A – C# - A – B x2
[Verse 1]
A C#
Tossed around like sea glass and You rounded out my edges.

I'll feel better when the headaches go away.

I got a scar across my forehead, turning purple in the cold

From a night at Shore Memorial.

I was 16 and afraid.

Turned away, like I'm working baby face
E9 C# A
Out of Mid-South in the 80's.
B
I kept a blade hidden in my wrist tape.
[Chorus]
E A
I think I'm growing into someone You could trust.

I want to shoulder the weight until my back breaks,

I want to run until my lungs give up.

If I could manage not to fuck this up.

A C#
Hidden in the tall grass in the naked light of day,
A
I put my past-self in the ground.
B
I've been dancing on the grave.

I'm not the person that I was then,
C#
I'm tearing him away.
A
I was bitter. I was careless.
B
I was 19 and afraid
[Bridge 1]

But You deserved more from me.

I think I'm growing into someone You could trust.

[Bridge 2]
(Palm muted) C#
You left me walking in circles.
A
You were a shot in the dark.
B
You were the baby teeth I buried.
A
You were the sounds of distant cars.
(End palm muted) C#
You left me walking in circles.
A
You were a shot in the dark.
B
You were the banner that says "No One"
A
That I tattooed across my heart.
C#
You left me walking in circles.
A
You were a shot in the dark.
B
You're scattered like ashes across every song that I write.
A
You're where the light pollution starts.
[Chorus]

I think I'm growing into someone You could trust.
