Listen to the song to get some of the rhythmical aspects right ;)
Intro: Bm for about two bars
1. verse:
I would build walls Bm
For miles around me Em
Around anything that hurt A
Any sensitive category D
Kept loF#/C#ve at an arm's-lBmength
It was natural to me Em
You dF#/A#id not agree Bm
(same as first verse)
2. verse:
You said things like "Unhealthy"
And I took on the task
Of changing my pattern
All you did was ask
And the walls all came crashing
At a welcoming speed
I was convinced you'd never hurt me
Bridge/Pre-chorus:
And I used to cling to thBme back of your mind A
But I must have let go G
At the moment in time F#/A#
When she offered careless pBmhysical joy A
Both bouncing my heart arounGd
Like a cheap rubber toy F#/A#
Chorus:
And after countBmless
A/C#Hours
Of crDying
EmTryingF#/C# to forgBmive you
A/C#Believe you
Grow a spine and leave Dyou
EmGrieve you
I've cF#ome to this conclusDion,
(same as first verse)
3. verse
No one prepares you when choosing to stay
How to dare share a bed again
Keep demons at bay
She took something precious
That was just meant for me
Not for her eyes to see
(same as first bridge/pre-chorus)
Bridge/Pre-chorus
And I used to cling to the back of your mind
But you must have let go
At the moment in time
When she offered careless physical joy
Both bouncing my heart around
Like a cheap rubber toy
(same as first chorus)
Chorus:
And after countless
Hours
Of crying
Trying to forgive you
Believe you
Grow a spine and leave you
Grieve you (after the Em you take the F# here, even though the lyrics are a "line short")
And after countless
Hours
Of crying
Trying to forgive you
Believe you
Grow a spine and leave you
Grieve you
I've come to this conclusion,
Outro:
After alDl the years you invested iGn me
All the lovBme, tears, and possibilAities
I rEmealize that if the tables were turned F#/A#around
You wouldn't leave me now. Bm
