🎸 Intro: 

E F# x2



🎸 Verse 1:
E               F#m               E
Don't give up, darlin' don't give up on me
F#m        A
Even if I kick and scream
     B          C#m
I'm saying all that I can
    D                F#m
I need someone to understand

E                  F#m                  E
I can't explain
I can't express these sentiments
   F#m          A
I try but I implode instead
    B                  C#m
It hurts my heart, it hurts my head
      D                F#m
Don't even know where to begin

🎸 Chorus: 
E               B                F#            A
I wish I could say it all to you in Iambic Pentameter
E              B                F#                   A
I'd Improvise high notes like thelonious when he's jammin' it
E              F#
I'd let it all out
                B                       A
And there's no doubt you would help me understand
          B                   C#m
What the hell is inside this messed up head
      D               F#
And you'd always be here for me

🎸 Verse 2:
     E
But that's not it
F#m                 E
That's not what I meant at all
F#m                    A
No, you're not getting it at all
     B               C#m
You gotta try, keep coming back
        D         F#m
'Cause I'm a hard nut to crack

E                F#m            E
A jumbled mess tangled up in a Gordian Knot
F#m               A
All my mom could do was talk
     B               C#m
And wonder why she couldn't reach
     D                F#m
Her silent child, try as she might

🎸 Chorus: 
E               B                F#            A
I wish I could say it all to you in Iambic Pentameter
E              B                F#                   A
I'd Improvise high notes like thelonious when he's jammin' it
E              F#
I'd let it all out
                B                       A
And there's no doubt you would help me understand
          B                   C#m
What the hell is inside this messed up head
      D               F#
And you'd always be here for me

🎸 Bridge: 
E             C#m
You and me together
A       B       F#
Holding on for life
E             C#m
You and me together
A         B        F#
Trapped under the ice
E           C#m
You and me together
A             F#
You and me forever
E            C#m
You and me together

B        F#       G#m    F#m
Seasons come and seasons go
E            F#  B       
Where they stop no one knows
B            F#         G#m     F#m
'Round and 'round and 'round we go
E           F#         B             
Back to a place we've never been before
