[Verse 1]
E
Good morning baby

E
Guess you wanna touch me now?

E
You wanna put your hands on my face

E
Tell me you love me, tell me you need me

E
Don't say that you love me, don't say anything

A
Cause I am not that kind of man

A
I'm much less than you think I am

[Chorus 1]
E
So many people are just like Jesus

E
They drag all this weight, you can't see anything better

E
Don't know where they've been or where they are

E
Well tell me what the hell's the reason

E
When we never get anywhere?

A
But you want me to say "Hey, it's okay"

A
But I'm so dizzy, baby, just get the hell away from me
[Verse 2]
E
How can you breathe?

E
How can you see?

E
I can't even sleep when you're with me

E
I'm sick of summertime

E
I know, all of the best things in life are unkind

E
To be everything I could be, anything

E
But all the time I'm thinking, "If I only had a pair of wings"

E
But you want touch me

E
Just get your hands off me

A
Don't touch me

A
And baby, I can't see that you see
[Chorus]
A
How can you see?

A
How can you breathe?

A
I can't feel a thing when you're with me

A
I can't take it this way, I hope you understand

A
Don't you fucking touch me

A
I can hardly stand to look at you
[Outro]
E
How can you breathe?

E
How can you see?

E
How can you breathe?

E
How can you see?

E
I can't even sleep when you're with me

E
How can you breathe?

E
How can you see?

E
I can't feel

A
I can't feel a thing
{Fade}
A
Can't feel a thing

A
Can't feel a thing

A
Can't feel a thing
