🎸 Verse 1:
   A minorAm    C majorC         FF
I'm a book on a shelf, collecting dust all by myself
   C majorC       G+G     FF
But I carry all the words you wrote
     A minorAm      C majorC    FF

       A minorAm      C majorC      FF
Just give me back, give me back to the ground

But the flowers in our window box don't grow
    A minorAm       C majorC       FF
Little buds make their graves as the warmth inside us fades

But I still don't know shit about letting go
