[Intro]

       C   B
Oh yeah
   C    B
Oh yeah


[Verse 1]

C
 So scared of breaking it
     B
That you won't let it bend
C
 And I wrote two hundred letters
B
I will never send
C
 Sometimes these cuts are so much
B
Deeper than they seem
C
 You'd rather cover up
    B
I'd rather let them bleed

   C
So let me be
         B7
And I'll set you free


[Chorus]

Em   Am    D    G
   I am in misery
      Em      Am
There ain't nobody
        D       G
Who can comfort me
Em    Am        D      G
  Why won't you answer me?
      Em         Am     D      G
Your silence is slowly killing me

Em                 Am
  Girl, you really got me bad
D                  G
 You really got me bad
Em          Am
  I'm gonna get you back
D              G
 Gonna get you back


[Verse 2]

C
 Your salty skin and how
   B
It mixes in with mine
C
 The way it feels to be
   B
Completely intertwined
C
 It's not that I didn't care
     B
It's that I didn't know
C
 It's not what I didn't feel
     B
It's what I didn't show

   C
So let me be
         B7
And I'll set you free


[Chorus]

Em   Am    D    G
   I am in misery
      Em      Am
There ain't nobody
        D       G
Who can comfort me
Em    Am        D      G
  Why won't you answer me?
      Em         Am     D      G
Your silence is slowly killing me

Em                 Am
  Girl, you really got me bad
D                  G
 You really got me bad
Em          Am
  I'm gonna get you back
D              G
Gonna get you back


[Bridge]

Bm
  You say your faith is shaken
Am
  And you may be mistaken
B7
  You keep me wide awake and
G
Waiting for the sun
Bm
  I'm desperate and confused
Am
  So far away from you
C
 I'm getting there
               B
I don't care where I have to run

Em    Am     D           G
  Why do you do what you do to me, yeah
Em    Am        D          G
  Why won't you answer me, answer me, yeah
Em    Am     D           G
  Why do you do what you do to me, yeah
Em    Am        D          G
  Why won't you answer me, answer me, yeah


[Chorus]

Em   Am    D    G
   I am in misery
      Em      Am
There ain't nobody
        D       G
Who can comfort me
Em    Am        D      G
  Why won't you answer me?
      Em         Am     D      G
Your silence is slowly killing me

Em                 Am
  Girl, you really got me bad
D                  G
 You really got me bad
Em          Am
  I'm gonna get you back
D              G
Gonna get you back
