Verse: g7, cma7 Chorus: em/emsus, g7 Verse 1 I just can't do this no more My heart can't take it when you close the door I wear it all on my back But the strain pulls me down, like a constant attack Chorus I'm no farmer but I plant seeds And I'm no lover but I got what you need I'm no hero but I got soul Baby give me your hand and I'll make you whole Verse 2 I'm tired of being no one's choice I scream into the void, but I got no voice Sometimes I wish I would just disappear

Capo 2 Verse: G, D, Esus, Cma7 Chorus: Gm, D, Cma7 Verse 1 When I woke up this morning I didn't think my eyes would fall on you It's like a ray of sunshine Came up and lit up my darkened room You give me hope without knowing You don't even know I exist And in my dreams, I am holding you And I am trembling from when we kissed Chorus And I'm thinking of you And I'm dreaming of loving you Verse 2 And I don't have much hope these days I'm just waiting for a miracle And I don't wa

Capo 4 Verse: Gm, em, cma7 Chorus: Dmaj, em, cma7, gm Verse 1 Ever since you left me here I've been wondering why it's not clear There's all these mixed signals in the air But it seems like you just don't care I've been a fool and a clown While you planned your way out of town And you made me think I was weak And that all that I offered was bleak Chorus All of the bad times, they remind me Of what I forgot, the love inside me Verse 2 I got it wrong too sometimes But you made
