Because Of The Shame *Acoustic Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][A][G][A][D][A][G][A]
[Bm][D][A][G][A][D][A][G]
We used to [A]get

[Verse 1]
[D]high together,
instead of getting [G]high alone.
I can't remember [Bm]the last time I saw you.
I can't remem[G]ber the
last time we talked.
You [D]left home for a fresh start,
Working as a waitress
down [G]in Bradenton.
With my [Bm]name tattoo'd
[A]into you[G]r skin.
Because [A]of the

[Verse 2]
[D]shame I asso
[G]ciate with vulnerability
[A]I am num[Bm]bing myself completely.
Can [A]you [G]hear me right now?
[A]I watched your [D]mother bury you today,
with [G]tears in her eyes.
It [Bm]wasn't her words [A]that shook me,
it was the re[G]semblance you shared.

[Interlude 1]
[G][A][D][A][G][A][D][A][G]
[A]Don't it feel

[Verse 3]
[D]so detached and unreal?
Don't [G]it seem so far away?
Like [Bm]the past never happened,
or like [G]nothings ever changed.
With your [D]casket open in front of me,
Your eyes [G]closed and your lips silent.
With my [Bm]name tattoo'd
[A]into you[G]r skin.
Because [A]of the

[Verse 4]
[D]shame I asso
[G]ciate with vulnerability
[A]I am num[Bm]bing myself completely.
Can [A]you [G]hear me right now?
I [A]watched your [D]mother bury you today,
with [G]tears in her eyes.
It [Bm]wasn't her words that shook [A]me,
it was the re[G]semblance you shared.
[A][D][A][G]

[Verse 5]
[A]I d[D]idn[A]'t [G]lis[A]ten to the[D] preacher.
I couldn't look your [G]husband in the eyes.
I'm [Bm]not sure what I meant to you then,
So [G]I'm not sure what I owe you now.
But [D]if something I said hurt you
I swear it was [G]not my intention.
With your [Bm]name tat[A]too'd
into my [G]skin.

[Interlude 2]
[G][Bm][A][G]
Because [A]of the

[Verse 6]
[D]shame I
asso[G]ciate with vulnerability
I [A]am [Bm]numbing myself completely.
Can [A]you [G]hear me right now?
I [A]watched [D]your mother bury you today,
with [G]tears in her eyes.
It [Bm]wasn't her words that shook [A]me,
[G]it [Bm]was t[A]he resembl[G]ance you shared.
