Hi! 2nd attempt of putting chords to the song. If you listen to the song, there's a picking pattern after the first bit. I'm not very good at writing picking patterns down but I'll try my best :P CAPO ON 5th FRET G C D I couldn't feel any more trapped than already I do G C D Stuck inside, stuck inside this state of mind with you Am D And yet you only smile like I'm your friend Am D For now my happiness depends on how well I pretend CHORUS G I know I'm bound to this fixation for as long as I stay here C (or Cadd9 ) Sometimes I wish I could just leave D So you could come running after me G And the perfect world we're after always seems to disappear C (or Cadd9 ) I wish that we could find a way D To make it out of here PICKING PATTERN: E]---------------------------------| B]--3-3-----3-3-----3-3-----3-3----| G]-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-2-2-2-2-| D]------------------------0-----0--| A]----------------3-----3----------| E]3-----3-3-----3------------------| (this goes on through out the whole song) G Can we forget that we are bound by all these C (or Cadd9 ) ropes and strings D That tie us up like this G And when we wake up we can go back to the world that C (or Cadd9) only wants us D To be friends Am D And I hope that when I sing you're looking up at me Am D So you can see my eyes are filled with hope for what could be CHORUS Am D But that would mean that all we've done would simply go to waste Am D I'm trying to convince myself we're better off this way Am D Because you only smile like I'm your friend Am I wish someone would shake this out of me D Or shake it into you CHORUS (Without picking patter - just one strum) Am D And yet you only smile like I'm your friend Am D D D For now my happiness depends on how well I pretend In the recording at the end, she keeps strumming the D chord until it fades.
