F#m D F#m D
[Verse]
F#m D F#m D
You’d think that I would learn to hold my tongue once and for all.
F#m D F#m D
But I’m growing old and still running off my mouth like I can’t get enough.
E F#m D
But save your mercy for the lost.
E F#m D
I don’t have time for these regrets.
E F#m D
And don’t you dare remind me of the cost
E F#m D
‘cause how the hell could I forget?
F#m D F#m D
[Verse]
F#m D F#m D
And I’ve gotten good at pulling people in and pushing everyone away.
F#m D F#m D
I’ve shouted words and said hateful things that no one decent should say.
E F#m D
But save forgiveness for the weak.
E F#m D
I’ve made it this far on my own.
E F#m D
And I’m not the man of your dreams
E F#m D
but more like the sinner that you stone.
F#m E D E
[Chorus]
F#m E D
God only knows the darker side of me.
E F#m
The pieces of my heart I don’t want you to see.
E D
And heaven forbid you find out who I am
E F#m
‘cause if you knew the truth I’m terrified you’ll leave.
E D
I’ve got to change or I’ll die alone.
E F#m
And I don’t deserve all the grace that you’ve displayed.
E D
I’ll nail you to the cross again ‘cause once was not enough.
E F#m
My sinful heart feels way too gone now to ever be saved.
[Instrumental]
D
E C#sus2 F#m (2x)
[Verse]
E F#m D
So keep me close to where you are
E F#m D
‘cause God knows I’m prone to stray.
E F#m D
And write my name upon your heart
E F#m D
and swear you’ll always keep me safe.
