Diamond and a Tether [Version] Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Pity, take [C]pity on [G]me.
Cause I'm [C]not half the man
that I [G]should be.
Always [C]turning to [G]run,
From the [C]people I should not be afraid [G]of.
[C]And darling,

[Verse 2]
[G]you[C] should know[G]
That I [C]have fantasies about being [G]alone.
It's like love is a lesson,
That [C]I can't [G]learn.
I make the [C]same mistakes
at each familiar [G]turn.

[Verse 3]
I know you can't [Em]hold
out [C]forever[G]
Waiting on a [Em]diamond and a teth[C]er[G][D]
From [Em]a boy who [C]won't swim
But who [B]will dip his toe [Em]in
Just [A]to keep you [C]here with [G]him.

[Verse 4]
I've got [G]this habit I abhor.
When we go [C]out I'm always
watching [G]the door.
Cause if there's someone
I'm gonna see
Who could [C]outdo the things

[Verse 5]
that you do to me.
[G]And I know you can't [Em]hold
out [C]forever[G]
Waiting on a [Em]diamond and a teth[C]er[G][D]
From a boy [Em]who won't f[C]ly
But who [B]will take to [Em]the skies if [A]he think
s you [C]are about to say goodbye.
[G]

[Verse 6]
[G]Pity, take [D]pity on [C]me.
Cause [D]I'm not half the man
that [C]I should b[Em]e.
And [G]I don't blame you,
You've had enough,
Of all these [C]empty promises

[Verse 7]
and countless bluffs.
[G]Cause I know you can't
[Em]hold out [C]forever[G]
Waiting on a [Em]diamond and
[C]a tether[G][D]
From [Em]a boy who won't [C]jump
when [B]he falls [Em]in love.
He [A]just stands with [C]his toes on the [Em]edge
And [A]he waits for it do [C]disappear again.
[G]
