The Wire

[Intro]
D~

[Verse]
         D
You know I'm bad at communication,

it's the hardest thing for me to do

And it's said, it's the most important part

that relationships will go through
        A                
  And I'd give it all away
  G
just so I could say that
D\
I know I know I know I know

that you're gonna be okay anyway


[Verse]
         D
You know there's no rhyme

or reason for the way you turned out to be

I didn't go and try to change your mind,

not intentionally
            A
I know it's hard to hear me say it
    G
but I can't bear to stay and
D\
I just know I know I know I know

that you're gonna be okay anyway


[Pre-chorus]
D  
Always keep your

heart locked tight,
                      A
don't let your mind retire, oh


[Chorus]
    G
But I just couldn't take it,
  D
I tried hard not to fake it
      Bm               
  But I fumbled and when
                    A
I came down to the wire
        G              D
It felt right, it felt right, oh
      Bm               
  But I fumbled and when
                    A
I came down to the wire
        G              D
It felt right, it felt right, oh
      Bm               
  But I fumbled and when
                    A
I came down to the wire


[Verse]
D
Does your imagination try

to make you what you wanted to be

Because I'm sorry I do what I did,

but it came naturally
     A                
  So I gave it all away
  G
just so I could say that
       D
Well I know I know I know I know

that you're gonna be okay anyway


[Verse]
D  
Well I try to keep

myself together,

after all the opportunities

I try to stay true to you and try

to do what you wanted for me
        A                
  And I'd give it all away
  G
just to hear you say that
       D\
Well I know I know I know I know

that you're gonna be okay anyway


[Pre-chorus]
D  
Always keep your

heart locked tight,
                      A
don't let your mind retire, oh


[Chorus]
    G
But I just couldn't take it,
D
I tried hard not to fake it
      Bm               
  But I fumbled and when
                    A
I came down to the wire
        G              D
It felt right, it felt right, oh
      Bm               
  But I fumbled and when
                    A
I came down to the wire
        G              D
It felt right, it felt right, oh
      Bm               
  But I fumbled and when
                    A    \
I came down to the wire
