going on inside your head

Pre-chorus:
        Bm                               D
Yeah, I know I know you better than your parents
         G                              A
I heard about 'em, you don't gotta be embarrassed
         Bm                                      D
You go online 'cause that's where you can be the saddest
                   E       G
You've been acting careless

Chorus:
             Bm             D
Know you put on a happy face
             G                   A
You need someone who's gonna stay
              Bm                      D
I know you're crushed under the weight
                 E                  G
Wanna hold you up, wanna hold you up
                Bm               D
You keep things bottled up inside
             G                 A
I wish you'd give someone a try
          Bm                  D
You fell apart a million times
                 E                  G
Wanna hold you up, wanna hold you up
                       Bm
Before my heart gives out

Bridge:
   D            G           A           Bm
I know that you hate when I figure you out
    D      E               G              Bm
You get so distant just so you can hear a sound
      D                G                 A             Bm
Swear that you've been gone but yet your body's still around
D                        E    G
  What are you doing now?

Chorus:
             Bm             D
Know you put on a happy face
             G                   A
You need someone who's gonna stay
              Bm                D
I know you're crushed under the weight
                 E                  G
Wanna hold you up, wanna hold you up
                Bm               D
You keep things bottled up inside
             G                A
I wish you'd give someone a try
          Bm                  D
You fell apart a million times
                 E                  G
Wanna hold you up, wanna hold you up
                       Bm  D  G  A
Before my heart gives out
