Front Porch Step - Drown

Well ^EmI'm so ^Ctired of the rain falling softly on the ground, just ^Genough to get my feet wet but ^Dnot enough to let me drown.

I'^Emve be^Cen laying in my bed wishing I had never woken, ^GBegging ^DGod to rid my head of every word you've ever spoken.

^EmBroke my ^Cknuckles on the wall because I thought about the call Where you ^Gsaid you'd always love me,

Do you not ^Dtell the truth at all? We^Emll if I ever cross your mind ^Cmake sure you write down the times,

so ^GI will ^Dknow the moments I was eating you alive.

Now I ^Emlay ^Chere ^Gwaiting with the hope that I might find some sleep. I ^Dneed ^Emsome sleep tonight.

^C'Cause I've ^Gbeen waiting on your call but I know it will never come but I'm ^Dstill ^Emwaiting by the phone.

And don^Em't you dare, don't you dare, say you ever loved me, or even tell me that you cared Cau^Emse you knew what you were doing and you know just what you've done.

How ^Gdare you say you miss me with your ^Dspit still on his tongue? I am ^Embroken, I am beaten, I'm mistreated and I'm torn,

I am ^Gcold wit^Dh no direction but I'm lost without your warmth. I'm ^Emtrying hard to find some hope that I might get the chance to breathe.

Get ^Goff my ^Dmind, give back my heart and get the fuck away from me! I ^Emknow I couldn't give you much, but I know I gave my best,

you were ^Galways my princess, and now he's ^Dsliding up your dress. And I ^Emknow I gave the world everything I've ever had,

Johnny ^GCash said love would burn, I never ^Dthought it hurt this bad.

Well ^EmI'm so tir^Ced of the rain falling softly on the ground, just ^Genough ^Dto get my feet wet but not enough to let me drown.

I've^Em been ^Claying in my bed wishing I had never woken, b^Gegging ^DGod to rid my head of every word you've ever spoken.

B^Emroke my ^Cknuckles on the wall because I thought about the call where you ^Gsaid you'd always love me,

do you not ^Dtell the truth at all? Well if I ^Emever cross your mind ^Dmake sure you write down the times,

so ^GI will know the moments I was ^Deating you alive.

You are the ^Emitch that's on my back, you are the ^Cgum under my shoe,

you are the ^Ghorrors of my past, you are the ^Dchill that haunts the room,

you are c^Emreaking on my steps, you are ^Ccancer, you are plague,

you are ^Gregret, you are disease, I wi^Dsh that you would go away.
