CAPO on 2 with standard tuning
C Am
I can tell you've lived by the marks on your skin
F C
These are like the pages of a book
Am
The lines beside your eyes let me know that you have smiled
F C
A little more than I ever could
C
And I know that you can't sleep at night
Am
For the hollow bumps beneath your eyes
F C
Tell me more than stories ever could
C
You are not an etch-a-sketch
Am
These marks engraved upon your flesh
F C
Are indeed what makes me love you
G Am
And I want to
C
Read you like a book so
G
Let me take a look inside
Am
Your little head
F C
'Cause you don't need to be re - written
G
If you could only listen
Am
I would tell you this
F C
You don't need to be fixed
C
One thing that I know
Am
When a heart is always closed
F
No-one can get in
C
They just get out
C
So here I am stuck in between
Am
Won't you hold me close and see
F C
I will heal you if you show me how
G Am
And I want to
C
Read you like a book so
G
Let me take a look inside
Am
Your little head
F C
'Cause you don't need to be re - written
G
If you could only listen
Am
I would tell you this
F C
You don't need to be fixed
C Am
And I wish you would notice
F Am
I would never let you go (never let you go)
C Am
And I wish I could show you
F
It's okay to take it slow
C G
Read you like a book so
Let me take a look inside
Am
Your little head
F C
'Cause you don't need to be re - written
If you could only listen
G Am
I would tell you this
F C
You don't need to be fixed (2x)
