Ethel Cain – Waco Texas (Guitar)

E                       E                    Asus2    Asus2
    My honey’s heart is blue and a second offbeat

E                     E                           Asus2    Asus2
    Always tugging at me like he’s running out of daylight

E                      E                                Asus2                      Asus2
    Yeah, my baby acts cool but they all know something ain’t right, ain’t right

E                    E              C#m7           Asus2    Asus2
    Only acting this cool when he’s walking with me

E      E               Asus2
    1998 forever and a day

                    Asus2
I keep the pictures hanging where the world can see ‘em

E            E
I hope I die today

                     Asus2                 Asus2
Save me from another late night of red eyes

E            E            Asus2
But then the morning comes

         Asus2                        E
You were there looking for me but I

       E              C#m7               Asus2
I was gone, turned my back for a moment and

               Asus2
You had fallen apart

E                              E
    They’ve been promising the lights as we beg for our lives

Asus2                        Asus2
    Selling pages of the times we’ve been waiting on

E                        E                            Asus2    Asus2
    Now the weight’s too much and I can’t hold you anymore

E                       E
    How much of a cruel year can you call my fault?

Asus2                     Asus2
    Not even the memories are immortal

E                     E         C#m7
    Terrified on this side of a conversation

Asus2                  Asus2
    A conversation we’ll never come back from

E                       E                     Asus2
    I’ll never live it down if I never get around it

                Asus2
Cause goddammit, I did it to myself in hindsight

E                         E                    Asus2                           Asus2
    I liked him cause his rule was do whatever you like and I tried alright

E      E                             Asus2    Asus2
    I loved you when it hurt inside to

           E
But in the low light

E                C#m7        Asus2    Asus2
You know I’d do anything for you

E                E      Asus2           Asus2
    You know I’d do anything for you

E                 E                          Asus2    Asus2
    You know it’s true cause I’ve said it to you

E              E              Asus2             Asus2
    Held in my arms, I swore I’d be good to you

E                E              C#m7            Asus2    Asus2
    Then sat and watched as you walked away from me

E
Yeah, you’ve changed

               Asus2
But did I ever know you?

                 C#m7
Facing away from me

                Bsus         
The air in your room never moves

Asus2           Bsus         C#m7    
Live and die by TV no one’s watching

Bsus    Asus2
  Do you hate me?

Bsus             C#m7 Bsus
When this is over

                       Asus2
Maybe then we’ll get some sleep

E                               Asus2
I’ve been picking names for our children

                                       C#m7
You’ve been wondering how you’re gonna feed them

Bsus                             Asus2
Love is not enough in this world

    Bsus      C#m7     Bsus          Asus2 Bsus
But I still believe in Nebraska dreaming

                C#m7 Bsus
Cause I’d rather die

                        Asus2
Than be anything but your girl

E
I never meant to hurt you

                      Asus2
But somehow, I knew I would

                                                            E
Will it be like this forever? (forever?) forever? (forever?)

E
I’d reach into your body

                 Asus2
And fix you if I could

                                                            C#m7
Will I feel like this forever? (forever?) forever (forever?)

        Bsus
Are you angry?

       Asus2   Bsus
Do you hate me?

         C#m7         Bsus
Darling, time may forgive me

      Asus2
But I won’t

E                  Asus2        E
You know I'd do anything for you

                                          Asus2  C#m7
You know it's true, 'cause I've said it to you

           Bsus            Asus2          Bsus                              C#m7
Held in my arms, I swore I'd be good to you (be good to you, be good to you...)

             Bsus
Then sat and watched

                       Asus2
As you walked away from me (from me...)

     E                       Asus2       
So I bled til I cried, til I felt I might die

      E
To be known the way you should

                           Asus2
Is to put yourself through hell

        C#m7        Bsus             Asus2
Still I waited and tried, til it killed me

             Bsus
Cause you’re right

                C#m7
I can wait if I want

                   Bsus
But it’ll never be good enough like I

                  Asus2          E     Asus2
Want to believe it is (it is, it is...)
