[Am] [C]
[G]
[C] How
[Am] [G]
[C] many [G] times do I have to try [Am] to tell you [F] that I'm [C] sorry for the things I've done?
[G]
[Am] [Dm] [C]
But when I start to try to tell [G] you, that's when you have to tell [Am] me, hey, this [F] kind of
trouble's [C] only just [Em] begun.
[G]
[Am] I [G]
[D] tell myself too many times, why don't you ever learn to keep your baby in your arms?
To make [G] mouths shut, [D]
that's why it hurts so bad to hear the words that keep on falling
from your [G] mouth.
[A]
[F] Falling from your mouth.
[F#] Falling from your mouth.
Tell [C] me why.

[Am] [F] [C]
[G] may be viciously [Am] unkind
But I can still read
[C] What you're thinking

heard it said too [G] many times
That you'd be better off [Am] Besides
Why can't you see

This bone [G] is sinking
This bone is sinking
[Am] This bone is sinking
Let's [D]
go down to the water's edge
We can cast away those [G] doubts
[D]
Some things are better left unsaid
But they still turn me [G] inside out
[D]
[F] Turning inside out
[Am] [F#] Turning inside out
Tell [C] me why
[G] Tell [Am] [F] [C]
me why
[G]
[Am] [C]
This is the poker island
[G]
[Am] [F] These are the dreams I'm [C] dreaming today
This is the joy that's on [G] display
These are the tears we tear and we [Am] shed
This is the fear, this is the [F] dread
These are the contents [C] of my
These are the years of
[G]
[Am] This is hard
[F] [G] Do you [C] know how?
You [G]
[Am] know what I [F] feel
[C]
Why?
[G] [C] [F] [C]
