[Verse 1]
A                 E
  This isn’t good morning
                     B
this is gracious bad news
                  C#m
I was calling to scar you
     B                 A
with what I’m about to do
                      E
Cause you burned your sorrows
                  B
and I burned mine too but
             C#m
you kept the ashes and now
B               A  E
they’re keeping you.
 
 
[Chorus 1]
A
  What’s it like to be
E               B
honest honestly happy
                C#m
and say all the things
         B
that you know that
you’re thinking?
A
  What’s it like to be
E               B
honest honestly happy
and say all the things
that you know that
                 A
you’re thinking? I don’t
E    B         C#m     B
need anyone or anything
   A            E
Between you and me is
  B
a distance that I
                    A
bridge with sleep so
 
 
[Verse 2]
E
I’m cutting clearly and
straight to your room
B
Crawl in your bed to
     C#m        A
that windowless view
            E
Cause these blankets
and sheets will bury me
     B
if I let myself go to
     C#m        A
your father's beliefs

You will always be the boy who
 C#m     B      A        B
stumbled in too soon she said
C#m      B      A          E
You will always be the boy that
 C#m     B      A    B
stumbled in too soon she said

    A
and I don’t
E    B         C#m     B
need anyone or anything
   A            E
Between you and me is
  B
a distance that I
bridge with sleep so
 
 
[Chorus 3]
  A
I want it so badly
    E
but I had to break
     B
that promise I made
         C#m
for your front porch
     B      A
that day I spent last
              E
night talking secrets
               B
and graves the place
that my promise has
C#m            E
now wormed its way.

[Bridge]
         A
And your parents were on
your front lawn screaming
B
I’m the kid that’s keeping
             C#m
you lost and I could never
                 E
be what you want I could
never I could never
         A
And your parents were on
your front lawn screaming
B
I’m the kid that’s keeping
             C#m
you lost and I could never
                 E
be what you want I could
never I could never
 
 
[Outro]
         A
And your parents were on
your front lawn screaming
B
I’m the kid that’s keeping
             C#m
you lost and I could never
                 E
be what you want I could
never I could never
