Intro:
G+G A augmentedA D/F#D/F# G+G x2


Verse 1:
G+G       A augmentedA
Read a book on Hemingway
D/F#D/F#       G+G
Closed my eyes to see
G+G         A augmentedA
The man himself appeared to say
D/F#D/F#         G+G
To write is just to bleed

Pre-Chorus:
G+G          A augmentedA          D/F#D/F#
So I will write it down, all the jagged edges
          G+G
The ugliness I've seen
G+G          A augmentedA          D/F#D/F#
Until I change the truth, rearrange the letters
        E minorEm    D MajorD
For beauty underneath, mmm


Chorus:
   D MajorD        G minorGm
Dear Hope, if you can hear me, don't go
                     D MajorD
I don't feel you now, but I know you're there
   D MajorD          G minorGm
Dear Hope, I could really use you now
G+G
Throw me a rope
G minorGm
Throw me a rope
D MajorD     A* D MajorD A* D MajorD
Dear Hope


Verse 2:
G+G         A augmentedA          D/F#D/F#
I can't seem to shake it yet, feeling that
          G+G
Things may never change
G+G           A augmentedA        D/F#D/F#
It always breaks my heart when broken parts
        G+G
Ache to heal again

Pre-Chorus:
G+G          A augmentedA          D/F#D/F#
So I will write it down and make jagged edges
           G+G
Into something I can hold
G+G          A augmentedA
Don't wanna lose my way
       D/F#D/F#
Like dear Hemingway
        E minorEm  D MajorD
So I won't let go, ohh


Chorus:
   D MajorD        G minorGm
Dear Hope, if you can hear me, don't go
                     D MajorD
I don't feel you now, but I know you're there
   D MajorD          G minorGm
Dear Hope, I could really use you now
G+G
Throw me a rope
G minorGm
Throw me a rope
G+G
Throw me a rope
G minorGm
Throw me a rope
D MajorD    A* D MajorD A* D MajorD
Dear Hope
