Ben Kweller – Letter To Agony (Guitar)

Am  Em
Oh, darling

F                 C   E
I'm not doing so well

Am                   A7
I'm so alone I just wanna come home

    Dm                    F
My spirits, they finally fell

          Am     Em    F                  C   E
Girl you know I never feared death before

Am                      A7                        G                   F
Out of the blue I feel like I am walking through tunnels down to the door

       G                           F
Every day I'm scared more and more

Am        Em
Personal power

F                      C   E
I used to have so much

      Am                          A7
Yeah, I could move mountains and fight off the demons

    Dm                  F
But I lost my sense of touch

Am  Em
So lovesick

F                  C   E
Worse than I ever knew

Am                          A7                           G                   F
All of your sweet talk and fine lines that you walk are making me mad at you

       G                   F
And I wanna be mean to you

        Am         Em
But it pains me to say that

F                       C   E
'Cause I know it's not real

Am                        A7                   Dm                      F
How can brain chemicals, small and so stupid, completely change how I feel?

Am           Em   F                       C   E
Connect the cable to my brain and rewrite

     Am                 A7                      G                      F
The last forty days and all of the toxic waste spewing from me tonight

   G                      F
I fear there's no end in sight

C              G                  G#dim
I love you so much it'll push you away

          Am   G   C
Push you away from me

                 G                G#dim          Am  G  Fm/C
And then I will hate, hate myself more than I do currently

              C
My love's extreme

Am        Em
Oh, Lady Libra

F                        C   E
Where's the balance now?

Am                              A7
Both sides you see, but there's no more sides left to me

Dm                   F
Let me just take my bow

       Am     Em
No, I won't deny you

F                   C   E
Though I wanted it all

    Am                      A7                    G                   F
But I played the angel who sits at the table and won't ever take the fall

          G                          F
Like the ref who can't make the call

    Am              Em
My sweet, sweetest sweetheart

F                      C   E
With those honey bear eyes

   Am                     A7                           G                          F
I won't let my craziness hold back your happiness and watch the years pass you by

       G                       F
You deserved a much better guy

        G                      F
Now I'm no longer scared to die

             G                       F
Just please bury me where you will be

         G               F
Next to you for eternity

        G                   Fm/C
No, I'm no longer scared to die

C              G                  G#dim
I love you so much it'll push you away

          Am   G   C
Push you away from me

                 G                G#dim          Am  G  Fm/C
And then I will hate, hate myself more than I do currently

              C
My love's extreme
