♫ Intro:

G+G A minorAm C majorC D7D7 C#7C#7 D7D7



♫ Verse :
          G+G
I don’t owe you my heart
            A minorAm
And I don’t owe you my body
               D7D7
But you should know that I’m sorry
             G+G D7D7
For being careless with you

            G+G
Lord knows I owed you more
               A minorAm
That I’m pretty sure I ever could give anybody
                 D7D7
But I can’t pin down what normal people want from foreign objects
G+G   G7G7
Bottom shelf erotic products, like me

♫ Pre-Chorus:
  A minorAm                 D7D7
So I could hold your hand but keep you at arms’ length, oh
B minorBm                 E minorEm
Hang me from a branch too high to climb and shake
   A minorAm
Less rare than scarce, less diamond than rough
  D7D7
Unlikely to be more than the coal you failed to crush


♫ Chorus:
  G+G             C majorC
And I-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i swear
       G+G
I’m really trying
     A minorAm
Get it together
Will, know and do better
          D7D7
It just don’t come natural to me to think that you’d want me for me

G+G      G7G7     C majorC
I-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i swear
       G+G
I’m really trying
     A minorAm
Oh
I’m sorry
I promise
I’m doing my best
    D7D7
I just haven’t learned how to be human as you are yet

G+G A minorAm C majorC D7D7 C#7C#7 D7D7

♫ Verse :
              G+G
I still don’t know who you are
              A minorAm
I only know that I’m still lonely
               D7D7
That morbid sort where even company can’t cure me
                    G+G
And the more you reassure the less I trust

              G+G
But still you gave me your heart
          A minorAm
I only gave you my body
              D7D7
Honestly thought nobody’d want it
                           G+G       G7G7
Let alone notice it’s gone and so I left it home but now, now, now, now


♫ Pre-Chorus:
     A minorAm              D7D7
I keep a locket with a picture on the back of my head
   B minorBm                 E minorEm
Oh, monkey wrench my side view mirrors, ghost my friends
         A minorAm
I’ve lived more lives than enough
I haven’t died quite as much
     D7D7
But I’m not a real person just the shit you can’t make up, and


♫ Chorus:
G+G            C majorC
I-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i swear
       G+G
I’m really trying
        A minorAm
I’m just as exposed if I take off my clothes
           D7D7
When we make the closest thing to love that I’m capable of and

G+G       G7G7            C majorC
I-i-i-i-i-i-i don’t know why you would care
         G+G
But I’m really trying
     A minorAm
Oh
I’m sorry
I promise I’m doing my best
    D7D7
I just haven’t learned how to be human as you are yet


♫ Bridge:
G+G A minorAm C majorC D7D7 G+G A minorAm C majorC D7D7 D7D7 D7sus4D7sus4

D7D7  D7sus4D7sus4
Did I really

 A minorAm               D7D7
Have any of that gravity? Maybe you’re quicksand
      B minorBm                E minorEm
Because I really couldn’t tell how deep my footprints went
    A minorAm
The vertex of my redemption arc, the searching of that virgin heart
   D7D7
I’m catatonic in your arms, cryin’ “How did I cause so much harm ”

   A minorAm
I’m down pounding my head
     D7D7
Against the kitchen floor
   B minorBm             E minorEm
Apologizing for my life and ever entering yours
        A minorAm
Don’t say “I’m sorry, but this can’t go on”
I know you’ve got scars of your own
   D7D7
But hide my knives before you go
I’ll either live or die alone


♫ Chorus:
G+G            C majorC
I-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i swear
         G+G
That I will die trying
          A minorAm
I’m still in the process but I’m making progress
       D7D7
I promise I honestly wanna prove improve is possible

G+G      G7G7     C majorC
I-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i swear
        G+G
I’m so fucking sorry
        A minorAm
I’m not a good person
I’m barely a person at all
     D7D7                     G+G
But someday I’ll be perfect and I’ll make up for it all


(And write a fucking song about it ‘cause it has to be all about Will’s fucking drama,
god damn it! Sorry. Fuck
I’m sorry.)
