Abraham Mackey - Pent Up Inside My Brain

      [Intro]
F  C (3x) G C

{Verse 1]
C
​If I could open my heart to you
        G                C
I could more than say it all

It would pour out from within me
        G                C
Like a blowing trumpet’s call

But I’ve come too far down this road
        G            C
And settled it so it stays

Right where it supposed to be
        G              C
For all our nights and days

[Chorus 1]
        F               C
I’ve been storing up the words
        F               C
Like a dam collects the rain
        F       C
It feels like a torrent
        E7        Am
Pent up inside my brain
        F         C
Pent up inside my brain

[Instrumental]
F   C  (3X)  G  C

[Verse 2]
C
Yet you never leave or go away
        G               C
You just stay locked up tight

And I’ve lost the combination
        G               C
And I just can’t get it right

[Chorus 2]
        F           C
I just can’t get it right
        F           C
I just can’t get it right
        F          C
I’ve lost the combination
        E7             Am
And I just can’t get it right
        F           C
I just can’t get it right

[Instrumental]
F   C  (3X)  G  C

{Bridge]
     Dm             Am
I've got to open my heart to you
   Dm              Am
So you can hear it all
        Dm              Am
But I’m holding back my tongue
       E7               Am
Lest I cause us both to fall
     Dm              Am
But something has to give real soon
     Dm                 Am
It’s more than I can contain
        Dm          Am
And it feels like a torrent
     E7           Am
Pent up inside my brain
        F         C
Pent up inside my brain

[Instrumental]
F   C  (3X)  G  C

[Verse 3]
C
So I say to you one more time
        G            C
I hope you know it’s true

I long to touch you once again
        G                C
So I’ll open my heart to you

[Chorus 3]
        F             C
I’ll open my heart to you my love
        F            C
I hope you know it’s true
        F           C
I long to touch you once again
        E7               Am
So I’ll open my heart to you
        F             C
I’ll open my heart to you
        F           C
I long to touch you once again
        E7              Am
So I’ll open my heart to you
        F             C
I’ll open my heart to you
