C
I found a letter that said:"I'm sorry that 

Em
you were asleep when I wrote these words down,"

C                                        Em
You'd think I'd ought to be used to that by now.

C
Save for a few of those late night episodes,

Em
Missed opportunities, and "I Don't Cares,"

C                         Em    E                G
There's not a lot that I feel obliged to share or talk about.

C
I'll have my brother stop by this Saturday to

Em 
pick up my things,Just make sure you're not there.

C                                          Em
This may sound bad, and don't take it the wrong way..

G
I love you, however,

C
You hold me down 

Em
you hold me down 

G
you hold me down 

D
you hold me down 

C
You're the echoes of my everything,

Em                         E
You're the emptiness the whole world sings at night.

G
You're the laziness of afternoon,

           Cadd9                  Dsus4
You're the reason why I burst and why I bloom.

C            G
How will I break the news to you? 

C            G
how will i break the news to you 

C
Cancel our dinner with Max and Coraline,

Em
feed Jacky's gerbil and try to stay clean.

C                                  Em         G
We'll talk it over after I've had some time alone to sort it out.

C
You hold me down 

Em
you hold me down 

G
you hold me down 

D
you hold me down 

C
You're the echoes of my everything,

Em                         E
You're the emptiness the whole world sings at night.

G
You're the laziness of afternoon,

           Cadd9                  Dsus4
You're the reason why I burst and why I bloom.

C
You're the leaky sink of sentiment,

Em                            E
You're the failed attempts I never could forget.

            Cadd9                       Dsus4         
You're the metaphors I can't create to comprehend this curse that I call love

C           G             
How will I break the news to you? (x5)
