Verse 1
F Bbsus2 My honey's heart is blue and a second offbeat
F Bbsus2 Always tugging at me like he's running out of daylight
F Bbsus2 Yeah, my baby acts cool but they all know something ain't right, ain't right
F Dm Bbsus2 Only acting this cool when he's walking with me.
F Bbsus2 1998 forever and a day
FI keep the pictures hanging where the world can see 'em.
I hope I die today
Bbsus2Save me from another late night of red eyes
F Bbsus2But then the morning comes
FYou were there looking for me but I
Dm Bbsus2I was gone, turned my back for a moment and
You had fallen apart
 
Verse 2
F Bbsus2 They've been promising the lights as we beg for our lives
FSelling pages of the times we've been waiting on
Bbsus2Now the weight's too much and I can't hold you anymore
F Bbsus2 How much of a cruel year can you call my fault?
FNot even the memories are immortal..
Dm Bbsus2Terrified on this side of a conversation
FA conversation we'll never come back from
Bbsus2I'll never live it down if I never get around it
F'Cause goddammit, I did it to myself in hindsight
Bbsus2I liked him 'cause his rule was, "Do whatever you like," and I tried, alright
FNow I'll wear these scars for life
Bbsus2I loved you when it hurt inside to
FBut in the low light
Dm Bbsus2You know I'd Do anything for you
 
 
Chorus
F Bbsus2 You know I'd Do anything for you
F Bbsus2 You know it's true, 'cause I've said it to you
F Bbsus2 Held in my arms, I swore I'd be good to you
F Dm Bbsus2F Then sat and watched as you walked away from me .
 
 
Verse 3
Yeah, you've changed
Bbsus2But did I ever know you
Or did I hold you
DmFacing away from me.
CThe air in your room never moves
Bbsus2 C Dm CLive and die by TV no one's watching .
Bbsus2 CDo you hate me?..
Dm CWhen this is over..
Bbsus2Maybe then we'll get some sleep
F Bbsus2 I've been picking names for our children
DmYou've been wondering how you're gonna feed them
C Bbsus2Love is not enough in this world.
C Dm C Bbsus2 CBut I still believe in Nebraska dreaming..
Dm CCause I'd rather die..
Bbsus2Than be anything but your girl
 
Verse 4
F I never meant to hurt you
Bbsus2But somehow, I knew I would
Will it be like this forever?
F I'd reach into your body
Bbsus2And fix you if I could
DmWill I feel like this forever?.
CAre you angry?
Bbsus2 CDo you hate me?..
Dm CDarling, time may forgive me
Bbsus2 FBut I won't .
 
 
Chorus
Bbsus2You know I'd Do anything for you
F Bbsus2 You know it's true, 'cause I've said it to you
Dm C Bbsus2 C Dm Held in my arms, I swore I'd be good to you
CThen sat and watched
Bbsus2As you walked away from me
F Bbsus2So I bled til I cried, til I felt I might die
FTo be known the way you should
Bbsus2Is to put yourself through hell
Dm C Bbsus2Still I waited and tried, til it killed me
CCause you're right
DI can wait if I want
CBut it'll never be good enough like I
Bbsus2Want to believe it is
