[Verse 1]
Am Dm Am What is it that I need that I don't already have? E Who was there in the past that I couldn't seem to save? Dm E Dm E But will I seem so smart, me and my broken heart Am F E Am When I am pretending to be brave
[Verse 2]
Am E7 Am What is there up ahead that I can't already see? B7 E Startling as it seems, well, it's supposed to be Dm E Where am I going next? Dm E And if no one objects Am Fm E Am Just close the door and that'll be the end of me
[Bridge]
C
What is it that I lost that I don't really needSome glasses for my eyes
G And an hour or two of speed Dm G Dm G My hands don't blister, my hands don't bleed F Am F Am But I'll never be contented, repent or ever be lamented Fm Am 'Til I'm planted down like rotten crops F E Am And covered up with weeds
[Verse 3]

What is it that I want that I can't already taste?A damson from a tree
Ddim E7 A girl that I once chased Am Dm E7 Dm E7 A girl who ran away and wanted to be caught Am F E Am Then bade farewell to my love like some merchandise she bought
[Bridge]
C Things are going up like blasphemous prayers G I burned up all my paper money on those London derrieres Dm G Dm G Prayers and paper money will burn until you choke F Am The things I should have said F Am They were so easily left unspoken F Am I didn't break you down F E Am You were already broken
[Verse 4]
Am What is it that I need that I don't already have? Dm E Who was there in the past that I couldn't even see? Dm E Dm E But will I seem so smart, me and my broken heart Am F E Am When I am pretending to be free? Am F E Am When I am pretending to be free? Am G F Em Am When I am pretending to be free
