Intro:  Am Em G Am

Am                 Em
If I could crawl inside of you
G                   Am
Iʼm laughing with a broken face
Am                 Em
I stumble across my self esteem
G                                        Am
But to picture the pleasure is making me want my space
C
Understand ...
C                Am
that God wrapped like a bow
C
But in my head ...
C
Thereʼs some shelves that need cleaning from basement to ceiling
Am
control

If what youʼre seeing is an open book
thatʼs great well Iʼm an open book, but iʼm real shy.
Thereʼs a part of me seeking and desperately needing to open up.
Thatʼs strange ʼcause iʼm an open book, a confused boy.

Chorus:
Am
Iʼm an automatic steeple for depressed and lonely people
Em
my heart while in itʼs cage, is used to giving and not recieve a thing
G
but the only funny thing, is that i donʼt know how to give myself
Am
Advice.
Am
Iʼve got this post traumatic thing Iʼve got this tatoo of a ring that lies
Em
Around my wedding finger, thatʼs where Iʼd like to state this claim
G
that i gotta learn to live and dream before I go and get myself
Am
In love

C
In love ... before, before, before I go and get myself
Am
in love.

Am
Thereʼs Zoloft, Wellbutrin, thereʼs Paxil thatʼs groovinʼ
Em
no side effects.
G
But the rest left unnamed ʼcause they worked like a charm
Am
on me.

Am
but when your savings is drying you canʼt stop from crying
Em
You gotta suck it up.
G
youʼre not her buttercup, youʼr not her
Am
Favorite book.

Chorus.
