capo on 3

VERSE

Em     G
head under water
     Bm
and they tell me
      D
to breathe easy for a while
Em         G
but breathing gets harder
   Bm   D
even I know that

Em        G
you made room for me
          Bm
but it's to soon to see
    D
if I'm happy in your hands
Em      G      Bm   D
I'm unusually hard to hold on to

PRECHORUS

Em      D
blank stares at blank pages
G    A
no easy way to say this
Em       D         G
you mean well, but you make this hard on me

CHORUS

             Em
I'm not gonna write you a love song
      A
'cause you asked for it
      D
'cause you need one
   G               Em
you see I'm not gonna write you a love song
      A
'cause you tell me it's
      D
make or breaking this
      G
if you're on your way
          Em    D
I'm not gonna write you to stay
   Bm               E
if all you have is leavin' I'm gonna need a better reason
  G     A
to write you a love song today

Em G Bm D

VERSE

Em      G
i learned the hard way
     Bm
that they all say
D
things you wanna hear
Em      G
and my heavy heart
    Bm   D   Em
sings deep down under you
       G
and your twisted words
        Bm
your help just hurts
    Em            G
you were not what i thought you were
Bm    D
hello to high and dry

PRECHORUS
