D                   F#m                              D
I guess I thought I knew you, but you don't know yourself
                                            Em
My heart was on the table, yours was on the shelf
                  A                              Em
You promised me a castle, but all you built were walls
                     A                       G
I treated you like a king, but even kingdoms fall

♫ Chorus:
G                   A           G
I couldn't love you into loving me

Keeping me should have been easy, but
A                            G
Obviously, it just wasn't easy

I gave you water, but I couldn't make you drink
G

Always holding me at arm's length

D                   F#m                        D
I tried to pull you closer, but you untied the rope
              F#m                     Em
Any chance of closure just went up in smoke
D            A                     Em
You did me a favor, evеn though it hurt
                A                               G
I guess even my savior complеx couldn't make it work
