Intro - Am C Am C

Am                     C
Talking to myself in a breezeway
Am                           C
Putting down anything that I find
Am                         C
Be it liquor, or candy, or sadness or brandy
        F        Am          G
Or your words so soft and so kind

Am                        C
I wonder if I still own a bible
Am                                   C
If my fingerprints still sit on that page
Am                       C
The one about love, and why it's so patient
    F          Am           G
And why I have lost it with age

Am   C   Am   C

Am                       C
An answer never seems to escape me
    Am                           C
But now I'm feeling lost my dear god
     Am                C
I am sour and dry if I could I would cry
       F           Am          G
But my eyes barely open for sunlight

  Am                           C
I hate the way that you always think I'm
              Am                  C
you think I'm out to accuse for attack
    Am                     C
But I try and smile, cause after a while
  F              G             Am
I know you'll be smiling back
        F              G
Yeah, I know you'll be smiling

Am        G C
Am        G C
Am        G C    
Dm    Am    G

          Am                       C
Oh, and I wonder, do I still own a bible?
      Am                        C
Do my parents, do they really believe?
           Am  
Cause they know I've been hurt
               C
And if there's one thing I've learned
               F           G         Am
Don't put your trust in anyone or anything

Am
I said there ain't nothing to learn
C
Except pages they burn
    Am                           C
And people they change just like me
                        F        G            Am
So baby, don't put your trust in anyone or anything

Am  C   Am    G  C
