Am7 Am7sus4   Cmaj7 Cadd9   G   D Dsus4



       Am7          Am7sus4      Cmaj7         Cadd9
I'm so tired of the rain falling softly on the ground,

     G                                 D               Dsus4  D
just enough to get my feet wet but not enough to let me drown.

          Am7          Am7sus4     Cmaj7       Cadd9
I've been laying in my bed wishing I had never woken,

        G                           D               Dsus4  D
begging God to rid my head of every word you've ever spoken.

         Am7             Am7sus4        Cmaj7             Cadd9
Broke my knuckles on the wall because I thought about the call

          G
where you said you'd always love me,

           D                Dsus4  D
do you not tell the truth at all?

          Am7             Am7sus4        Cmaj7            Cadd9
Well if I ever cross your mind make sure you write down the times,

   G                             D          Dsus4
so I will know the moments I was eating you alive.



      Cadd9*                    Em7               G
Now I lay here waiting with the hope that I might find some sleep.

  D         Dsus4
I need some sleep tonight.

Cadd9*                            Em7                           G
 'Cause I've been waiting on your call but I know it will never come but

          D       Dsus4    Cadd9*
I'm still waiting by the phone.

              Em7                   G
And don't you dare, don't you dare, say you ever loved me

        D                Dsus4
or even tell me that you cared

          Em7                              Cadd9*
cause you knew what you were doing and you know just what you've done.

    G                                  D                 Dsus4
How dare you say you miss me with your spit still on his tongue?

     Em7                      Cadd9*
I am broken, I am beaten, I'm mistreated and I'm torn,

     G                              D                Dsus4
I am cold with no direction but I'm lost without your warmth.

           Em7                                 Cadd9*
I'm trying hard to find some hope that I might get the chance to breathe.

    G                                           D             Dsus4
Get off my mind, give back my heart and get the fuck away from me!

         Em7                           Cadd9*
I know I couldn't give you much, but I know I gave my best,

         G                                D               Dsus4
you were always my princess, and now he's sliding up your dress.

      Em7                        Cadd9*
And I know I gave the world everything I've ever had,

       G                                  D                    Dsus4
Johnny Cash said love would burn, I never thought it hurt this bad.



       Am7          Am7sus4      Cmaj7         Cadd9
I'm so tired of the rain falling softly on the ground,

     G                                 D               Dsus4  D
just enough to get my feet wet but not enough to let me drown.

          Am7          Am7sus4     Cmaj7       Cadd9
I've been laying in my bed wishing I had never woken,

        G                           D               Dsus4  D
begging God to rid my head of every word you've ever spoken.

         Am7             Am7sus4        Cmaj7             Cadd9

          G
where you said you'd always love me,

           D                Dsus4  D
do you not tell the truth at all?

          Am7             Am7sus4        Cmaj7            Cadd9
Well if I ever cross your mind make sure you write down the times,

   G                             D          Dsus4

(Strum once per chord)

            Em7
You are the itch that's on my back,

            Cadd9
you are the gum under my shoe,

            G
you are the horrors of my past,

            D
you are the chill that haunts the room,

         Em7
you are creaking on my steps,

        Cadd9
you are cancer, you are plague,

        G
you are regret, you are disease,

            D                  Dsus4      Am7
