I know I’ll change my mind
     F/E             Fmaj7/D Gm
I’ve caved a million times

But the power’s still all mine

Can’t keep it up at night

                Gm
I could’ve been more than this
                        Gm/C   Gdim/C
Putting innocent energy into it

But, please don’t lie

                       Gm/C
You make me search for sympathy

At least that’s what I say
  F/E                Fmaj7/D Gm
I know it ain’t that way

You’re sick, you can’t deny that’s true
        Gdim/C                  F

For 5 more minutes to hold you

I took your pictures off my wall,

But I can’t bare burn them all
            Dm/C               Bm7b5                Bm7b5
‘Cus I push things but I can’t bare to see you fall
