Intro: G Am C D7 Db7 D7

Verse:
                    G
I don’t owe you my heart
                        Am
And I don’t owe you my body
                              D7
But you should know that I’m sorry
                         G  D7
For being careless with you


                       G
Lord knows I owed you more
                             Am
That I’m pretty sure I ever could give anybody
                                  D7
But I can’t pin down what normal people want from foreign objects,
                               G     G7
Bottom shelf erotic products, like me

Pre-Chorus:
   Am                                  D7
So I could hold your hand but keep you at arms’ length, oh,
 Bm                                 Em
Hang me from a branch too high to climb and shake
      Am
Less rare than scarce, less diamond than rough
   D7
Unlikely to be more than the coal you failed to crush

Chorus:
    G                         C
And I-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i swear
             G
I’m really trying
          Am
Get it together, Will, know and do better
                    D7
It just don’t come natural to me to think that you’d want me for me


G           G7          C
I-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i swear
             G
I’m really trying
         Am
Oh, I’m sorry, I promise, I’m doing my best
        D7
I just haven’t learned how to be human as you are yet

Interlude: G Am C D7 Db7 D7

Verse:
                           G
I still don’t know who you are
                           Am
I only know that I’m still lonely
                             D7
That morbid sort where even company can’t cure me
                                       G
And the more you reassure the less I trust


                            G
But still you gave me your heart
                    Am
I only gave you my body
                           D7
Honestly thought nobody’d want it
                                                      G              G7
Let alone notice it’s gone and so I left it home but now, now, now, now

Pre-Chorus:
          Am                           D7
I keep a locket with a picture on the back of my head
     Bm                                  Em
Oh, monkey wrench my side view mirrors, ghost my friends
                 Am
I’ve lived more lives than enough, I haven’t died quite as much
         D7
But I’m not a real person just the xxxx you can’t make up, and

Chorus:
G                       C
I-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i swear
             G
I’m really trying
               Am
I’m just as exposed if I take off my clothes
                      D7
When we make the closest thing to love that I’m capable of and


G              G7                       C
I-i-i-i-i-i-i don’t know why you would care
                 G
But I’m really trying
         Am
Oh, I’m sorry, I promise I’m doing my best
        D7
I just haven’t learned how to be human as you are yet

Bridge: G  Am  C  D7  G  Am  C  D7  D7  D7sus4

D7    D7sus4
Did I really


 Am                             D7
Have any of that gravity? Maybe you’re quicksand
           Bm                               Em
Because I really couldn’t tell how deep my footprints went
        Am
The vertex of my redemption arc, the searching of that virgin heart
     D7
I’m catatonic in your arms, cryin’ “How did I cause so much harm?”


     Am
I’m down pounding my head
         D7
Against the kitchen floor
     Bm                          Em
Apologizing for my life and ever entering yours
               Am
Don’t say “I’m sorry, but this can’t go on”, I know you’ve got scars of your own
     D7
But hide my knives before you go, I’ll either live or die alone

Chorus:
G                       C
I-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i swear
                  G
That I will die trying
                   Am
I’m still in the process but I’m making progress
             D7
I promise I honestly wanna prove improve is possible


G           G7          C
I-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i swear
                G
I’m so xxxxing sorry
                Am
I’m not a good person, I’m barely a person at all
         D7                                         G
But someday I’ll be perfect and I’ll make up for it all

-And write a xxxxing song about it ‘cause it has to be all about Will’s xxxxing drama,

god damn it! Sorry. xxxx, I’m sorry.-

-1 with capo on 1st fret sounds awesome! but switch fsus4 with a normal F chord, sounds much better

camryn rei

i use the chords c, am, and f. i think it sounds better than the am7 and fsus2 🙂

Ava

Anyone have a strumming pattern???

booklover

Does anybody know the strumming pattern? I used one strum for each note but it sounded strange.

Myrte

turn transposer down -1 and use Am7, Fsus2 and C and plug 1st string, 3rd string, 2nd string and 4th string continuously throughout the song,
use Am, F and C if u strum D DD D DD *new chord* D DD D DD and so on for the verses > D UD D D D D *new chord* D UD D D D D for the chorus > the bridge is something you have to feel but i recommend using the same strumming patern as used for the verses

ho hoe

hi

cellist365

I changed the lines “You’re still the girl in the club, When i held your hair up cus you had to much”, to “You’re still the guy in the club, When you held my hair up cus i had to much” switching the gender, just an idea.
