[Intro] Eb Ab Eb [Verse 1]
Eb
I went through this door

             Fm
For no other reason
Than it wasn't open
Bb                Eb                                     Ab
And sometimes I'm foolish enough to believe encouraging things

                                   Eb
But most times I'm cautiously less optimistic
A face in the crowd
             Ab
I wish to be found

                                 Eb
I worry so often for those who escape
I wonder out loud
               Ab
I sleep at odd hours

                                             Eb
And I write 'cause I never know just what to say
Ab Bb Eb Ab Bb [Verse 2]
Eb
My friends all believe me

               Fm                   Ab
When I say I'm busy with pretty big things

              Eb
I cancel most plans
I hurt someone's feelings
                Fm
I feel like I'm starting

                  Ab                        Eb
And just when I'm starting, I'm starting to stray
[Chorus]
                             Fm
And everyday, I take a white page

                                       Cm
And try very hard to know just what to say

             Ab                Eb
Just what to say, just what to say

                                     Cm
I try very hard to know just what to say

             Ab                Eb
Just what to say, just what to say
[Verse 3] I've planted some clues
                     Fm
That I hope you find easily

                                           Eb
Things that I find hard to speak clear and true
I think there's a part of you
           Ab
Hoping I'm hoping you feel like I do

                 Eb
And maybe you're listening somewhere you like to be

              Ab
Where you let everything heavy just go

                Eb
Oh, I'd like to be there
How I'd like to stay
                Ab
How I'd like to listen

                                            Cm
How I'd like to think I'd know just what to say
[Chorus]
             Ab                Eb
Just what to say, just what to say

                                     Cm
I try very hard to know just what to say

             Ab                Eb
Just what to say, just what to say
[Bridge]
Ab                 Eb
Somebody, somebody blocked the door

Ab            Cm     Bb
I know it was me for sure

Ab           Eb                     Bb
But somebody knows where I'm hidden away
[Chorus]
                                     Cm
I try very hard to know just what to say

             Ab                 Eb
Just what to say, just what to say

                                     Cm
I try very hard to know just what to say

             Ab                Eb
Just what to say, just what to say

                                     Cm
I try very hard to know just what to say

             Ab                Eb
Just what to say, just what to say
