Emaj7 Now I know this letter is right out of the blue Dmaj7 All I ever wanted was to talk to you Emaj7 In a café, in a moving rented car Dmaj7 Heading to the nearest place that felt like far Amaj7 "Honey," can I call you that in secret print? Gmaj7 Words will never hurt you if the motive's clear F#m7 All I want for you is joy and peaceful love B Emaj7 Dmaj7 Who you get it from is not my main concern It's like a fountain every time I think of you Turning on the prose that would encircle you Though I messed it up, I figured that I might See you true and clearly in another life As the rain falls slowly on this sliding roof I'm inclined to tell you all about the truth Years of wondering what you were thinking of I've given into endless days of being a sloth If I could have the energy to chase the day I would end up chasing all the good away Endless youth is wasted on the fallen kid Down a tunnel of mistakes, they always fled Who is there to pick up on the bloody mess Who is there to mop their heads with tenderness No one human, nobody is good enough To envelope the human heart when life is rough How can this be done? How can I make it through? Teenage dreams do never what they're meant to do Knock a door and listen to the wisdom speak Leave your knife, your razor, and your make believe Though the world is fucked according to the news As we get you out of what you have to do Though the world is fucked and swinging to the right Doesn't get you out of what you have to do tonight You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsAmaj7  B  Dmaj7  Emaj7  F#m7  Gmaj7  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
