I never really thought

that you could be

the one to change
  Fm          Ab
I can't understand
      Bbm     C#      Fm Ab Bbm C#
did I fail or did you?
       Fm
But if everything 
     Ab      Bbm C#
they said is true
         Fm
You're a fraction of 
  Ab       Bbm
a nickel's worth
     C#     Fm   Ab Bbm C#
In a golden field


Chorus 1:
Bbm
   And I don't really mind

if you're not my friend

difference because all I am

A lonely floating weed is all

So I'll stay with you in my mind
      C#          Cm
And I won't let myself

believe you're mine Because
C#
  I never ever thought that
Cm
it would get as hard as 
    Fm
this  My whole family the
side of the antagonist
C#
  And all the people I
Cm
thought I could trust
     Fm
Have just let me down
   C#               Cm      Fm
So don't waste your life at home

  Fm           Ab
I never really thought about 
   Bbm    C#    Fm  Ab Bbm C#
my life until I died
  Fm          Ab          Bbm
I can't understand why my sister 
       C#   Fm     Ab    Bbm    C#
didn't even try to understand me
       Fm         Ab           Bbm C#
But if everything they said is true
    Fm           Ab
You mean less to me than 
  Bbm  C#       Fm  Ab Bbm C#
a tiny grain of salt


Chorus 2:
Bbm
   And I don't really mind
                 C#
if you're not my blood
It doesn't make a

A fleeing bird is all I was
