F5/C F5 Fsus2/Ab Fsus2/Bb
[Verse 1]
F5/C
He was certain, so was I
Db
there was comfort, in her sighs
Bb5
dreams and ideas, should not be the same thing
F5/C C
you waited, smiling for this?
[Verse 2]
F5/C
oh, she\’d want it, if she knew
Db
she could take it. i thought too
Bb5
be careful, be cautious, but you just wished harder
F5/C C
you waited, smiling for this?
[Chorus]
F/C
\”but they love you!\”, over, and over:
Bb/D
\”they love you!\”, thousands and thousands
F/A
of eyes, just like mine
Csus4 F5/D
aching to find who they are
F/C
\”but they love you!\”, oh you can feel how
Bb/D
they love you, coated and warm
F/A
but that\’s all they can do
Csus4 F5/D
words only get through if they\’re sharp.
[Interlude]
F5/C F5 Fsus2/Ab Fsus2/Bb
F5 Fsus2/Ab Fsus2/Bb
[Verse 3]
F5/C
oh how fitting, for one so fake
Db
make me a fairy, whatever it takes
Bb5
and just like a tale, my dream was a scam
F5/C C
you waited, smiling of this?
[Verse 4]
F5/C
i am burned out. i smell of smoke
Db
it seeps through her cracks, and so i start to choke
Bb5
sentences sit in her mouth, that are templated
F5/C C
you waited, smiling for this?
[Chorus]
F/C
\”but they love you!\”, over, and over:
Bb/D
\”they love you!\”, thousands and thousands
F/A
of eyes, just like mine
Csus4 F5/D
aching to find who they are
F/C
\”but they love you!\”, oh you can feel how
Bb/D
they love you, coated and warm
F/A
but that\’s all they can do

words only get through if they\’re sharp.

oh! I can just talk about it!

Bb/F
Bbsus4/F
maybe i\’ll talk about it
(maybe i\’ll talk about it)
Bb/F
Bbsus4/F
i\’ll never talk about it
(i\’ll never talk about it)
Bb/F
Bbsus4/F
no, i cannot talk about it.
Bb/F
[Outro]
F5/C
don\’t build hope
F5
on something broken
Fsus2/Ab Fsus2/Bb
I am not cartoon.
F5/C
cry for help
F5
i am not joking;
Fsus2/Ab Fsus2/Bb
i might just leave soon.
F5/C
don\’t build hope

on something broken
Fsus2/Ab Fsus2/Bb
I am not cartoon.
F5/C
cry for help
F5
i am not joking;
Fsus2/Ab Fsus2/Bb
i might just leave soon.
