GC
Open up your box of sunshine
GC
and smile as confetti comes raining down on you
GC
You feel a lot like the good guy, but do you know why
G
Everythingʼs so blue
GC
Well, love is fire and the coals are barely burning
GC
Cold fills the emptiness that fills this empty place
GC
I taught you the walk but then you ran away from me
and thatʼs not how itʼs supposed to be
Chorus:
GA#C
I, I collide with love as an elusive state of mind
GA#C
I know thereʼs something else itʼs supposed to be
GA#C
I, I collide with love as an elusive state of mind
G#D#
somethingʼs killing me
Verse:
GC
Tearful confessions have watered down and broken down
GC
the chance for unrequited love to finally reach its wall
GC
youʼre waiting for the ax to fall
Canʼt you see it lying on the ground?
GFFmC
You could be the best one at cleaning up this mess
C
Be the best one, be the best one, be the best one.
GC x3
