[Verse 1]
N.C.             E
I don't wanna die

                    A
At least not without you

                  F#m
Alone here in the August heat

                      A
In the shadows of the afternoon
[Verse 2]
                 E
I don't wanna die

                     A
But I'm petrified of getting up

                                F#m
And there's a draft coming from underneath

                   A
A door I swore I'd painted shut
[Verse 3]
                      E
I'm staring at the sun

                          A
Even though I'm sure that I'm asleep

                             F#m
And it's expanding out to swallow us

                         A
I can feel the low, persistent heat
[Verse 4]
                  E
I don't try to run

                        A
I wait out there on the porch swing

                            F#m
And in the orange glow and eerie calm

                             A
The continent slides off into the sea
[Verse 5]
                  E
I don't wanna stay

                          A
Under the low clouds of a humid heat

                     F#m
I'm singing softly out of tune

            A
I can never find the key
[Verse 6]
                 E
I don't wanna die

             A
Or maybe I do

                        F#m
'Cause everything's so fucking dark

                           A
You found me crying in the other room
[Outro]
F#m                              A
It's been years since I've been low like this
I don't like me
F#m                   A
Playing piano with a broken wrist
I don't like me
F#m                           A
And I've been waiting at the window sill
I don't like me
F#m                   A
I need you to know I love you still
I don't like me E
