Chorus:
[Gbm]Girl, I hope you understand
I[D]I wanted to hold your hand
But I can't,[A]can't, wanted to be your man back then[Db7]then
And[Gbm]And you knew I fell for you but you
[D] Just broke my heart in two
I was sad,[A]sad, mad and broken on my bed
[Db7]Hoping I get rid of all the voices in my head
Verse 1:
I was [Gbm]opening a packet of an undeveloped med
When I was [D]met with a prescription of a bullet made of lead
And when I [A]woke up in an hour in a pool of my own sweat
I said, I [Db7]swear to God I'll never even try to sleep again
So ins[Gbm]instead I took my pen and started writing evidence
And when I [D]started making sense
I found that I had reached the end
Oh, I'm up[A]upset, I have no friends
You wanna bet you're just pretend?
You're just a [Db7]pet confined within the lines of writing
You're not xxxx
Verse 2:
I [Gbm]thought I stopped my psychopathic [D]ways, I swear I did
I said I [A]talked to people 'bout the proble[Dbm7]problematic life I lived[Db7]lived
They were my [Gbm]neighbors, razor blades
And different [D]flavored pills I hate
Therefore I'm [A]not sure, leave my last straw
I'm so [Dbm7]glad, stuck in the [Db7]past, I said that
Chorus:
[Gbm]Girl, I hope you understand
I[D]I wanted to hold your hand
But I can't,[A]can't, wanted to be your man back then[Dbm7]then [Db7]
And[Gbm]And so far I never held you with my arms
[D] So it's hard to be the one you aren't
[A]With instead filled with anxiety
[Dbm7]Always was a part of me, [Db7]guess I'm not cut out to be
Verse 3:
Some[Gbm]Somebody 'cause it's not me
I'm not used to all the talk, it was an [D]Introvert
That had converted feelings in the writing
Used to [A]cope with all my problems
Using notes and lots of rhyming
Used to [Db7]hope for better days whenever
That's 'bout make me crying
I'm not [Gbm]lying when I say that I would rather daily go back
To the [D]times I would try be the guy the people know
I was [A]fighting with the demons hiding far beyond my eyelids
On an [Db7]island full of violence in my head that I could pilot
Verse 4:
[Gbm]Oh, the sun don't shine, the skies turn [D]gray
I'm feeling coursing through my [A]veins
I said before I'm not okay[Dbm7]okay But you don't lis[Db7]lis
ten anyway[Gbm]anyway
You know I tried, you turned away[D]away
Straight out loud right to my face[A]face
You xxxxed my life, ruined my day[Dbm7]day But you don't know,[Db7]know,
so I'll say
Bridge:
[Gbm] Nothing can fill this silence,[D]silence, no one can love like I did
[A] Nobody cares, you lied, it's[Dbm7]it's no fair, you [Db7]still deny it
[Gbm] Nothing can fill this silence,[D]silence, no one can love like I did
[A] Nobody cares, you lied, it's[Dbm7]it's no fair, you [Db7]still deny it
Chorus:
[Gbm]Girl, I hope you understand
I[D]I wanted to hold your hand
But I can't,[A]can't, wanted to be your man back then[Db7]then
And[Gbm]And too bad I know I can't wake up
Because I [D]lost my weight and you don't give a xxxx
G#out [A]me, this could be a dream, I can't [Dbm7]see
The things that you [Db7]see, so please, oh
[Gbm]Girl, I hope you understand
I[D]I wanted to hold your hand
But I can't,[A]can't, wanted to be your man back then[Db7]then
And[Gbm]And you know I'll play along you
[D] In my home I wrote you songs
And now you're [A]dead to me effectively
Re[Db7]Removed yourself outside my dream
