A Brighter Shade Of Blue

G C G C G G Like flowers at your mother's wedding C The brighter shade of blue G C I'm clutching to the way I felt about you G Before the bags under my eyes C From tossing in my bed at night G Am C Now I know I never really loved you Instr Strumming G C G C G C Your parents tied a knot just like the one that's in my chest G C The home they built is broken from the silence G You hold the past over your head C Drowning in your self regret G Am C I'll never be enough for what you wanted G D C I'll never know what's good for me G D -- So go ahead, tear me down G 'Cause I am weaker than I seem D G Am Yeah it's cool 'cause I can smile and pretend G That you're not wasting space in my head G C The record keeps on skipping all the songs you love the most G C You're everything I hate about the east coast G C You always said that I would be a warmth that you could hold G Am C You are only just a blanket that always left my feet cold Em D C G I'll never know what's good for me Em D So go ahead, tear me down G C 'Cause I am weaker than I seem Em D C G Yeah it's cool 'cause I can smile and pretend Am Em C That you're not wasting space in my head Am G D Now I'm shaking, you're drying in the breEEeze Am C G I've been trying to wash the memories out of our sheets Instr Strumming G C G D C Em D C G I'll never know what's good for me Em D So go ahead, tear me down G C 'Cause I am weaker than I seem Em D C G Yeah it's cool 'cause I can smile and pretend Am Em C That you're not wasting space in my head Am Em C You're not a waste of space to me G Like flowers at your father's wedding C The brightest shade of blue G C I'm questioning the way I feel about you
