G           Em        C              D
Be my mirror; show me what I can change
G                  Em
Don't go, I know that you know
C               D
Don't let me down softly

          G                                                   Em
Well, this all happened on a sunny day
Em
You still couldn't see it 
                       C
when it was just a half an inch away
D
Staring you right in the face, I say,
D                                  C                      G
"Why can't you just say what you mean?
Am                       C                      D
Why can't you say what you mean, baby?"

Shufflin' sideways
There's no way to get home
You're so slippery, frozen, ice cold, alone

Now I see that your expression's changed
Are you wishing you saved my place?
You're stranded on the ocean floor
Wonderin' what you could have said before
But why can't you just say what you mean?
Why can't you say what you mean, baby?

G                                       C
Well I've been workin' too many hours
Am                    C
Only for your loose change
G                                       C
This place is messy 'n' complicated
Am                    C
And it only gets you back out
Am
And I want out
D                                  C                      G
Why can't you just say what you mean?
Am                       C                      D
Why can't you say what you mean?
Am                       C                      Am     D               G  G  G
Why can't you say what you mean, baby?
