Oh But Lover

G#m
We see it two different ways
B
My head has been in a daze
E
I haven't slept in a week
E                       G#m
I made a promise to you I can't keep
G#m
It's driving me to the edge
B
I walk myself to the ledge
E
I jump a thousand feet
E                     G#m
Just so I can finally get relief


[Pre-Chorus]
         G#m       B                    E
And the feeling of falling out of your love
                                     G#m
Has a dread I could've never dreamed of
       G#m               B                  E
And it haunts me just to think of what I've done
                                 E
In the light of everything we've become


[Chorus]
                        G#m         B                  E
I'm finally learning to love myself better than I have before
                                        G#m
And I know that means I'm breaking your heart
        B              E
Oh, but lover, we were broken from the start


[Verse 2]
G#m
I hope you look at her still
B
And feel the love that I felt
E                                                    G#m
I know that soon you will build your life again with someone else
      G#m             B                E
Is it selfish to keep wanting you this way?
                                G#m
I know I'm the only one here to blame
          G#m              B              E
You can't move on when I'm always in your way
                         G#m
And we both know I can't stay


[Chorus]
                        G#m         B                  E
I'm finally learning to love myself better than I have before
                                        G#m
And I know that means I'm breaking your heart
        B              E
Oh, but lover, we were broken from the start


[Bridge]
G#m*                    B*
Planning strikes in the same place
          B*                  G#m*        B*
We better run and hide before it finds us again
               E*               G#m*            B*
It's dangerous to think all the things we could have been
G#m*
Lover, that's a war we would never win


[Interlude]


[Verse 3]
      G#m             B                E
Is it selfish to keep wanting you this way?
                                G#m
I know I'm the only one here to blame
          G#m              B              E
You can't move on when I'm always in your way
                                    G#m
When I can't make up my mind either way


[Chorus]
                        G#m         B                  E
I'm finally learning to love myself better than I have before
                                        G#m
And I know that means I'm breaking your heart
        B              E
Oh, but lover, we were broken from the start

G#m B E E x2


[Outro]
G#m                             B              G#m B E E
I think I made a promise to you I can't keep
G#m                             B               E*
I think I made a promise to you I can't keep
