(CAPO 3)

Em			       C
baby, i know i am crazy and it pains me to find 
G			    D
you spending all your time  talking me down from heights 
    C				Em		      G
and watching for warning signs, looking into overcast eyes
     D			C	 G	    D       C
that predict the coming storm. i beg you to keep me warm.

	   Em
they warn, here comes another night of 
G		   D		 C
holding me while i cry until the morning. 
   Em
so lock the doors, draw the blinds, 
G
bring the furniture inside and 
D		     C
wait for it to start pouring. 'cause 
G	   D	        C
it's gonna come down in torrents.

Em		
somehow and somewhere i found you and i 
C		       G
suckered you into this one-sided relationship.
D			  C 
it was a dirty trick, the truths i distorted. 
  Em			    G
a simple bait and switch, a failing circus of 
D
perforated promises, 

C
like i am improving and it'll be worth it. like if i'd believe them, they'll become honest. oh, i am improving; it'll be worth it. i am improving; it'll be worth it. 

G	     D	   C
it's nice of you to wait, darling, 
G	     D     C	
while i make all my mistakes. 
G	        D           C
i can't say how long it will take. 
	   G      D	    C
there's no end in sight, i'm afraid. 

	G	 D	    C
but the kindness you've displayed 
G	  D	      C
without a hint of impatience, 
  G	       D     C
i pray that it infiltrates
   G           D	  C 
my madness and soothes all the mayhem.

    Em
the city wears rain like a veil 
    C
and i failed to meet her glance, 
G
just the wail of an ambulance 
D
sails down the back of my neck, 
C
leaves through my fingertips. 
Em		       G
everything's coming up pale, 
      D		   C
oh, i feel my body grey.
       Em		  G 
i need perpetual motion, perpetual sound 
   D		     C
to keep my thoughts away. 
Em G D C
okay.
