Intro (x2): Am  C    F

Chorus:
Am     C     F
Oh woh oh oh oh  woh oh oh woh oh
Am        C     F
Oh woh oh oh oh oh
Am     C     F
Oh woh oh oh oh  woh oh oh woh oh
Am        C     F
Oh woh oh oh oh oh

Verse 1:
        Am            C              F
On some level I think I always understood
           Am                 C             F
That these hands of mine were clumsy not clever
      Am               C          F
And I tried to do the best that I could
             D                                 F
But try as I might I could not bring myself to hold you

Interlude (x2): Am  C    F

Verse 2:
       Am            C                F
It's a secret I keep tucked inside my chest
          Am                  C            F
With this heart of mine thats guilty not remorseful
         Am                C            F
There is love that doesn't have a place to rest
                  D                                    F
But it would have buried you if it had settled on your shoulder

Interlude: Am  C    F

Chorus:
Am     C     F
Oh woh oh oh oh  woh oh oh woh oh
Am        C     F
Oh woh oh oh oh oh

Verse 3:
        Am            C             F
On some level I think I always understood
       Am                C             F
That a ship could never really love an anchor
     Am           C            F
So I did the only thing that I could
                D                               F
And severed the rope to set you sailing from my harbor

Interlude (x2): Am  C    F

Verse 4:
          Am            C              F
There are times where I still wonder a-bout you
        Am             C               F
You are someone I have loved but never known
           Am            C         F
And you'll never see the reasons I had
               D                                         F
For keeping my claws away when they were close enough to hurt you

Verse 5:
     Am            C       F
I am selfish I am broken I am cruel
     Am                  C               F
I am all the things they might have said to you
       Am            C             F
Do you ever think of me and my two hands
             D
And wondered why
                        F
They never soothed your fevers
    D
And wondered why
                F
They never tied your shoes
    D
And wondered why
                    F
They never held you gently
    D
And wondered why
                   F              E
They never had the chance to lose you

Chorus:
Am  C    F
Am     C     F
Oh woh oh oh oh  woh oh oh woh oh
Am        C     F
Oh woh oh oh oh oh
Am     C     F
Oh woh oh oh oh  woh oh oh woh oh
Am        C     F
Oh woh oh oh oh oh
