[Intro]
4 bars of drum beat - no lyrics
[Verse 1]
I was Estaring at the skCy, just Glooking for a sBm7tar
To pEray on, or Cwish on, or Gsomething like tB7hat
I was hEaving a sweet fCix of a Gdaydream of a Bm7boy
Whose rFeality I Emknew, was a A7hopeless A7to be A7had
But A7then the Edove of hCope began its Gdownward sBm7lope
And I belEieved for a moment thatC my chances
Were Gapproaching to be B7grabbed
But as it Ecame down nearC, so did a wGeary tFear
I E7thought it E7was a A7bird, but A7it was jF9ust a F9paper F9bag F9
[Chorus]
G Cmaj7 Fadd#11 G
Hunger hurts, and I want him so bad, oh it kills
Cmaj7 F9add#11
Cause I know I'm a mess he don't wanna clean up
G Cmaj7 F9add#11 G
I got to fold cause these hands are too shaky to hold
Em7 A7 F9 G B7add#9
Hunger hurts, but starving works, when it costs too much to love
[Verse 2]
E And I went Ccrazy agGain today
Bm7Looking for a stErand to climb,C looking for a Glittle hope B7
E Cadd9Baby said he Gcouldn't stay
Bm7Wouldn't put his F6lips to mine and a Emfail to kiss is a A7fail to A7cope A7
I A7said, "EHoney, I don't Cfeel so goGod, don't feel Bm7justified
ECome on put a Clittle love heGre in my B7void,"
He said "It's Eall in your headC,"
And I said, "GSo's everything" but he didn't gF6et it
I E7thought he was aA7sus4 man but A7it was F9just a F9little F9boy
[Chorus]
F9 G Cmaj7 Fadd#11 G
Hunger hurts, and I want him so bad, oh it kills
Cmaj7 F9add#11
Cause I know I'm a mess he don't wanna clean up
G Cmaj7 F9add#11 G
I got to fold cause these hands are too shaky to hold
Hunger Em7hurts, but starving A7works
When it F69costs too much to lGove
Cmaj7 Fadd#11 G
Hunger hurts but I want him so bad, oh it kills
Cmaj7 F9add#11
Cause I know I'm a mess that he don't wanna clean up

I got to fold cause these hands are just too shaky to hold
Hunger Em7hurts, but starving A7works me
When it F69costs too much to lGove

Hunger hurts but I want him so bad, oh it kills
Cmaj7 F9add#11
Cause I know I'm a mess that he don't wanna clean up

I got to fold cause these hands are just too shaky to hold
Hunger Em7hurts, but starving,A7 it works
When it F69costs too much to lGove,
