Verse 1:
G                    D      Em
Easy telling someone how to feel
       C                                      D
Not as fun to tell someone you love that it’s real
    G                         D    Em
The house your daddy built is underwater
       C                              D
No use trying not to be your mother’s daughter

Chorus:
C         D                    Em
Everybody knows that you’re my weakness
C              D          G D    Em D
You’re an open secret I’m afraid
C            D                    Em
Every time I walk by Times Square Jesus
   C              D              G D    Em D A7
He tells me to confess before my grave
C                     Em
 But I don’t wanna be saved

Verse 2:
      G                    D    Em
She’s everything that I’ve ever wanted
   C
To be because she’s yours
           D
And I’m no threat of course
  G                         D        Em
I still pick up your mother from the airport
           C
She says I should move on
                     D
You’re too much your Father’s son

Chorus:
C         D                    Em
Everybody knows that you’re my weakness
C              D          G D    Em D
You’re an open secret I’m afraid
C            D                    Em
Every time I walk by Times Square Jesus
   C              D              G D    Em D A7
He tells me to confess before my grave
C                     G     D    C
 But I don’t wanna be saved

Instrumental: G D    C

G    D    C  Em        Am  D
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh

Verse 3:
G                    D            Em
Books you never read fill up your shelf
C                                 D
Nothing that you’ve said has ever helped
G                 D        Em
Using me to talk about yourself
    C                                 D
You come off mean but I know you mean well

Chorus:
C         D                    Em
Everybody knows that you’re my weakness
C              D          G D    Em D
You’re an open secret I’m afraid
C            D                    Em
Every time I walk by Times Square Jesus
   C              D              G D    Em D A7
He tells me to confess before my grave
