[Verse]
G Em C D
Be my mirror; show me what I can change
G Em
Don't go, I know that you know
C D
Don't let me down softly
[Chorus]
G Em
Well, this all happened on a sunny day
Em
You still couldn't see it
C
when it was just a half an inch away
D
Staring you right in the face, I say,
D C G
"Why can't you just say what you mean?
Am C D
Why can't you say what you mean, baby?"
[Verse]
G Em C D
Shufflin' sideways
G Em
There's no way to get home
C D
You're so slippery, frozen, ice cold, alone
[Pre-chorus]
G Em
Now I see that your expression's changed
Em
Are you wishing you saved my place?
C
You're stranded on the ocean floor
D
Wonderin' what you could have said before
D C G
But why can't you just say what you mean?
Am C D
Why can't you say what you mean, baby?
[Break]
G Am
Well I've been workin' too many hours
Bm C
Only for your loose change
G Am
This place is messy 'n' complicated
Bm C
And it only gets you back out
Am
And I want out
D C G
Why can't you just say what you mean?
Am C D
Why can't you say what you mean?
Am C Am D G G G
Why can't you say what you mean, baby?
