[Verse 1]
Poor little [G]baby
Blood on her [Am]hand[C]
[Em]She said she's losing her mind[D][G]
She rolls her eyes
And speaks in [C]tongues[Em]
Said it gets better [C]with time
[G]She wraps her [C]head in [G]band[Em]ages
To keep the words in [C]her mouth
She prayed for [G]more[C]
[G]Than what's in [C]store[Em]
Then locked the door to her house
[G]Oh [C]it's me
I've been dead [D]for years
Let me [G]haunt you while [Em]I wake
[C]It's not the life I [D]chose to live
But it's [G]one I'll gladly [Em]take
[C]I never meant we were per[D]fect
Let me [G]count the ways we hate
Yes all [Em]I have to do is wait
I [C]guess all that I [Cm]have to do is [G]wait
[Em][G][Em][D][G][Em][C][Em][C][G]
Inside this house
The lights are [Em]dim
We count the cracks in [D]the paint[G]
I got a map she [C]colored [Em]coastlines
And all the people [D]to save[C]
[G]Out on [C]the[G] sidewalk
Wrapped in a [Em]sheet
She kissed the [G]hands that [Em]she passed[C]
She made her likeness
[G]Out of paper
And lit the end with [Em]a match[G]
[C]Oh it's me I've been dead [D]for years
Let me [G]haunt you while I [Em]wake
[C]It's not the life I [D]chose to live
But it's [G]one I'll gladly [Em]take
[C]I never meant we [D]were perfect
Let me [G]count the ways we [Em]hate
[G]I g[C]uess all that I h[Cm]ave to do is w[G]ait[Am][Em]

[Cm]
[G]Poor little baby caught in a nightmare
[Em]And she was losi[G]ng her m[Em]ind[D][G]
And on her deathbed
With her last breath
[Em]She said, "Well at l[G]east I tri[Em]ed"[G]
[C]Oh it's me I've [G]been dead [D]for years
Let me [G]haunt you while I [Em]wake
[C]It's not the life I [D]chose to live
But it's [G]one I'll gladly [Em]take
[C]I never meant we [D]were perfect
Let me [G]count the ways we [Em]hate
[D]I g[C]uess all I that h[Cm]ave
to do is [Em]wait[A]
I [C]guess all I [Cm]have to do is wait
