Love Song

[Intro]
Gm A# Dm F 2x

[Verse]
Gm         A#
head under water
         Dm
and they tell me
            F
to breathe easy for a while
Gm                 A#
but breathing gets harder
     Dm       F
even i know that

[Verse]
Gm                A#
you made room for me
                     Dm
but it’s too soon to see
       F
if I’m happy in your hands
Gm     A#                 Dm     F
im unusually hard to hold on to

[Pre-chorus]
Gm           F
Blank stares at blank pages
A#      C
no easy way to say this
Gm          F          
  you mean well, but you
            A#
make this hard on me

[Chorus]
                    
  I'm not gonna write
       Gm
you a love song
           C
'cause you asked for it
           F             A#
'cause you need one, you see
                    
  I'm not gonna write
       Gm
you a love song
           C
'cause you tell me it's
        F
make or break in this
        A#
if you're on your way
              Gm           F
I'm not gonna write you to stay
   Dm                      
  if all you have is leavin'

Today

[Verse]
Gm            A#
I learned the hard way
          Dm
that they all say
F                     Gm
things you wanna hear
         A#
My heavy heart
        Dm     F      Gm
sings deep down under you
         A#
and your twisted words
     Dm
your help just hurts
        F         
  you were not what
               Gm
i thought you were
A#        Dm       F   Gm
hello to high and dry

[Pre-chorus]
            F
convinced me to please you
A#            C                 Gm
made me think that i need this too
          F         
  I’m trying to
   A#
let you hear me as i am

           Am    A#
to help me see
                  F      C    Dm
with daylight, my guide, gone
         A                 A#
'cause i believe there's a way

  to write you a love
