E                                       A2 
  My honeys heart is blue and a second offbeat 

E                                                 A2 
   Always tugging at me like hes running out of daylight 

E                   
  Yeah, my baby acts cool but they all know 
          A2 
Something aint right, aint right 
E                                  C#m7           A2 
  Only acting this cool when hes walking with me 
   E               A2 
1998 Forever and a day 
                    A2 
I keep the pictures hanging where the world can see em 
E             
I hope I die today 
                     A2                    A2 
Save me from another late night of red eyes 
E                          A2 
But then the morning comes 
         A2                           E 
You were there looking for me but I 
                       C#m7               A2 
I was gone, turned my back for a moment and 
               A2 
You had fallen apart 


E                               
   Theyve been promising the lights as we beg for our lives 
A2                           A2 
    Selling pages of the times weve been waiting on 
E                      
  Now the weights too much 
                            A2        
And I cant hold you anymore 
E                      
  How much of a cruel year can you call my fault? 
A2                      
   Not even the memories are immortal 
E                                C#m7 
  Terrified on this side of a conversation 
A2                     
    A conversation well never come back from 
E                                           A2 
  Ill never live it down if I never get around it 
                A2 
Cause goddammit, I did it to myself in hindsight 
E                       
  I liked him cause his rule was do whatever 
                    A2 
You like and I tried alright 

Now Ill wear these scars for life 
E                                   A2 
   I loved you when it hurt inside to 
           E 
But in the low light 
E                C#m7        A2 
You know Id do anything for you 


E                      A2 
  You know Id do anything for you 
E                                           A2 
  You know its true cause Ive said it to you 
E                          A2 
  Held in my arms, I swore Id be good to you 
E                                 C#m7            A2 
  Then sat and watched as you walked away from me 


E 
Yeah, youve changed 
               A2 
But did I ever know you? 

Or did I hold you 
                 C#m7 
Facing away from me 
                B4 
The air in your room never moves 
A2              B4           C#m7 
Live and die by TV no ones watching 
B4      A2 
  Do you hate me? 
B4               C#m7 B4 
When this is over 
                       A2 
Maybe then well get some sleep 
E                               A2 
Ive been picking names for our children 
                                       C#m7 
Youve been wondering how youre gonna feed them 
B4                               A2 
Love is not enough in this world 
    B4        C#m7     B4            A2    B4 
But I still believe in Nebraska dreaming 
                C#m7 B4 
Cause Id rather die 
                        A2 
Than be anything but your girl 

( E ) 


E 
I never meant to hurt you 
                      A2 
But somehow, I knew I would 
                                                            E 
Will it be like this forever? (forever?) forever? (forever?) 
E 
Id reach into your body 
                 A2 
And fix you if I could 
                                                            C#m7 
Will I feel like this forever? (forever?) forever (forever?) 
        B4 
Are you angry? 
       A2      B4 
Do you hate me? 
         C#m7         B4 
Darling, time may forgive me 
      A2 
But I wont 

( E ) 


E                  A2           E 
You know I'd do anything for you 
                                          A2     C#m7 
You know it's true, 'cause I've said it to you 
           B4              A2             B4 
Held in my arms, I swore I'd be good to you 
                              C#m7 
(Be good to you, be good to you...) 
             B4 
Then sat and watched 
                       A2 
As you walked away from me (from me...) 
     E                       A2 
So I bled til I cried, til I felt I might die 
      E 
To be known the way you should 
                           A2 
Is to put yourself through hell 
        C#m7        B4               A2 
Still I waited and tried, til it killed me 
             B4 
Cause youre right 
                C#m7 
I can wait if I want 
                   B4 
But itll never be good enough like I 
                  A2             E     A2 
Want to believe it is (it is, it is...)
