Verse 1:
Am Am C C F F
On some level I think I always understood
Am Am C C F F
That these hands of mine were clumsy not clever
Am Am C C F F
And I tried to do the best that I could
D D F F
But try as I might I could not bring myself to hold you

Interlude -x2-: Am C F

Verse 2:
Am Am C C F F
It's a secret I keep tucked inside my chest
Am Am C C F F
With this heart of mine thats guilty not remorseful
Am Am C C F F
There is love that doesn't have a place to rest
D D F F
But it would have buried you if it had settled on your shoulder

Verse 3:
Am Am C C F F
On some level I think I always understood
Am Am C C F F
That a ship could never really love an anchor
Am Am C C F F
So I did the only thing that I could
D D F F
And severed the rope to set you sailing from my harbor

Interlude -x2-: Am C F

Verse 4:
Am Am C C F F
There are times where I still wonder a-bout you
Am Am C C F F
You are someone I have loved but never known
Am Am C C F F
And you'll never see the reasons I had
D D F F
For keeping my claws away when they were close enough to hurt you

Verse 5:
Am Am C C F F
I am selfish I am broken I am cruel
Am Am C C F F
I am all the things they might have said to you
Am Am C C F F
Do you ever think of me and my two hands
D D
And wondered why
F F
They never soothed your fevers
D D
And wondered why
F F
They never tied your shoes
D D
And wondered why
F F
They never held you gently
D D
And wondered why
F F E E
They never had the chance to lose you

Chorus:
Am Am C C F F
Am Am C C F F
Oh woh oh oh oh woh oh oh woh oh
Am Am C C F F
Oh woh oh oh oh oh
Am Am C C F F
Oh woh oh oh oh woh oh oh woh oh
Am Am C C F F
Oh woh oh oh oh oh
