[Intro]

Em           D          G
Em           D          G


[Verse 1]

Em       D           G                            C
We were kids playing house in the backyard of my brain.
                            D
You pushed me up against the sink and kissed me.
Em                D                   G                 C
Reality called, “Time for dinner”. I raced you to the door.
               D                       C        
Shattered my eyes and soul on your way out
                                C
Shattered my eyes and soul on your way out
 

[Chorus] (Bass in)

D       C            G
Oh my dear this is tearing me in two
         D                   C                               G
And the smaller half is the one that wants you          (I’m sorry, but it’s true)
     D                          G                            
Now ceilings are carpeted, I’m spinning so confused
 D                                   Em
      All of my heart loves you,
N.C.
but I’ve got a head too.


[Interlude]

Em           D          G                               
Em           D          G                               


[Verse 2]

Em        D         G                    C
We were kids saying we’d figure it out someday
                D
I crossed my fingers, You prayed “Someday come quickly”
Em         D          G                          C
Took our picture in color, painted it black and grey
           D                   C      
Train my brain to think it’s been a while                 (BUILD)
       D                      C
Time heals they said so it’s been a while
            D    ring out                       (bassnotes: D A# G)
Avoid the grief believe it’s been a while
                                   (bassnotes: D A# G)
(I can’t mourn anymore.)                 


[Chorus]

D       C            G
Oh my dear this is tearing me in two
         D                   C                               G
And the smaller half is the one that wants you          (I hate myself, but it’s true, it’s true )
     D                          G                            
Now ceilings are carpeted, I’m spinning so confused
 D                                   Em
      All of my heart loves you,
N.C.
but I’ve got a head too.


[Outro]

D        C
D        C  *pause*             
   D      C                    (bassnotes: D A# G)
      If home is where the heart is
   D      C                   (bassnotes: D A# G) 
      Consider this girl homeless
   D      C                    (bassnotes: D A# G)
      If home is where the heart is
   D      C                   (bassnotes: D A# G) 
      Consider this girl homeless
 
(bassnotes: D A# G A# G) (bassnotes: D A# G) (bassnotes: D A# G)
