[Intro] D A Asus2 (x2) [Verse 1]
D                                      A
I'm not really sure if my words make sense to you

     Asus2
But I can't really find

D                                           A
Any other way to form these feelings into cubes

      Asus2
And sort them in my mind

D                                     A
   The negative thoughts go on the left

      Asus2
The happy things on the right

D                                               A   Asus2
   And there's a little corner saved just for you
[Instrumental] D A Asus2 (x2) [Pre-Chorus]
F#m                                      D
   Please let me know if you change your mind
'Cause inside I'm falling
    A                                   E
And I need you to pull me out of this decline

F#m                          D
   I realize how hard on you this must seem

                    A
But trust me when I say

                          E
It's far, far worse for me
[Chorus]
A                             D
Please, please be here for me dear
'Cause I've never needed a friend more
    F#m
And I can't stress enough

            D
How much it means to me that you're trying

    A
And I don't mind

                     D
If you can't hold me like you used to

                  F#m
'Cause I've never hated myself more

                   D
But this is just a bump in the road and I promise I'm trying
[Instrumental] A D F#m D [Verse 2]
D                            A
Give me a moment to get my cards in line

         Asus2
'Cause I'm still trying to figure out

D                                        A   Asus2
   What kind of order I should set them out

D                                  A             Asus2
   If there was a way to explain everything without a word

D                                               A   Asus2
   I'd have a full house right now without a doubt
[Pre-Chorus]
F#m                                        D
   I'm trying to tear the wool from your eyes

                                A
But a part of me wants to let you be

                                         E
'Cause then you wouldn't see what I've become

F#m                                         D
   I'm trying to shout but no sound comes out
It's like we're in a dream state
                A                       E
But I should've woken up, woken up by now
[Chorus]
A                             D
Please, please be here for me dear
'Cause I've never needed a friend more
    F#m
And I can't stress enough

            D
How much it means to me that you're trying

    A
And I don't mind

                     D
If you can't hold me like you used to

                  F#m
'Cause I've never hated myself more

                   D
But this is just a bump in the road and I promise I'm trying
[Outro]
A   D
       I promise I'm trying
