Chords with lyrics

The repeated high note is a G#G#

Intro: C# minorC#m A augmentedA E-E2-E

[Verse 1]
C# minorC#m
I wrote you a letter
A augmentedA
Asked your best friend to send it
E MajorE       E2      E MajorE
But took to the sea before you could have read it
C# minorC#m      A augmentedA
Retreated to snowcapped waters of the unknown
E MajorE       E2      E MajorE
Extracted my heart while it was still beating
C# minorC#m
But glowing and red
A augmentedA
And I swear that sweat would
E MajorE       E2      E MajorE
Envelop your arms if you broke down and held it

[Chorus]
C# minorC#m  A augmentedA
I swear I'm a good man
E MajorE E2 E MajorE
I swear I'm a good man
C# minorC#m A augmentedA E MajorE E2 E MajorE
So why don't you love me back?

[Verse 2]
C# minorC#m         A augmentedA
Instead of twisting up words you just sat there in silence
E MajorE          E2        E MajorE
In wind burnt homes sighing rays from a sunset
C# minorC#m         A augmentedA
And all I could hear was the sound of the wasp nest
E MajorE          E2        E MajorE
My head made a home for the hum of the insects
C# minorC#m         A augmentedA
But my hands shake and shudder at the mention
E MajorE          E2        E MajorE
Of half written reasons why we'll only be friends

C# minorC#m        A augmentedA
I swear I'm a good man
E MajorE E2 E MajorE
I swear I'm a good man
C# minorC#m A augmentedA E MajorE E2 E MajorE
So why don't you love me back?
