VERSE

Em         G
head under water
         Bm
and they tell me
           D
to breathe easy for a while
Em                 G
but breathing gets harder
     Bm      D
even I know that

Em                G
you made room for me
                    Bm
but it's to soon to see
       D
if I'm happy in your hands
Em            G           Bm     D
I'm unusually hard to hold on to

PRECHORUS

Em           D
blank stares at blank pages
G        A
no easy way to say this
Em             D                  G
you mean well, but you make this hard on me

CHORUS

                          Em
I'm not gonna write you a love song
           A
'cause you asked for it
           D
'cause you need one
     G                             Em
you see I'm not gonna write you a love song
            A
'cause you tell me it's
            D
make or breaking this
            G
if you're on your way
                   Em        D
I'm not gonna write you to stay
     Bm                              E
if all you have is leavin' I'm gonna need a better reason
   G          A
to write you a love song today

Em G Bm D

VERSE

Em            G
i learned the hard way
          Bm
that they all say
D
things you wanna hear
Em           G
and my heavy heart
        Bm      D      Em
sings deep down under you
              G
and your twisted words
               Bm
your help just hurts
       Em                       G
you were not what i thought you were
