verse
F
So scared of breaking it
E Am
That you won't let it bend
F
And I wrote two hundred letters
E Am
I will never send
F E Am
Sometimes these cuts are so much deeper than they seem
F
You'd rather cover up
E Am
I'd rather let them bleed
F
So let me be
E
And I'll set you free (Oh yeah)
Am Dm G C
I am in misery
Am Dm G C
There ain't nobody who can comfort me (Oh yeah)
Am Dm G C
Why won't you answer me?
Am Dm G C
The silence is slowly killing me (Oh yeah)
Am Dm
Girl, you really got me bad
G C
You really got me bad
Am Dm
I'm gonna get you back
G C
I'm gonna get you back
(same as verse 1)
Your salty skin and how
It mixes in with mine
The way it feels to be
Completely intertwined
F
Not that I didn't care
E
It's that I didn't know
F
It's not what I didn't feel,
E
It's what I didn't show
F
So let me be
E
And I'll set you free
Am Dm G C
I am in misery
Am Dm G C
There ain't nobody who can comfort me (Oh yeah)
Am Dm G C
Why won't you answer me?
Am Dm G C
The silence is slowly killing me (Oh yeah)
Am Dm
Girl, you really got me bad
G C
You really got me bad
Am Dm
I'm gonna get you back
G C
I'm gonna get you back
Bridge
F
You say your faith is shaken
E
And you may be mistaken
Am
To keep me wide awake
C
and waiting for the sun
F
I'm desperate and confused
E
So far away from you
C E
I'm getting there, I don't care where I have to run
Am Dm G C
Why do you do what you do to me, yeah?
Am Dm G C
Why won't you answer me, answer me, yeah?
Am Dm G C
Why do you do what you do to me, yeah?
Am Dm G C
Why won't you answer me, answer me, yeah?
Am Dm G C
I am in misery
Am Dm G C
There ain't nobody who can comfort me (Oh yeah)

Why won't you answer me?
Am Dm G C
The silence is slowly killing me (Oh yeah)
