Verse 1:

Em11Em11            F#F#
You've seen my attempts to leave
            A augmentedA                   Em11Em11          F#F#
And poor excuses for a personality, in a personality crisis, I swear I'm not always like this
           A augmentedA
Sometimes I just get selfish and win

And it's hard to pretend that I'm here
Em11Em11            F#F#
I heard you're leaving next week
                A augmentedA
Bet you'll be back home by the spring

I've heard a million different things
            Em11Em11  F#F#
Hey what's really going on?
            A augmentedA
Hey what's really going on?

Chorus:
        C#C#     BB      C#C#      BB      A augmentedA
Cause I've been hoping like hell we can find our way out of this mess

Verse 2:

Em11Em11            F#F#              A augmentedA
You've seen my attempts to speak on busted mornings like these
                            Em11Em11
And we both know that they keep happening far too often lately
       F#F#                A augmentedA
I'm rarely on time cause I have nowhere else to be
                          Em11Em11
It's like I'm stuck to this seat, seven days of the week
           F#F#              A augmentedA
I've never felt this strong, I've never felt this broken
                           Em11Em11
I never thought I would find, find what I was hoping to
F#F#             A augmentedA
And if you're choking I can stay

Chorus:

C#C#             BB
Cause I've been hoping like hell
C#C#         BB      A augmentedA
We can find our way out of this mess
C#C#          BB      C#C#      BB
Yeah I'm hoping like hell we can find our way out

Verse 3:

Em11Em11         F#F#
I've been a manic depressive
           A augmentedA
These days I'm always obsessing about how would I look in a mirror
Em11Em11
I haven't slept in a week
     F#F#
Too much thinking to get done
     A augmentedA
I haven't seen you all week

Well I've been stoned and you've been working
E MajorE
It's hard for me
F#F#
To watch you be
A augmentedA
So unhappy when you're around me
E MajorE
It's hard for me
F#F#
To watch you be
A augmentedA
So unhappy when you're around me

Chorus:

C#C#         BB      C#C#      BB      A augmentedA
And I'm hoping like hell we can find our way out of this mess
C#C#          BB      C#C#      A#mA#m
Yeah I'm hoping like hell we can find our way out
A augmentedA
Of this mess
A#mA#m   A augmentedA
Of this mess

Outro:

Em11Em11        F#F#       A augmentedA
It's hard for me to watch you be so unhappy when you're around me
Em11Em11        F#F#       A augmentedA

Em11Em11        F#F#       A augmentedA
It's hard for me to watch you be so unhappy when you're around me
Em11Em11        F#F#       A augmentedA
It's hard for me to watch us be unhappy
