Verse 1
F                                                            Bbsus2
 My honey's heart is blue and a second offbeat
F                                                                Bbsus2
 Always tugging at me like he's running out of daylight
F                                                                                           Bbsus2
 Yeah, my baby acts cool but they all know something ain't right, ain't right
F                                              Dm                 Bbsus2
 Only acting this cool when he's walking with me.
F                           Bbsus2
 1998 forever and a day
 F
I keep the pictures hanging where the world can see 'em.
I hope I die today
 Bbsus2
Save me from another late night of red eyes
 F                             Bbsus2
But then the morning comes
 F
You were there looking for me but I
 Dm                        Bbsus2
I was gone, turned my back for a moment and
You had fallen apart

Verse 2
F                                                                          Bbsus2
 They've been promising the lights as we beg for our lives
 F
Selling pages of the times we've been waiting on
 Bbsus2
Now the weight's too much and I can't hold you anymore
F                                                                  Bbsus2
 How much of a cruel year can you call my fault?
 F
Not even the memories are immortal
 Dm           Bbsus2
Terrified on this side of a conversation
 F
A conversation we'll never come back from
 Bbsus2
I'll never live it down if I never get around it
 F
'Cause goddammit, I did it to myself in hindsight
 Bbsus2
I liked him 'cause his rule was, "Do whatever you like," and I tried, alright
 F
Now I'll wear these scars for life
 Bbsus2
I loved you when it hurt inside to
 F
But in the low light
 Dm             Bbsus2
You know I'd Do anything for you


Chorus
F                               Bbsus2
 You know I'd Do anything for you
F                                                         Bbsus2
 You know it's true, 'cause I've said it to you
F                                     Bbsus2
 Held in my arms, I swore I'd be good to you
F                                            Dm                   Bbsus2F
 Then sat and watched as you walked away from me


Verse 3
Yeah, you've changed
 Bbsus2
But did I ever know you
Or did I hold you
 Dm
Facing away from me.
 C
The air in your room never moves
Bbsus2              C                    Dm   C
Live and die by TV no one's watching
 Bbsus2    C
Do you hate me?
 Dm  C
When this is over
 Bbsus2
Maybe then we'll get some sleep
F                                              Bbsus2
 I've been picking names for our children
 Dm
You've been wondering how you're gonna feed them
 C                                Bbsus2
Love is not enough in this world.
 C          Dm  C                 Bbsus2  C
But I still believe in Nebraska dreaming
 Dm C
Cause I'd rather die
 Bbsus2
Than be anything but your girl

Verse 4
F
 I never meant to hurt you
 Bbsus2
But somehow, I knew I would
Will it be like this forever?
F
 I'd reach into your body
 Bbsus2
And fix you if I could
 Dm
Will I feel like this forever .
 C
Are you angry?
 Bbsus2  C
Do you hate me?
 Dm               C
Darling, time may forgive me
 Bbsus2 F
But I won't


Chorus
 Bbsus2
You know I'd Do anything for you
F                                                         Bbsus2
 You know it's true, 'cause I've said it to you
Dm              C                 Bbsus2            C    Dm
 Held in my arms, I swore I'd be good to you
 C
Then sat and watched
 Bbsus2
As you walked away from me
 F                       Bbsus2
So I bled til I cried, til I felt I might die
 F
To be known the way you should
 Bbsus2
Is to put yourself through hell
 Dm                C            Bbsus2
Still I waited and tried, til it killed me
 C
Cause you're right
 D
I can wait if I want
 C
But it'll never be good enough like I
 Bbsus2
Want to believe it is
