How else can I say I am not your hide-away, 

         Bb                 Bbm          F 
Get your face out from the crook in my arm. 

    C             Bb              F             A 
And not only just I can be what's keeping you alive, 

     Bb            Bbm                F 
If I slip up, if I fall asleep you're gone.  

    Dm  C     Bb       F 
And god knows I've tried, 

    Dm   C          Bb 
But I am god damned tired.

And I will build a fort around you, the bricks are drying in the sun, 

          Bbm         F 
Stay real still I'll soon be done.  

    C               Bb       F        A 
But I'm not strong enough to hold you up,

I've got a hole inside my gut and it's tearing me apart. 

          Bb          F            Bb          F

I am small the television's falling from the second floor,  

   Gm               Bb                     F 
My sister's hand in mine as we watch it go. 

Dm                                F  
Another scene with sirens in the front yard  

        Gm                Bb 
For the neighbors to read by the lights of.
