[Verse]~

G F

I never meant to make it such a mess



G C

I never thought that it would go this far



G C Cm

So I just stand here sorry



G A

Searching for something to say



C

Something to say



C D G C

Words fail,.. words fail



C D G

There's nothing I can say





[Instrumental]~

G C

[Verse]~

G C

I guess I thought I could be part of this



G C

I never had this kind of thing before



G C Cm

I never had that perfect girl



G A C

Who somehow could see the good part of me





[Verse]~

G C

I never had the dad who stuck it out



G C

No corny jokes or baseball gloves



G C Cm

No mom who just was there



G A D

'Cause mom was all that she had to be





[Pre-Chorus]~

Em C

That's not a worthy explanation



G D

I know there is none



Em Bm Am D Am

Nothing can make sense of all these things I've done





[Chorus]~

G C D G

Words fail,.. words fail



C F

There's nothing I can say



G C

Except sometimes,.. you see everything you wanted



F G C

And sometimes,.. you see everything you wish you had



F G Am G

And it's right there,.. right there,.. right there



C

In front of you



F C

And you want to believe it's true



F

So you!!! make it true



C F

And you think maybe everybody wants it



F

And needs it



C

a little bit



F

too

[Bridge]~

F A#

This was just a sad invention



F C

It wasn't real,.. I know



Dm

But we were happy



Am A#

I guess I couldn't let that go



F

I guess I couldn't give that up



Dm

I guess I wanted to believe



C

'Cause if I just believe



A# C Dm

Then I don't have to see what's really there





Dm

No,.. I'd rather pretend I'm something better than



A#

These broken parts



F

Pretend I'm something other than



C

This mess that I am



Dm

'Cause then I don't have to look at it



A#

And no one gets to look at it



F A# C

No,.. no one can really see





[Chorus]~

Am F G

'Cause I've learned to slam on the brake



C F G

Before I even turn the key



Am F G

Before I make the mistake



C F Am G

Before I lead with the worst of me



C F Am G

I never let them see the worst of me





[Outro]~

C F G

'Cause what if everyone saw..?



F C G

What if everyone knew..?



C F G

Would they like what they saw..?



F C F G

Or would they hate it too..?



Dm G C F

Will I just keep on running away from what's true..?



C Dm F

All I ever do is run



Dm F

So how do I step in



C Dm F C Dm F

Step into the sun..?



C Dm F C Dm F

Step into the sun



C Dm F

C Dm F
