INTRO
G+G F# minorF#m E minorEm A augmentedA (B minorBm)
G+G F# minorF#m E minorEm A augmentedA (B minorBm)

VERSE 1
 G+G                 F# minorF#m
I hear you've got your troubles, or so I've been told
E minorEm             A augmentedA     B minorBm
Maybe just a couple but I'm not quite sold
  G+G                   F# minorF#m
I'm indifferent to the difference between tomorrow and today
E minorEm              A augmentedA          B minorBm
Less an indiscretion than a lesson I've been paid and and (and)
  G+G           F# minorF#m
The stages of recovery can signify your age
   E minorEm       A augmentedA
Like rings around a stump
           B minorBm    G+G
Oh, that's something I know a little bit about, child
F# minorF#m                   E minorEm
Lately, it's been getting a little bit crazy
           A augmentedA       B minorBm
I don't wanna be complaining, complaining, oh

PRE-CHORUS

G+G ~      A augmentedA ~
All my friends go to bed
A augmentedA ~               B minorBm ~
Dreaming up a reason they should weep, weep
  G+G ~      A augmentedA ~          A augmentedA ~
And all my friends go to the ends of the earth,
               B minorBm (stop)
for secrets they don't wanna keep.


CHORUS

         B minorBm
And this is my confession, yes, yes
       A augmentedA
This is me confessing: God bless
       G+G
The sad and selfish

Stay helpless
      A augmentedA       B minorBm
Cause I've always been stronger than that
            A augmentedA
Hold the weight of the world on my back
      G+G
It's just love, selfish love
          A augmentedA
Love, selfish love

HOOK(?)

G+G           F# minorF#m
I've got nothing to confess, yes
E minorEm           A augmentedA   B minorBm
I've got nothing to confess, yes
G+G           F# minorF#m
I've got nothing to confess, yes
E minorEm           A augmentedA   Bm*
I've got nothing to confess, yes

VERSE 2

G+G
It's too easy to be scared sometimes
F# minorF#m          E minorEm
I'm not gonna lie like I don't understand
            G+G            F# minorF#m
But it's like the whole world is jumping off the bridge
               E minorEm         A augmentedA B minorBm
And you don't want to be the one standing on dry land

PRE-CHORUS

G+G       A augmentedA           A augmentedA                  B minorBm (stop)
All my friends go to the ends of the earth for secrets they don't wanna keep


CHORUS
          B minorBm
And this is my confession, yes, yes
        A augmentedA
This is me confessing: God bless
       G+G
The sad and selfish;
        A augmentedA
Stay helpless
             B minorBm
'Coz I've always been stronger than that
            A augmentedA
Hold the weight of the world on my back
      G+G
It's just love, selfish love
          A augmentedA
Love, selfish love
