Intro:
CFCC/BC/GF (2x)
Verse 1:
CF
I set all my regrets on fire
GC
Cause I know I'll never take the time
CF
To unpack my missteps and call all of our friends
GC
I figure they would take your side
Pre-Chorus:
FC
I make the bed, just not that well
F
Your name comes up a lot
F
When I talk to my mom
G
Oh, I think she can tell
C
I was out on the town
C/BC/GF
So I came to your window last night
C
I tried not to throw stones
C/BC/GF
But I wanted to come inside
CC/BC/GF
Now I'm causing a scene, thinking you need a reason to smile
AmGF
Oh no, what have I done?
FC
There's no one to keep me warm
CC/BC/GFVerse 2:
CF
So maybe I should put up a fight
GC
I'll call them back and borrow a box knife
CFGC
So I can learn to live with all the stupid s*** I've been doing since '99
CF
And I know I could be more clever
GC/B
And I know I could be more strong
CF
But I'm waiting for the day you come back and say
GC
"Hey, maybe I should change my mind"
F
I drink a lot
FC
I'm not sure if that's new
FFFF
But these days when I wake up from a night I forgot
G
I just wish that it never came true
C
I was out on the town
C/BC/GF
So I came to your window last night
C
I tried not to throw stones
C/BC/GF
But I wanted to come inside
CC/BC/GF
Now I'm causing a scene, thinking you need a reason to smile
AmGF
Oh no, what have I done?
FC
There's no one to keep me warm
CF
And I know I could be more clever
G
And I know I could be more strong
CF
And I know I could be more clever
G
And I know I could be more clever
CC/B
I knew there would come a day when all was said and done
(And I know I could be more clever)
FG
Everything I was is everything but gone
(And I know I could be more strong)
CC/B
All my big mistakes are bouncing off your wall
(And I know I could be more clever)
FG
The bottles never break, the sorrow never comes
(And I know I could be more clever)
CC/B
So come on let me in, I will be the sun
(And I know I could be more clever)
FG
I will wake you up, I am who I was
(And I know I could be more strong)
CC/BF
Just open up your heart, open up your heart, open up your heart
(And I know I could be more clever
And I know I could be more)
CC/BC
I was out on the town
C/BC/GF
So I came to your window last night
C
I tried not to throw stones
C/BC/GF
But I wanted to come inside
CC/BC/GF
Now I'm causing a scene, thinking you need a reason to smile
AmGF
Oh no, what have I done?
FC
There's no one to keep me warm
