David Wilcox (US) - Break in the cup

^Em7I try so hard to please you To be the ^Clove that fills you up I try to ^Em7pour on sweet affection, But I t^Chink you got a broken cup. Because you can't ^Embelieve I love y^Em7ou I try to t^Cell you that there is no doubt, But as ^Dsoon as I ^Gfill you w^Dith all I've ^Emgot That ^Clittle break will let ^Em7it run r^Cight ^Dout.

^GI cannot make you ha^Cppy. I'm learning lov^Ge and money never do ^{C C}But I can po^Bur myself out 'til I'm empt^Emy ^CTrying to be just who you'd want me to. ^{D G}But I cannot make you ha^Cppy ^B7Even though our love is ^Em7true ^DFor there's a break ^Em7in the cup that holds love ^D Inside of ^Gyou. G C G C

^Em7Now I begin to understand you ^G As you exp^Clain this fear you feel. It's when you see me fall^Em7 into that sorrow it makes you doubt^C the love is real. ^G 'Cause the lon^Gely wind still blows th^Crough me ^GI turn away^C so can't see But now^D how could^G I still b^De so empty ^Em With ^Call the love that you ^Em7pour on ^Cme. ^D

^GI guess you cannot m^Cake me happy ^GThat's a money back guarantee.^{C G}But you can ^Empour yourself out 'til you'^Emre empty ^EmTrying to be just who I'd want you to be. ^{D G}You cannot make me happy^C It's just the law ^Bof gravi^Em7ty And that bre^Gak in the cup t^Em7hat holds love^D, Inside of ^Gme.

^FSo if you're tempted to rescue me Drowning in this q^Cuicksand up to my neck ^G Before you grab^F my hand to save me ^C Why don^C't you ask me if I'm finished yet. ^D Because you^G cannot make me happy^C Not when I'm emp^Gty inside of me ^C But you can pul^B7l yourself right in here with me ^{Em Em}My misery'd love to^C have your company. ^D

We ca^Gnnot trade empty for ^Cempty We m^Bust go to t^Emhe w^Em7aterfall ^{G G}For there's a break in the cup that holds ^Dlove, ^GA break in the cup that holds l^Em7ove, ^GA break in the cup that holds lo^D/F#ve, ^Em7Inside us all. C Em7 C Em7 C Em C ^Em7Inside us all. C Em7 C Em7 C Em C
