B
Left in the corner collecting dust
Gb
Patiently waiting while my fingers rust
E
I was locked in the coffin case
A
Not even on display
B
As you fret my frets decay
Gb
You pick up your other and you strum away
E
I listen from the other room
A A6 A7
Try to pull you out of tune

Thought I was everything you need
D A G
Thought at least you'd want to see this through
G D
I was caught in between
D A G
Giving up and calling out to you
G
Am I coming through?

Now you don't even write the chords down
Gb G B D* Bb D
You don't even play me anyhow, anymore
D Gb
Now you just keep cranking them out
Gb G B D*
Like you're trying to numb yourself
A A6 A7
With all this work but it's just not working out

B
George and his lover they gently weep
Gb
But I don't evеn get to breathe
E
I hardly makе a sound
A
And I'm totally unwound, it's like
B
All my flaws have become the things
Gb
That make you want to destroy something
E
And the reasons you started are lost
A
Now that the feeling has worn off
[Pre-Chorus 2]

Thought I was everything you need
D A G
Thought at least you'd want to see this through
G D
Your voice follows me
D A G
You sing perfectly out of tune
G D
I thought we had more time
D A G
I thought I could make it up somehow
G D
I try to weave between the lines
D A G
I try to turn myself up loud
G
Can you hear me now?
