[G]

[Verse 1]
[G]Darling
don't you understand
I feel so ill at ease
The [C]room is full of silence and it's
getting hard to breathe
[G]Take this guilted cage of pain
and set me free
[C]Take this overcoat of shame
It never did be[Am]long to [Em]me[D]
It never did [G]belong to me

[Verse 2]
[G]
I need to go outside
I need to leave the smoke
'Cause [C]I can't go on living
in this same sick joke
It [G]seems our lives have taken on
a different kind of twist
[C]Now that you have given me
the perfect [Am]gift[Em][D]
You have given [G]me the gift

[Verse 3]
[G]
For we have fallen from
our [Bb]shelves[F]
To face the truth about [G]ourselves
And we have tumbled
from our [Bb]trees[F]
Tumbled from our trees
[G]

[Verse 4]
And I can [C]almost
I can almost hear the rain [G]falling
Don't you know it feels so [C]good[Am]
So let's go out into the rain [Em]again[D]
Just like we said we always
[G]
[D]would

[Outro 1]
