Capo 3rd Fret

Intro: E-G-E-G

1st Verse
E G
It’s not my problem anymore
E Esus - G
You see it never really was
E G
So you can stop caring as you call it
E Esus - G
And I’ll be fine right here

Esus G
You see that I can play a pretty convincing role
Esus C D
So I don’t need you, I don’t think I need you

Chorus:
E Esus - Am
But you see through my forever lies
Esus Am E
And you are not believing
E Esus - Am
And I see in your forever eyes
Esus Am E G
That you are forever healing

2nd Verse:
E G
You can’t hear what I’m not saying
E Esus - G
And I can hold out long enough
E G
Treading water I keep from sinking
E Esus - G
I’m not one for reaching
Esus G
You see that I can play a pretty convincing role
Esus C D
So I don’t need you, I don’t think I need you

Chorus:
E Esus - Am
But you see through my forever lies
Esus Am E
And you are not believing
E Esus - Am
And I see in your forever eyes
Esus Am E G
That you are forever healing

Esus - Am Esus - Am
Deny myself, Deny my heart
E
Deny your hand, Deny your help
Esus - Am Esus - Am
And you offer me eternity
C D
But why should I buy that?

Guitar Solo: E-Esus-Am (x2)

Esus G
You see that I can play a pretty convincing role
Esus C D
So I don’t need you, I don’t think I need you

Chorus:
E Esus - Am
But you see through my forever lies
Esus Am E
And you are not believing
E Esus - Am
And I see in your forever eyes
Esus Am E G
That you are forever healing

Repeat Chorus

Chords:
E 022100
G 320003
