Verse 1:
            D MajorD
I miss that week in the hospital
            B minorBm
Too sick to see you but made sure to call
             G+G          A augmentedA
It spiraled downward from then when I got sick again
           D MajorD
I'm overwhelmed by it all
      G+G
If I could open up enough
  A augmentedA
To feel your love
      G+G
Maybe it'd be more bearable
     A augmentedA
'Til the treatments end

Chorus:
       D MajorD
But don't pretend that the world has
F# minorF#m        B minorBm
Never been good to you
   D MajorD
Don't suspend all your plans
     F minorFm           G+G
When you know you should follow through

          D MajorD
I never pushed the limits
            B minorBm
I lived inside them and minded
          G+G
Didn't dare ask questions
            A augmentedA
Never swam in the deep end
        D MajorD
I was afraid to try
           G+G
Now I feel like a bad kid
       A augmentedA
'Cause no one deserves this
       G+G
So I'll just sit here quietly
    A augmentedA
With my hands folded

       D MajorD
But don't pretend that the world has
F# minorF#m        B minorBm
Never been good to you
   D MajorD
Don't suspend all your plans
     F# minorF#m          G+G
When you know you should follow through
D MajorD
Don't you dare play the victim
   F# minorF#m          B minorBm
When you have the power to choose
     D MajorD            F# minorF#m        G+G
Don't pretend that the world has never been good to you

I won't pretend anymore

Over you
