[Verse 1]
G
How I don't know how to sing
I can barely play this thing
D
But you never seem to mind
And you tell me to fuck off
C
When I need somebody to
How you make me laugh so hard
G
How whole years refuse to stay
Where we told them to, bad dog
D
Locked up whining in a word
Or a misplaced souvenier
C
How the past chews on your shoes
G
And these memories lick my ear
[Chorus]
D
I know
Bm C G
You might roll your eyes at this
D
But I'm so
Bm C
Glad that you exist
[Verse 2]
G
How we waste our precious time
Marching in the picket line
D
That surround those striking hearts
And the time is never now
C
And we know who we should love
G
But we're never certain how
[Chorus]
D
I know
Bm C G
You might roll your eyes at this
D
But I'm so
Bm C
Glad that you exist
[Bridge]
G
[Chorus] (x2)

But I'm so

Glad that you exist
