Verse 1: 

                Cm 
I don't want to talk 
                      Ab  
Cos it will only hurt more 
                Cm 
I don't want to bring it up again  
                 F    Ab 
Cos it hurt like hell before 

Verse 2; 

                Cm 
You know me too well 
            Eb                 Ab 
You make my head spin and I'll just say something wrong 
                      Cm 
You pull me out of my shell 
         Bb                    Ab 
And then hate me when I'm done 

Pre-chorus 

           Bb               
But if the rain keeps falling 
                                  Ab 
And you can't see the tears in my eyes 
             Bb 
They say the night is daunting 
                             Ab Eb Fm 
But we all need somewhere to hiiiiide 



               Cm          Eb         Ab 
So it could be better if I kept it to myself 
            Cm          Eb              Ab 
It could be better if I left it on the shelf 
Bb                                    Ab 
Before I go and say something I don't mean

It could be better if I kept it to myself 


Verse 3:
 

                Cm 
Let's wipe the slate clean 
                       Ab 
And I'll bottle it up again 
                              Cm 
It's just how I've always been 
         Ab 
Even without you 

Pre-chorus:
 

           Bb 
Cos if the rain stops falling 
                                     Ab 
And you start to see the tears in my eyes 
           Bb 
And if the night stops calling 
                               Ab Gm Fm 
And we won't have somewhere to hiiiiide

It could be better if I left it on the shelf 
Bb                                    Ab 
Before I go and say something I don't mean 
            Cm          Eb              Ab 
It could be better if I kept it to myself
