But I'm tryna be real with you
  Chord diagramA minorAm             Chord diagramG+G
And god, it's been a hell of a week
Chord diagramG+G         Chord diagramC majorC        Chord diagramG+G
And I just wanna relate to you in a true way
         Chord diagramG+G

Verse 2:
Chord diagramG+G            Chord diagramC majorC         Chord diagramG+G
I'll always struggle to think of you in a harsh way
         Chord diagramG+G
I know that it's weird
      Chord diagramA minorAm          Chord diagramG+G
But I still see you for the human beneath
Chord diagramG+G          Chord diagramC majorC           Chord diagramG+G
I wish that I was in love with your endless bullshit
            Chord diagramG+G
But I'm a 'heart-in-the-gutter' type
 Chord diagramA minorAm          Chord diagramG+G
Asleep on a stranger's knee

Verse 3:
Chord diagramG+G            Chord diagramC majorC          Chord diagramG+G
I'm getting used to the sleepless hours from sundown
       Chord diagramG+G          Chord diagramA minorAm
The terrible dreams that lead me inward
      Chord diagramG+G
To terrible truths
     Chord diagramG+G
But in my blood
   Chord diagramC majorC       Chord diagramG+G
Some electric holy yearning
      Chord diagramG+G      Chord diagramA minorAm       Chord diagramG+G
Carries an impulse to get shitfaced on you

Chorus:
Chord diagramG+G         Chord diagramC majorC
Tell me how I can do this thing
    Chord diagramG+G
Tell me how I can help this thing go easily
     Chord diagramA minorAm      Chord diagramG+G
'Coz I'm trying, honeybee

Chord diagramG+G         Chord diagramC majorC
Tell me how I can beat this thing
    Chord diagramG+G
Tell me how I can make this beast die easily
  Chord diagramA minorAm      Chord diagramG+G
Goddamn it, honeybee

Chord diagramG+G           Chord diagramC majorC           Chord diagramG+G
And get a load of the kid in the Gang Green t-shirt
       Chord diagramG+G
They were the gateway band
 Chord diagramA minorAm            Chord diagramG+G
Chord diagramA augmentedA pastor and the teacher to me
Chord diagramG+G         Chord diagramC majorC              Chord diagramG+G
I used to wanna be real with the things they believed in
           Chord diagramG+G
But since we've been talking
    Chord diagramA minorAm        Chord diagramG+G
I'm not sure if I believe anything

Verse 5:
Chord diagramG+G         Chord diagramC majorC            Chord diagramG+G
Take a look at the girl with the long range rifle
         Chord diagramG+G
The one with the crew cut
   Chord diagramA minorAm            Chord diagramG+G
She reminds me of a version of you
Chord diagramG+G        Chord diagramC majorC          Chord diagramG+G
Laying low in a field some place in Mosul
    Chord diagramG+G       Chord diagramA minorAm          Chord diagramG+G
Wholly emulsified by fear and aversion to truth

Chorus:
Chord diagramG+G          Chord diagramC majorC
When did everything get this weird?
    Chord diagramG+G
How the fuck did it start?
Chord diagramG+G      Chord diagramC majorC
Did you ever believe in me?
    Chord diagramG+G
Was it always so hard?

Tell me how I can help this thing go easily
     Chord diagramA minorAm      Chord diagramG+G
'Coz I'm trying, honeybee

  Chord diagramC majorC       Chord diagramG+G
The wait is hardly normal
    Chord diagramG+G
So just be real
Chord diagramA minorAm         Chord diagramG+G
In any way you can be
       Chord diagramG+G
The heart is closed
  Chord diagramC majorC       Chord diagramG+G
But keep me in the open
