Brace

Intro 
C G Em 
C G Em D G C 

 
C G Em              C     G 
       Trying to climb out 
Em     D   G    C 
 Your body is a shield 
C G  Em          C    G 
       Armored against me 
Em       D        C     G 
Find out what you really mean 
 

 
 C                 E         D 
I see you walking in your town 
           C 
With your head down 
           E           D 
You always wore that place 
         C    G   Em 
Like a brace 
                  C G Em 
Does it stop you 
D     G  C 
From breaking? 
 

 
Am              C           Em     D       C 
Annie, why are you still beating yourself up? 
             G 
It happens all the time 
Am               C        Em     D           C 
Annie, why have you gone closing all your doors 
           G 
Before I close mine?

C G Em                   C G 
      You left a light on 
Em    D    G        C 
  I saw a moth was dead 
C G Em                   C G 
      That summer morning 
Em      D             G       C 
   Find out where you really went 
 

 
    C            E     D 
I see you in the kitchen 
         C 
Making breakfast 
     E        D            C G Em 
Not saying a word as you stir 
                     C G Em 
I come up beside you 
      D      G        C 
Put a hand upon the burn 
 

 
Am               C        Em       D       C 
Annie, why are you still beating yourself up? 
           G 
It happens all the time 
Am               C         Em     D          C 
Annie, why have you gone closing all your doors? 
            G 
I haven't closed mine 
Am           C           Em       D        C 
Annie, I'm awake on the other side of the wall 
                        G 
But I can not hear your mind
