Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E) Key: D Difficulty: Novice Verse 1: D A Bm I‘m weighing down the covers of my bed. D A G A7 I feel so heavy from the silence of what wasn't said. D A Bm G Though it's dark in here I see fluorescent lights above your head, D A G making me green cause they're looking over you instead.
Verse 2: D A Bm A D A G Oh how I wish I was a helpful one. A D A Bm A D A G A But I can't be the one who's hovering 'round always asking you what's wrong. D A Bm A D A G This distance grew up carelessly but how easily it keeps me A G A D G from needing to be there when you need me there. A G D I hope when you need me there I'll show up again Interlude: D A Bm A D A G Verse 3: A D A Bm A D A G And keep you warm and make the bed A D A Bm A G A and hold a washcloth to your perspirating forehead. D A Bm G But you think a lover, not a friend, will drive those secret demons in D A G though the silence is the place that they begin.

A D A Bm A D A G So if there's something wrong inside me I hope some other soul will find me A G A D G here in this aging set of skin, A G A D G 'cause these are the bodies we're stuck in. A G A D G And if I had it all to do again A G A D G I'd have driven over before they checked you in Outro: A G A D G x6:
