6 Am

C                  Am
 It's 6AM, I'm shivering beneath the bed sheets
Dm
The pillowcase fell off last night when I
  Fmaj7
 held it in my arms.
  C
 I read                     Am
Short stories, while you twitched in your sleep beside me,
Dm
your                        Fmaj7
Breath it fell so heavy, as I sat there in the dark
    Dm                              Fmaj7
And oh you whispered quiet, making friends beneath the
             C
Scenery of a sun cracked open sky beneath 
     Em 
the dark lids           Dm
Of your eyes. You were skipping stones and I was still alone
     Fmaj7
When I   turned off the light, scribbling 
       C
onto sticky notes
    G/Em
I am scared and that's the best that I can say
C                      Am
I work a job to pay the debt I owe my family,
Dm
 to pay back for
             Fmaj7                 C
That one time    I pushed your chin. All this hope I hold
      Am
 just buries                         Dm
Its evil in me out of sight, but it slips through a hole
                      Fmaj7        
In my side I've seen another of me and you

C                               Am
So we'll climb in that Buick down 222, and I'll
             Dm                
Close my eyes, the sun goes down each time
   Fmaj7
 I see the light
                  C
I swear it's true.    Because I've loved 
down with this crown watching
Am                              Dm
Old dogs age without whimpering, and I find it hard to say that
Fmaj7
I am strong

C                                 Am
But I'll be sure with each passing breath to read you
                           Dm
Stories that are glimmering   with the light that reflected    
                                (let ring)                                   Fmaj7
Off these marigolds that caught my neck when I hit
The ground

   Dm                              Fmaj7
And oh you whispered quiet, making friends beneath the
             C
Scenery of a sun cracked open sky beneath
     Em
 the dark lids
Of your eyes.
           Dm                      
 You were skipping stones and I was still alone
      Fmaj7
When I    turned off the light, scribbling
      C
 onto sticky notes
      Em
I am scared and that's the best that I can say

     (start quietly, then pick up towords the 3rd or 4th repetition 

C                  Am
All we are is all we are and still I will become,
Em
 all I am and all
   Fmaj7
I thought I can't recall because (X6)

Dm                                 Fmaj7
And oh you whispered quiet, making friends beneath the
             C
Scenery of a sun cracked open sky beneath 
    Em
the dark lids
Of your eyes.
         C              
 You were skipping stones and I was still alone
      Fmaj7
When I    turned off the light, scribbling
      C
 onto sticky notes
     Em
I am scared and that's the best that I can say

C                       Am
I'm still tugging on your hand, like when I was innocent
Fmaj7
We used to only lie when we needed sleep

(End on Fmaj7)
