Verse 
    G                          C 
So, I could just sit here, listening to the breeze 
           D                 C           G 
Say we're all gonna die that curable disease 
G                                 C   
So I'm ready to be taken wherever it takes me to 
        D                     C             G 
But I'd rather just sit here, waiting for you 

G                          C 
So look, see here, this is all that I am 
     D                     C        G 
Some amateur painting in a golden frame 
G                         C 
Forgive me, forgive me is all I have left 
D              C        G 
I guess I just needed a friend 


Chorus 
C                       Em 
Words that once sounded sweet to my ears 
C                   Em 
Hold me close, I am full of these fears 
C            Em 
Here where I stutter and shake 
D    C     G 
Only a mistake 


G                              C 
Now we can play dress-up, yes, I'll play the part 
     D                        C              G 
I'll stand up and laugh at my own frightened heart 
G                      C     
Ha-ha, ha-ha! Ain't it absurd how things can turn? 
     D                                  C             G 
It's these kinds of nights, I forget the lessons I've learned 

G                          C 
So look, see here, this is all that you are 
  D                       C                G 
I tried to find out how I broke down these walls 
G                        C 
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it had to be that way 
  D            C        G 
I guess I just needed a friend 


C                       Em 
Words that once sounded sweet to my ears 
C                   Em 
Hold me close, I am full of these fears 
C            Em 
Here where I stutter and shake 
D    C     G 
Only a mistake

C                       Em
