(intro) Am C G
Am C
It would simply say everything
G
if you would take a pen
Am
and write my name on a friend
C G
who never cared to let me in.
Am C
Then take a fast ravine thats for
G
three years swimming straight upstream
Am C G
and the wiiind, the wind will drag me down in the end.
Am C
you live inside my wall and I
G Am
I reach back and hit harder than GOOOoood falls
C G
christ amen, amen, amen
Am C
you're such a line to break and I,
G Am
I'm so scared to make a fucking mistake in the end...
C G D G
but I just wanna be happy agaaaaain, agaaaaiiiinnn
Am C
until it all falls down
G
and where does that leave me?
Am C G
with things, things, I've got so many things to say.
Am C G
and with a broken heart and a straight face,
Am C G
I'm saying brother, "help meeeee"
Am C G
Brother, would you heeeeelp meeeee?
Am C
It's just a natural phase, that I,
G Am
I go through and then it's taken away and then bam!
C G
bam! IIIIIII'm fixed (I'm fixed, I'm fixed, I'm fixed)
Am C
but I, but I'm in another place to be, where I
G Am
I can't sleep without the thought of me being so,
C G (pause)
so daaaaaamn sick... But I'm sick, I'm sick, I'm sick
D G
so take this soooooong, take this song awAAaay
Am C
until it all faaaalls down,
G
and where does that leave me?
Am C G
with things, things, I've got so many things to say.
Am C G
and with a brokeeeen heart and a straight face,
Am C
and then all he said "reach for the girl, reach for the girl
G
and hold her close,
Am C
believe you can shine when you're silver
G
and I promise you gold, I promise you gold
Am C
and whenever you're dark iiiiinside,
G
dooooooooon't leeeet go
Am
remember there's rain
C G
and there's candy, and christmasy winter snow, snow, snow
Am
and remember, I love you the same
C
and I'll strangle your pain"
G
and he tells me to sing, so I sing, and I sing
Am C (pause)
for my brother who keeps me sane,
G
and tells me "everything will be O.K."
