Tether Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]You've got a way with words,
I can't shut the fuck up
[C]You've got a perfect smile,
I don't wear [Em]my retainer
You got all A's in school,
I barely graduated
[C]I think I'm doomed forever,
you think I'm gonna make it
[Em]You've got

[Verse 2]
it figured out,
I can't get it together
[G]I'll follow you around,
'cause I got nothing better
[C]You wanna leave this town,
I tell you you're my tether
You say that nothing's certain,
but I will love you [G]forever

[Verse 3]
[G]
Baby, let's run away,
we don't have to go far
[C]I'll search my couch for change,
you'll steal your parents car
[Em]I'll change my name to Clyde,
and you'll change yours to Bon[C]nie
We'll find new ways to get high,
like robbing banks for money
[G]You say you'll marry

[Verse 4]
[G]rich,
I stare down at the car[C]pet
I swear I'll die alone,
you say I'm acting selfish
[Em]Deep down we're both aware,
we were made for each [C]other
But I like to piss you off,
and you like to make [Em]me suffer

[Verse 5]
And if you asked [Em]I'd leave [C]you,
if it would make [G]you happy
I'll cut my hand, I'll never play another [D]note,
'cause I love you oh so [Em]badly
And I don't need tomor[C]row,
as long as I have [G]you today
I will be anyone that you want me [D]to be,
I'll rearrange my fiber to make [Em]you
[C]Stay
[G]Stay
[D]

[Verse 6]
[Am]I know you're friends all say,
we're no good for each [C]other
I think that they're all mad,
that they don't have a lover
[G]They'll tell you I'm so bad,
you'll say that's not [D]the real me
You don't know him like I do,
you don't know how he treats [G]me[Em]

[Verse 7]
[Em]And if you asked I'd l[C]eave you,
if it would make [G]you happy
I'll cut my hand, I'll never play another [D]note,
'cause I love you oh so [Em]badly
And I don't need tomor[C]row
as long as I have [G]you today
I will be anyone that you want me [D]to be,
I'll rearrange my fiber to make [Em]you
[C]Stay
[G]Stay
[D][G]
