	  		(intro) Am C G  

Am                   C 
It would simply say everything 
        G 
if you would take a pen 
                         Am 
and write my name on a friend 
 C          G 
who never cared to let me in. 
Am               C 
    Then take a fast ravine thats for 
G 
three years swimming straight upstream 
         Am     C                      G 
and the wiiind, the wind will drag me down in the end. 
Am          C 
 you live inside my wall and I 
G                                    Am 
I reach back and hit harder than GOOOoood falls 
C         G 
  christ amen, amen, amen 
Am              C 
 you're such a line to break and I, 
G                                               Am 
I'm so scared to make a fucking mistake in the end... 
C    G                         D              G 
 but I just wanna be happy agaaaaain, agaaaaiiiinnn 
          Am        C 
until it all falls down 
                      G 
and where does that leave me? 
       Am                     C                  G 
with things, things, I've got so many things to say. 
             Am    C            G 
and with a broken heart and a straight face, 
                           Am   C  G 
I'm saying brother, "help meeeee" 
                       Am           C      G 
Brother, would you heeeeelp meeeee? 

Am            C 
It's just a natural phase, that I, 
G                                              Am 
I go through and then it's taken away and then bam! 
      C                   G 
bam! IIIIIII'm fixed (I'm fixed, I'm fixed, I'm fixed) 
    Am                      C 
but I, but I'm in another place to be, where I 
G                                             Am 
I can't sleep without the thought of me being so, 
        C         G                                 (pause) 
so daaaaaamn sick... But I'm sick, I'm sick, I'm sick 
                 D                       G 
so take this soooooong, take this song awAAaay 
          Am           C 
until it all faaaalls down, 
                      G 
and where does that leave me? 
       Am                     C                  G 
with things, things, I've got so many things to say. 
             Am        C            G 
and with a brokeeeen heart and a straight face, 
                                     Am                   C 
and then all he said "reach for the girl, reach for the girl 
               G 
and hold her close, 
                  Am                     C 
believe you can shine when you're silver 
                    G 
and I promise you gold, I promise you gold 
                      Am        C 
and whenever you're dark iiiiinside, 
       G 
dooooooooon't  leeeet go 
                   Am 
remember there's rain 
                       C                    G 
and there's candy, and christmasy winter snow, snow, snow 
                 Am 
and remember, I love you the same 
C 
and I'll strangle your pain" 
     G 
and he tells me to sing, so I sing, and I sing 
     Am                       C (pause) 
for my brother who keeps me sane, 
                G 
and tells me  "everything will be O.K."
