[Intro]

| G | Gsus4 G | D6add11* | D6 D6add11* D6add11   | Cmaj7 | Cadd9 |


[Verse]

G                       Gsus4
  If it makes you less sad,
       G           D6add11*
I will die by your hand.
                           D6
Hope you find out what you are;
        D6add11* D6add11 Cmaj7  Cadd9
already know     what I  am.

G                           Gsus4
  And if it makes you less sad,
         G            D6add11*
We'll start talking again.
                    D6
You can tell me how vile
          D6add11* D6add11 Cmaj7  Cadd9
I already know     that I  am.

G            Gsus4
  I'll grow old,
      G         D6add11*
start acting my age.
                       D6
It'll be a brand new day
   D6add11* D6add11   Cmaj7 Cadd9
in a        life that you    hate.

G            Gsus4
  A crown of gold
               G            D6add11*
a heart that's harder than stone
                     D6
And it hurts to hold on,
    D6add11* D6add11     Cmaj7 Cadd9
But it's     missed when it's  gone.


[Chorus]

G*               Dadd11
  Call me a safe bet,
                N.C. Cmaj7  Cadd9
I'm betting I'm not
G*                         Dadd11
  I'm glad that you can forgive, 
               Cmaj7
only hoping as time goes,

you can forget.
      

[Instrumental]

[Verse]

G                       Gsus4
  If it makes you less sad,
          G            D6add11*
I'll move out of this state.
                     D6
You can keep to yourself,
     D6add11* D6add11     Cmaj7  Cadd9
I'll keep     out of your way.

G                           Gsus4
  And if it makes you less sad,
               G            D6add11*
I'll take your pictures all down.
                   D6
Every picture you paint,
       D6add11* D6add11 Cmaj7  Cadd9
I will paint    myself  out.

G                   Gsus4
  It's as cold as a tomb,
         G            D6add11*
And it's dark in your room,
                     D6
When I sneak to your bed
        D6add11* D6add11 Cmaj7  Cadd9
to pour salt     in yo-------ur wounds.

G               Gsus4
  So call it quits,
   G     D6add11*
or get a grip.
                        D6
You say you wanted a solution,
    D6add11* D6add11   Cmaj7 Cadd9
you just     wanted to be    missed.


[Chorus]

G*               Dadd11
  Call me a safe bet,
                N.C. Cmaj7  Cadd9
I'm betting I'm not
G*                         Dadd11
  I'm glad that you can forgive, 
               Cmaj7
only hoping as time goes,

you can forget.

N.C. G     Gsus4  G5              D6add11*
                    so you can forget,
D6 D6add11* D6add11    Cmaj7  Cadd9
            you can forget.


[Bridge]

G                     Gsus4
  You are calm and reposed.
         G5       D6add11*
Let your beauty unfold

Pale white like the skin
  D6        D6add11* D6add11 Cmaj7
Stretched over       your    bones.
                      Cadd9
Spring keeps you ever close

                     G
You are second-hand smoke.
                       Gsus4
You are so fragile and thin.
         G5             D6add11*
Standing trial for your sins.
                  D6 
Holding on to yourself
D6add11* D6add11  Cmaj7
The      best you can.
                         Cadd9
You are the smell before rain.
                        (G*)
You are the blood in my veins.


[Outro]
 
G*               D6add11*
  Call me a safe bet.
                Cadd9
I'm betting I'm not.
G*                      D6add11*
  I'm glad that you can forgive,
                    Cmaj7
only hoping as time goes
                 G
That you can forget.
