capo: 1st fret[verse]
i learned to let Amgo when i was younger
Gscared of growing old
i would swim Ffar into the ocean, and try to stay afloat
until my Amlungs would cough up water
and Gsand would coat my bones, and i hopeF, now
that someday i'll Amopen up the floodgates
and lGet the lyrics flow
someday i'll Funderstand the dry taste, when the words are trapped below
some days i Amwonder if my airway
is Gclogged with all the quotes, that i wroteF, now
[pre-chorus]
F i feel worthless
Gmaybe i should open the drawAmer, burn the pages
write poems with the Cash on the floor
F pour the ink, into the sink
G and watch it drain from the shoreAm
[chorus]
i don't want Amlove no more
G though it's the one thing i've been Fsearching for
Dm though it's the one thing that i Ammiss the most
G now i'm afraid to be aloneDm F
[verse]
i learnt to grow Amold when i was younger
Amscared of staying young
afraid of the Amthoughts that i had conjured
that Amsat atop my tongue
knowing i'd Fchange the worlds opinion
if they would Dmjust, listen up
but they won'tAm, now
[pre-chorus]
F i feel worthless
Gmaybe i should open the drawAmer, burn the pages
write poems with the Cash on the floor
F pour the ink, into the sink
G and watch it drain from the shoreAm
[chorus]
i don't want Amlove no more
G though it's the one thing i've been Fsearching for
Dm though it's the one thing that i Ammiss the most
G now i'm afraid to be aloneDm
i'm afraid Fto be alone
to Gbe alone
[bridge]
Am looking in the mirror like
G maybe i will find Emmyself toFnight, i ask for a better mind
Dm then tap into the sight Fthrough my third Ameye, i had never realized
G i thought i had a choEmsen my deDmsign
i thought i was broken all this Ftime G
[chorus]
i don't want Amlove no more
G though it's the one thing i've been Fsearching for
though it's the one thing that i Ammiss the most
G now i'm afraid to be aloneF
