Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am][Em]
[F]I s[C]ee [G]the[Bdim]
[Am]past still hides in your closet
I see you can't [Em]move but you're
starting to process
So now I hope to [F]God that you're
making some progress
Guess I don't be[C]lieve but I'm
just being cau[G]tious

[Verse 2]
I see the [Am]guilt weighing heavy
on your conscious
I see that all the [Em]pain isn't gone,
it's a constant
I hope that you can [F]step back
and put it in context
'Cause that [C]man, he belongs in a coffin
[G]I hope one

[Verse 3]
[Am]day that you'll see
Everything I [Em]did was for
you and me
Everything I [F]did was for you to see,
you [C]to see
[G]I hope one day[Am],
that you'll believe
Everything I [Em]have, yeah, you gave to me
I'm everything I [F]am 'cause you made me,

[Verse 4]
you made me
[C]I w[E]ish[Am] I had a verse
with some better word[Em]s
Wish I had a hope that you've
never [F]heard
Wish one day that you wouldn't hurt
[C]'Cause mam[G]a, you give me the wor[Am]ld
I wish I had a way with some
better rhymes
[Em]But I still can't say what I can't find[F]
I wish one day that you wouldn't cry
[C]'Cause mama,
[G]you kept me [G#dim]alive[Am]
Whatever you need, [Em]I promise I'll tr[F]y
I promise I'll [C]try 'cause [E]mama

[Verse 5]
I know it [Am]all comes up when we're talking
I [C]know you're tryin' to [Em]save me
the pain that it's causing
I never see you [F]crying,
now I hear that it's pouring
So, let me be the [C]roof while you
pull up the floor[G]ing
I know it's not [Am]meant to be
something you're forcing
But I wish that you could [Em]force a little more,
it's important
'Cause now it's your [F]time and you're
turn to be open
And everything you [C]kept in a box,
you can throw [E]it

[Verse 6]
I hope one [Am]day that you'll see
Everything I [Em]did was for
you and me
Everything I [F]did was for you to see,
you [C]to see
[G]And I hope one day[Am],
that you'll believe
Everything I [Em]have,
yeah, you gave to me
I'm everything I [F]am 'cause you made me,
you made me
[C][G]

[Verse 7]
[Am]
I wish I had a verse with some
better word[Em]s
Wish I had a hope that you've
never [F]heard
Wish one day that you wouldn't hurt
[C]'Cause mam[G]a, you give me the wor[Am]ld
I wish I had a way with some
better rhymes
[Em]But I still can't say what I
can't [F]find
I wish one day that you wouldn't cry
[C]'Cause, mam[G]a, you kept me ali[Am]ve
Whatever [Em]you need, I promise I'll [F]try
I promise I'll [C]try 'cause mama
[G]You kept me [Am]alive[Em]
[F]
[C]'Cause mam[E]a, you kept me alive
