Intro: C    F  C    F 

verse 1 
C                          F      C   F 
Think it’s finally breaking me down 
      C                                F         C       F 
To my credit, I feel like I held on as long as I could 
  C                F      C     F 
I barely recognize myself now 
    Am                       F                 C       F 
I’d teach my heart to lie if I thought that it would 


G                               F 
I don’t need the whole world to think I’m special 
G                            F 
I don’t need him to hang the stars in the sky 
G                      F 
Pay for all my sins or save me from drowning 
    Am       G     F          C       F  C    F 
But wouldn’t it be nice if he tried 



verse 2 
C                F       C      F 
It’s finally tearing me apart 
     C                              F           C      F 
An impossible mending you can’t see from the outside 
    C                  F              C     F 
And no one knows where all the pieces are 
        Am                F            C     F 
"Do you love me?" I say. “Sure” he replied 

 
G                               F 
I don’t need the whole world to think I’m special 
G                            F 
I don’t need him to hang the stars in the sky 
G                      F 
Pay for all my sins or save me from drowning 
    Am       G     F    
But wouldn’t it be nice 



Bridge 
Am       G     F    
Wouldn’t it be nice 
       C          F                C        F 
If his eyes would light up when he spoke my name 
        C      F                           Am         F    C    F  C    F 
If he’d run to catch me in his arms at the end of the day 

 
G                               F 
I don’t need the whole world to think I’m special 
G                            F 
I don’t need him to pull the stars from the sky 
        G                    F                       Am 
Just to string up my name in tiny sparkling lights 
G              F    
Wouldn’t it be nice 
Am       G     F        C        
Wouldn’t it be nice 
F     C        F  C    F
