Tom : Am
Am F
Maybe I should just be clear
Am G7
It sucks not having you here
Am
There ain’t a better way to say it
F G7 Am
Other than how I just said it, clear, clear, clear, clear
F
Like a bottle of Evian, you can see through me
G7
My ego ain’t here
F G7 Am
So many clever words and nice things that I could say
F G7 Am
But the truth then and the truth now has been the same
[Refrão]
F C G7
The hardest thing to say is what I ain’t saying
F C G7
And the best way to say it is to just say it
F C
I wanna run away from the words
Am G7
But I can’t run away from the world
F C G7
Cause the hardest thing to say is usually worth saying
Am F G7
Girl, I love you, still
[Próxima Parte]
Am F
I try to go some months without a call
Am G7
I mean, I'm an attractive guy and all
Am F
Maybe I could find something in the club
G7 Am
Or something in the mall, mall, mall, mall
Am
But them girls didn’t matter
F G7
And this money ain’t distracting me much at all
F G7 Am
So many clever words and nice things that I could say
F G7 Am
But the truth then and the truth now has been the same
[Refrão] (repetir)
[Próxima Parte]
F
Girl I wanted to cry
Am
But I made it look easy (it ain’t easy)
G7 F
To hold it in and save face
F
And it was harder to stay
Am
So I made it look easy (it ain't easy)
G7 F
To just get up and walk away
F G7
Now I’m alone and the tears do fall
Am G7
Open my mouth and the words do fall
F G7 F G7
Now I'm standing here after all, with this broken heart
[Refrão] (repetir)
