 C          G/B      Am            G 
I told you I   would be there for you;  
  C        G/B            Am    G 
a promise I   intend to keep.  
        C              G/B                         G   
But the subject matter hits a little too close to home.  
        Am                 G      Fsus2   G-Fsus2-G 
and now I can't take back what I gave.  
               C               G/B                    Am           G 
With all the times we've seen,       the states that we've been in, 
             C                 G/B          Am          G 
you always saved me from my troubled self, it seemed,  
               C                G/B    
but now I'm hearing all these words you say,  
  Am                G               Am               G             Fsus2 
and I'm not sure if I can stay and listen to you melting all my dreams.  


           Csus2  C               G/B          Am    G 
Baby it's you      that kept my feet on the ground 
                 Csus2  C           G/B      Am              G 
thought that I could    choose if I always wanted you around 
         Csus2    C             G/B     Am G 
darling I     do  think we need time apart,  
       Am              G            Fsus2 
I still need time to mend my broken seams.   


  C          G/B        Am           G 
I  told you I    would listen to you,  
      C   G/B         Am 
so I'm   all ears.  
            C           G/B           Am              G 
But don't ask me to respond to your pleas for my advice,  
            Am           G       Fsus2 
'cause now I'm too burdened to speak.  


   Am                      G         F  
I think the time has come for me to go... oh, 
           Dm                      C             G 
I can't be by myself, but there is no-one else,  
             Dm                                    C       G 
and well it hurts to know someone else tastes your     lips,  
         Dm              C               F                      G 
but I cannot forget how hard I cried when I discovered you had lied,  
       Am                  G                F   
when you said I could never hurt like this.  

(Fsus2    Am   G   C) 

          C             G/B         Am                 G 
Cause I'm weary, I'm so weary,      I        told you I'd be there,  
       C            G/B            Am 
I'm broken, I'm so broken but I'm here.  
     C                  G/B     Am            G 
It's painful, it's so painful, I    told you I'd be -  
            Am                G       Fsus2                    
these are secrets I cannot afford to hear,  
                  Am                  G      Fsus2 
oh well these are secrets I cannot afford to hear, no no.
