Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

I can always pick up books

in the search of what I need

but that doesn’t help me any

if you’re impossible to read

so if you love me, if you love me

come clean

these monsters in my closet

are watching over me

the days are getting shorter

and at night it’s hard to sleep

the combination of all of this

is the death of everything

so if you love me, if you love me

hurry

because I don’t think that wasting

a second of this time

would benefit the outcome

of the life I had in mind

I’ll refer to you as my special love

the one that set me free

so if you love me, if you love me

come clean

waiting around until things grow old

I’m feeling lost in towns that were my home

and if everything was easier before

then we’ll go back to who we were

so I’m picking up a book

in the search of what I need

from religion, to fiction

being lost about at sea

and all I can imagine

is being brushed against your cheek

so if you love me, if you love me

come clean
