(A minor) Are you frightened by the

My water (C major) massagers
The purest love I've ever known (G major)
(A minor) Why can't you be,
(C major) like when I was thirteen

Alone (G major)
Verse 5
She said, (A minor)

(A minor) Missing you (G major) and me
So while I'm alive (F major) (A minor) (F major) (A minor)
(C major) I will (G major) always be
Seeking (F major) you out, wondering about (C major)
How'd we go so far (A minor) down
And what's do (G major) wrong with you and me
Verse 10
(A minor) Why can't you be,
someone (C major) looking a little deeper into me
Like (G major) J.D. Sallenger,

Why do I (D major) challenge her
In all the surface ways (A minor) that you displease
Why (C major) can't you be a little more (G major) at ease

(A minor) Why can't you be,
like a (C major) hand rolled cigarette

(G major) This masochistic, (D major) self- pity of smoking

To leave me (G major)
Verse 13
(A minor) Why can't you be like a
(C major) candle I can snuff
You're still a dia (G major) mond
in the rough
And I swear to god (D major) I've had enough
(A minor) How can I (C major)
Call your bluff
