Intro: A E F#m D x2
Verse 1:
[A] I never [E]saw the
ocean [F#m]that way
I [D]never tried to
[A]leave I've been so
[E]down that I could
[F#m]cry I've been so
[D]up that I was [A]high
I never s[E]aw the
fields [F#m]that way
It's all [D]beautiful
to [A]me I'm feeling
[E]anxious more and [F#m]more
I'm staring [D]at the
[A/C#]floor[D] [E] I'm staring
A/C# D E(hold)
at the floor so
I don't fall apart
Verse 2:
[A] I'm not [E]trying
for the [F#m]best days
It's [D]only way I [A]know
I'm looking [E]forward
to the [F#m]days and
nights the [D]rumors
And the [A]only [E]times
f#m
I feel like I'm a
[D]part of something
Is [A]when I'm breaking
[E]down to you I
[F#m]swear I'll always
[D]tell the [A]truth[C#m][F#m][E]
Chorus 1:
And [A]really I don't
mean to sound so
[E]insincere When
you were down
I [F#m]tried my best
to offer some sort
[D] of half assed
conversation But
[A]all along I've kind
of felt that [E]waking
up brings hope to
sweat And [F#m]never
digging yourself [D]out
isn't really helping
Post Chorus: Guitar Solo
[A] [E] [F#m] [D]
Verse 3:
[A] I never [E]cared about
the [F#m]bad days or
[D]how they came to [A]be
Basements to [E]rooftops
messed up [F#m]chords I
always [D]forgot the
[A]words I spend way
[E]too much time in
[F#m]driveways But it's
[D]hard to go in[A]side
when you [E]realize
how [F#m]good it gets
I wish I [D]realized
that[A] more[C#m][F#m][E]
