Chords

[Intro] G Am C D7 C#7 D7 [Verse]
                    G
I don't owe you my heart

                        Am
And I don't owe you my body

                              D7    C#7
But you should know that I'm sorry

D7                       G    D
  For being careless with you

                       G
Lord knows I owed you more

                             Am
That I'm pretty sure I ever could give anybody

                                  D7
But I can't pin down what normal people want from foreign objects,

                             G        G7
Bottom shelf erotic products, like me
[Pre-chorus]
   Am                                  D7
So I could hold your hand but keep you at arms' length, oh,

 Bm                                 Em
Hang me from a branch too high to climb and shake

      Am
Less rare than scarce, less diamond than rough

   D7
Unlikely to be more than just the coal you fail to crush
[Chorus]
    G                         C
And I-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i swear

             G
I'm really trying

          Am
Get it together, Will, know and do better

                    D7
It just don't come natural to me to think that you'd want me for me

G           G7          C
I-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i swear

             G
I'm really trying

         Am
Oh, I'm sorry, I promise, I'm doing my best

        D7
I just haven't learned how to be human as you are yet
G Am C D7 C#7 D7 [Verse]
                           G
I still don't know who you are

                           Am
I only know that I'm still lonely

                             D7
That morbid sort where even company can't cure me

                                       G
And the more you reassure the less I trust

N.C.                        G
But still you gave me your heart

                    Am
I only gave you my body

                           D7
Honestly thought nobody'd want it

                                                      G              G7
Let alone notice it's gone and so I left it home but now, now, now, now
[Pre-chorus]
          Am                           D7
I keep a locket with a picture on the back of my head

     Bm                                  Em
Oh, monkey-wrench my side view mirrors, ghost my friends

                 Am
I've lived more lives than enough, I haven't died quite as much

         D7
But I'm not a real person, just the shit you can't make up, and
[Chorus]
G                       C
I-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i swear

             G
I'm really trying

               Am
I'm just as exposed if I take off my clothes

                      D7
When we make the closest thing to love that I'm capable of and

G              G7                       C
I-i-i-i-i-i-i don't know why you would care

                 G
But I'm really trying

         Am
Oh, I'm sorry, I promise I'm doing my best

        D7
I just haven't learned how to be human as you are yet
[Bridge] G Am C D7 G Am C D7 D7 D7sus4
D7    D7sus4
Did I really

 Am                             D7
Have any of that gravity? Maybe you're quicksand

           Bm                               Em
Because I really couldn't tell how deep my footprints went

        Am
The vertex of my redemption arc, the searching of that virgin heart

     D7
I'm catatonic in your arms, cryin' "How did I cause so much harm?"

     Am
I'm down pounding my head

            D7
Against the kitchen floor

     Bm                          Em
Apologizing for my life and ever entering yours

               Am
Don't say "I'm sorry, but this can't go on", I know you've got scars of your own

     D7
But hide my knives before you go, I'll either live or die alone
[Chorus]
G                       C
I-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i swear

             G
I will die trying

                   Am
I'm still in the process but I'm making progress

             D7
I promise I honestly wanna prove improvement's possible

G           G7          C
I-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i swear

                G
I'm so fucking sorry

                Am
I'm not a good person, I'm barely a person at all

         D7                                         G
But someday I'll be perfect and I'll make up for it all
(And write a fucking song about it 'cause it has to be all about Will's fucking drama, god damn it! Sorry. Fuck, I'm sorry.)
