Clench My Teeth

C
I woke up last night,
Am
To the sound of your cries.
F                       G               C
After six different states I still wake up.


C
I woke up last night,
Am
As hard as I tried,
F               G                       C
After six different names your what comes out.


Am                  G         C
And in the morning, my face hurts
        Am                      G
From the way I clench my teeth,
                 C      G                Am
When your face comes creeping in.
F         G                        C
I tend to clench my teeth a lot.


C
You said that one night,
Am
"You know, as hard as you try,
        F                   G           C
You'll never pull the wool over my eyes."


C
So I said in the reply,
        Am                                                F
"You know, I've got some things to hide. It's true.
                G               C
But it's only with you that I hide so much."


Am                  G             C
And in the morning, my face hurts
        Am                      G
From the way I clench my teeth,
            C          G                 Am
With your legs around me tight
F         G                C
I tend to clench my teeth a lot.
F            G                   C
I tend to clench my teeth a lot.


        Am                   G                   C
But this morning you said that your legs hurt,
        Am                      G
Because when I clench my teeth
                        C               G                    Am
You squeeze them just to let me know you are there.
F               G                       C
You say I clench my teeth too much.


Am                      G
Just keep squeezing babe,
             C
Just don't give up.
