Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][D][G][D][A][G][D][A][Bm][G]
[D]

[Verse 1]
I remember [F#m]a
rooftop mak[F#]ing o[Bm]ut
Downstairs [G]the cupboard screamed so [D]loud
I waited so [F#m]long for that n[Bm]ight
Then I [G]just turned away

[Verse 2]
And [A]I know every s[Bm]treet on the West S[G]ide
But I was [D]lost, un[A]found, not [G]right
Maybe there's something
[D]wro[A]ng inside[G]

[Verse 3]
[D]
Now I've got [F#m]nowhere to [Bm]go,
my hands [G]is all that I've [D]got
I'm so sorry for [F#m]so many thi[Bm]ngs,
that [G]I haven't said y[A]et
This is the [Bm]waiting room [G]I
spend my whole life in
[D]They gave me a tho[A]usand
hands so [G]I could calm my sins
If I'm [D]lucky,
maybe I'll fin[A]ish [G]before the roof caves in

[Verse 4]
[D]
I lost my [A]life on the first [G]try
You found it [D]miles [G]down the line
A swollen face [D]with three [A]first [D]names
You kiss the [A]taste back in my [G]tongue
You suck the [D]smoke out of my [G]lungs
And then we [D]slept for days an[A]d days,
and [D]days
When [Bm]we woke u[G]p ,
[D]my heart had[Bm] choked up[G][Bm]
Had to [A]say I love [D]you way too [G]soon
But right [D]there on your [A]couch
you loved me [G]too
Right there on [D]your couch you
[A]loved me [G]too

[Interlude 1]
[D][A][D]
[Bm][G]

[Verse 5]
[D]Nineteen and sob[F#m]er once or twi[Bm]ce
I caught [G]some junky's bad ad[D]vice
Up to my [F#m]eye s in others
[Bm]problems
Couldn't [G]see I'd never [A]solve them

[Verse 6]
I'm [A]only [Bm]skin and bone and
[G]piss and pills unknown
[D]I took my lou[A]sy shot at
[G]public recognition
Could never [D]pull the trigger
if [A]I wasn't s[G]haking

[Verse 7]
[D]
I lost my [A]life on the first [G]try
You found it [D]miles down [G]the line
A swollen face [D]with three [A]first names
[D]

[Verse 8]
You kiss the [A]taste back in my [G]tongue
You suck the smoke out of my lungs
And then we [D]slept for days an[A]d days,
and days
[D]

[Verse 9]
When we [Bm]woke up,
[G]my [D]heart had choked[Bm] up[G][Bm]
Had to [A]say I love you [D]way too [G]soon
But [D]right there on your couch
[A]you loved me [G]too
Right there on [D]your couch [A]you loved me too
