[Intro]
A
[Chorus 1]
A D
Why do you act so down?
Bm E
I said I do not have a clue.
A D
But it's bound to wear me out
Bm E
And it's got to weigh on you...
[Verse 1]
A
I said there's a whole lot of ways for us to weather the storm.
D
And if I had to choose babe I guess I'd rather be bored
Bm
but there's no reason to drag it through the dust.
E
Don't let it get between the two of us.
[Chorus 2]
A D
But I'd love to help you out.
Bm E
I wanna be right there for you.
A D
But in a mind so full of doubt.
Bm D
It makes supporting you so hard to do.
[Verse 2]
A
Alright, I said it's time to take a minute just to think of yourself.
D
It's gonna be a long road, instead of making it hell,
Bm
You might as well take a step to get you out of this rut.
E
And I will be right here, I wanna pick you up.
A
But I do think it's true, deep in the sadness of you,
D
That we can find a new directions that'll pull ya right through
Bm
But it's gonna take a little bit of work on your side.
E
So keep on running 'cause I'm right beside you.
[Chorus 3]
A D
Why do you block me out?
Bm E
When I mean the best for you.
A D
But if you cherish these break downs,
Bm E
I guess there's nothing left me to do.
[Verse 3]
A
And I know that I'm a hypocrite because I do it too.
D
But only for a little minute then I'm back in the room.
Bm
Making jokes about the stupid little fit that I had.
E
Sayin' sorry baby don't let me be sad.
A
But I'm gonna intervene, I'm gonna say what I mean,
D
I'm gonna take a little off you back and play as a team.
Bm
I'm gonna use the situation for a song I could write,
E
But the words are coming faster than my fingers can type.
[Chorus 4]
A D
But I do my best to say,
Bm E
All the perfect words to you.
A D
So we can just enjoy today!
Bm E
And let the past be on yesterday's news.
[Outro]
Bm E A A/G# Bm
Oh baby I just wanna pick you up 'cause I can't stand to see you cry
