[Verse 1]
G A7sus
You've seen my attempts to leave
C9
And poor excuses for a Personality, and a personality
G A7sus
Crisis I swear I'm not always like this
C9
Sometimes I just get selfish and win
G
And it's hard to pretend that I'm here
A7sus
I heard you're leaving next week
C9
Bet you'll be back home by the spring
I've heard a million different things
G A7sus
Hey whats really going on
C9
Hey whats really going on
[Chorus 1]
Em Dsus
Cause I've been hoping like hell
Em Dsus C9
We can find our way out of this mess
[Verse 2]
G A7sus
You've seen my attempts to speak
C9
I'm busting warnings like these
G
And we both know that they keep happening far too often lately
A7sus C9
I'm rarely on time cause I have nowhere else to be
It's like I'm stuck to this seat
G
Seven days of the week
A7sus
I've never felt this strong
C9
I've never felt this broken
I thought I would find
G
Find what I was hoping to
A7sus C9
And if you're choking I can stay
[Chorus 2]
Em Dsus
Cause I've been hoping like hell
Em Dsus C9
We can find our way out of this mess
Em Dsus Em Dsus C9
Yeah I'm hoping like hell we can find our way out

G A7sus
I've been a manic depressive
C9
These days I'm always obsessing about
How would I look in a mirror
G
I haven't slept in a week
A7sus
Too much thinking to get done
C9
I haven't seen you all week
Well I've been stoned and you've been working
[Bridge 1]
G
It's hard for me
A7sus
To watch you be
C9
So unhappy
When you're around me
G
It's hard for me
A7sus
To watch you be
C9
So unhappy
When you're around me
[Chorus 3]
