Don't You Want to Share the Guilt? Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G]

[Verse 1]
[G]BBQ food is good
You invite me out to eat it, I should
Go, but I'm feeling kind of nervous
And not quite myself
So I'm running late on purpose
And I know this won't help
How things have become between us
But if I go you'll give me hell
And that I don't know how to fix it
Is making me unwell, well
I arrive at your [C]house
[G]But you've just got [C]up
[G]And you are wearing a towel
And your eyes look dark
I help to dry your [C]body
And I [G]see your [C]cut
So I [G]give you [C]a plaster
And we [G]cover it [C]up[G]
I say "Have you been [C]crying?"
[G]And you say "Shut Up[C]"
[G]So we sit in the garden
And touch the [C]grass
[G]With our hands

[Interlude 1]
[C][G][C][G]
[C][G][C]

[Verse 2]
[G]The sun is going [C]down now
And [G]it's been okay
You tell me all these things you did
While I was away
And this worries me somewhat
[C][G]

[Verse 3]
You say you're fine
[C]Listen
[G]Can you hear it?[C]
Does it [G]speak?[C][G][C]
Will [G]I feel [C]it?[G][C]
Will [G]it hurt?[C][G][C]
Am [G]I near [C]it?[G]
I don't know
[C][G]

[Verse 4]
I [C]don't know how more people haven't
got [G]mental health problems
[C]Thinking is one of those stress[G]ful
things I've ever come across
[C]And not being able to articulate wha[G]t
I want to say drives me crazy
[C]I think I s[G]hould try and read more books
And learn some [C]new words
My sister used [G]to read
the dictionary
[C]I'm going to start with that
I'd like [G]to travel
I want to see [C]India and the pyramids
[G]A whale and that race with all
[C]the bicycles in France
[G]I'm not sure about rivers, they [C]scare me
But I love swimming,
[G]I'm good at it
And when [C]I swim I think about numbers
[G]And count the[C] laps
When I was younger I saw
[G]a house burnt down
And [Am]I walked past it everyday
[C]for the next [G]six years
Derelict, [C]black,
chalky and dan[G]gerous
I wondered if squatters lived [C]there
I'm still not sure but [G]I know there were
never any parties cause it was [C]shit
After [G]a while the council got round
to [Am]tidying out the town
Making it less offensive
[G]here and there
They said it was an eyesore
[C]so they let tore it down
[G]Behind the house was a wall [C]with
a few bits of crappy [G]graffiti
and the word 'Cunt' written
on it in giant letters
[C]And now I walk past tha[G]t

[Verse 5]
I like sitting in the [Am]park
[C]And I like walking through it[G]
I like taking my dogs [C]there
And friends, and I like being alone
I like flowers and [G]simplicity
I like compassion and thoughtful gifts
[C]I like being able to shout
But I [G]wish I could be quiet
When I'm [C]quiet [G]people think I'm sad
And usually I am
[C]Sometimes when I'm

[Verse 6]
[G]at a
busy [C]train station
Somewhere big with [G]the
noisy trains like King's [C]Cross
I feel like putting down [G]my bags
and shouting thing[C]s out
because I've got something
[G]to [C]say[G][C]
[G]
[C]Don't you want to share
the [G]guilt?[C][G]
Don't think, just try [G]and sleep
