I Exist I Exist I Exist

G6                       Cmaj7 
Baby please, it's the way you speak 
G6                    Cmaj7 
Forming words so easily 
          G6                    Cmaj7 
And I think of the way you think 
G6                             Cmaj7 
It keeps me from falling asleep 
          G6              Cmaj7 
In that grave I call a bed 
G6                             Cmaj7 
Until you called me up and said 

G6 
I haven't stopped crying 

My father's been drinking 
  Cmaj7 
I need a place to stay 
G6 
I don't want to be here 

He's saying the words that 
   Cmaj7 
He promised he would never say 

   G6                  Cmaj7 
That liquid he consumes 
G6                      Cmaj7 
Makes him speak the truth 
            G6                    Cmaj7 
And I said no, it's not that at all 
                    G6                      Cmaj7 
It's that bottle of lies for a troubled heart 
                     G6                    Cmaj7 
It's standing on the edge of a mountain top 
G6                         Cmaj7 
Screaming anything he wants 
      G6 
Like: Look at me,Look at me, Look at me, Look at me, Look at me 
                      Cmaj7 
Look at me, Look at me, Look at me 
        G6                                        Cmaj7 
Because I exist, I exist, I exist, I exist, I exist, I exist 

      G6                   Cmaj7 
I remember the way you shook 
          G6 
It's a shame that we're not soulmates 
             Cmaj7 
'Cause if I didn't know better 

I'd say this feels pretty good 
     G6                  Cmaj7 
And how could I be scared? 
        G6                          Cmaj7 
When I stretch and feel you're there 
                  G6 
So shut your mouth 
               Cmaj7 
'Cause these words will speak themselves 
          G6 
I can feel them in these blankets 
                Cmaj7 
And they're surrounding your figure 

Embraced in the quilts 
    G6                   Cmaj7 
And I can't help but think 
           G6                 Cmaj7 
You're my missing puzzle piece 

 G6  Cmaj7 

        G6 
I wake up in the hallway, I'm looking for sunlight 
      Cmaj7 
With rays that will cure me of the 

Pain that keeps my lungs tight 
G6 
Ignoring the voices and feelings that tell me 
    Cmaj7 
To get out of this house 
G6                   Cmaj7 
I can't make them stop 
 G6                 Cmaj7 
I'm just like my mom 

               G6                      Cmaj7 
And you said no, these demons will fall 
G6                         Cmaj7 
You're so precious to us all 
           G6                  Cmaj7 
And I said I can't do this alone 
G6                     Cmaj7 
I still need you to hold 
     G6 
So don't let go, don't let go, don't let go, don't let go 
                                      Cmaj7 
Don't let go, don't let go, don't let go 

             G6 
Because I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I'm afraid 
                                Cmaj7 
I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I'm afraid,  I'm afraid
