[Intro]
Bm7 Em7
[Verse 1]
Bm7 Em7
Midnight paints your worn-out goodbyes
Bm7 Em7
Your bruised wrists and covered lies
Bm7 D D/C#
Your dreams flood with sorrow that just can't quite be disguised
Bm7
G A
And your lashes tremble as you lay by my side
[Verse 2]
Bm7 Em7
I swallowed pride and pills, and time stood still
Bm7 Em7
The one light in this motel lights up our dreams being killed
Bm7 D D/C# Bm7
Your breath hits my soul like hymns not sang
G A
While my mind races through the days I tried but couldn't save
[Chorus]
D D/C# Bm Bm/A
Tell me where it hurts, tell me where it burns
G A
Shakedown all my heartbeats, ravage all my words
D D/C# Bm Bm/A
We're both scared and broken, but I’ll hold you till the end
G A
Even if we don’t like our answers, I’ll love you like we’re friends
[Instrumental]
Bm7 Em7
[Bridge]
G A
Your body shutters, you say never mind
G A
Your heart dancing around the hope I can’t give, just like mine
D Em
I know I can’t make you see what you won’t choose
G A
I’ll stand here quietly with no answers to lose
D A
I’ll wait by your side and I won’t try to change the past
D A
If you need me here I’ll be here as long as this lasts
[Verse 3]
Bm7 Em7
You talk about rings, like the one I gave you ain't drowned
Bm7 Em7
Sneak off in the night like when we'd hide from this town
Bm7 D D/C# Bm7
Build something for our kids to call home
