Fixation Tabulatur von Emma Blackery (für Baryton)

G                               
I couldn't feel any more trapped
      C         D
than already I do
G                              
Stuck inside, stuck inside this
         C         D
state of mind with you
                  Am           
And yet you only smile like I'm
       D
your friend
                Am                 
For now my happiness depends on how
           D
well I pretend

G 
Can we forget that we are bound by
all these
C (or C9 ) 
ropes and strings 
                    D 
That tie us up like this 
G 
And when we wake up we can go back
to the world that
C (or C9) 
only wants us 
         D 
To be friends 
                Am                
And I hope that when I sing you're
             D
looking up at me
                  Am             
So you can see my eyes are filled
                        D
with hope for what could be

I know I'm
 G
bound to this fixation for as long
as I stay here
            C (or C9 ) 
Sometimes I wish I could just leave 
                  D 
So you could come running after me 
       
And the
 G
perfect world we're after always
seems to disappear
                     C (or C9 ) 
I wish that we could find a way 
                 
To make it out of
 D
here 

                         Am       
But that would mean that all we've
                        D
done would simply go to waste
                Am                 
I'm trying to convince myself we're
                D
better off this way
                  Am           
Because you only smile like I'm
        D
your friend
                    
I wish someone would
 Am
shake this out of me
           
Or shake it
  D
into you 

                  Am           
And yet you only smile like I'm
      D
your friend
                Am                 
For now my happiness depends on how
           D
well I pretend
