[Intro]
[Gadd9] [D]
[Gadd9] [D]
 
[Verse]
 
[Gadd9]I'm not really sure if my words make sense t[D]to you
 
But I can't really find
[Gadd9]Any other way to form these feelings into cubes [D]
 
And sort them in my mind
[Gadd9]The negative thoughts go on the left [D]
 
And the happy things on the right
[Gadd9]And there's a little corner saved just for you [D]
[Bm]Please let me know if you change your [Gadd9]mind
 
Cause inside I'm falling
[D]And I need you to pull me out of this [A]decline
[Bm]I realise how hard on [Gadd9]you this must seem
 
But trust me
When I [D]say its far, far worse for [A]me
 
 
[Chorus]
 
[D]Please, please be here for me d[Gadd9]dear
 
Cause I've never needed a friend more
And [Bm]I cant stress enough how much it [Gadd9]means to me that you're trying
[D]And I don't mind if you can't hold me [Gadd9]like you used to
Cause I've never [Bm]hated myself more
But this is just a [Gadd9]bump in the road and I promise I'm trying
 
 
[Piano)
 
[D] [Gadd9] [D] [Gadd9]
 
 
[Verseii]
 
[Gadd9]Give me a moment to get my cards in lin[D]line
 
Cause I'm still trying to figure out
[Gadd9]In what kind of order I should set them out [D]
[Gadd9]If there was a way to explain [D]everything without a word
[Gadd9]I'd have a full house right now without a doubt [D]
[Bm]I'm trying to tear the wool from your eyes[Gadd9]eyes
But a part of me wants to let you be[D]be
Cause then you wouldn't see what I've [A]become
[Bm]I'm trying to shout but no sound comes out[Gadd9]out
 
It's like we're in a dream state
But I shou[D]should've woken up, woken up by now [A]
 
 
[Chorus]
 
[D]Please, please be here for me d[Gadd9]dear
 
Cause I've never needed a friend more
And [Bm]I cant stress enough how much it [Gadd9]means to me that you're trying
[D]And I don't mind if you can't hold me [Gadd9]like you used to
Cause I've never [Bm]hated myself more
But this is just a [Gadd9]bump in the road and I promise I'm trying
 
 
[Outro]
 
[D] [Gadd9]
