[Intro]
Gm7   Gm7  Dm7  Fmaj7sus2

[Verse 1]
  Gm7
Tryna paint a picture of
the sun with all its flowers
 Gm7
Reachin' closer past the surface

Like I'm slowly gettin'
                Dm7  Fmaj7sus2
 closer to you
 Gm7
Livin' with uncertainty
like nothin'
 really matters
            Gm7
Passed the future on
 my way to work
And found myself back in
           Dm7    Fmaj7sus2
 bed with you

[Pre-Chorus]
                  Gm7
Give it all some time,
 paralyzed in motion
                  Dm7  Fmaj7sus2
Give it all some time
                  Gm7
I've been in the dark,
 paralyzed in motion
               Dm7  Fmaj7sus2
Lost in wintertime
[Chorus]
Gm7                C
 Did I do it to myself?
                  Am7
Hard to know for sure
                    Dm7
Did I hurt somebody else?
 'Cause you're the one thing
 Gm7
Nothing really matters,
but it matters if it
              C
matters to you
                       Am7
It's hard to know for sure
                     Dm7
But I believe you're always
           Gm7
in my corner
                   C
I did it to myself, I did
it to you

[Instrument]
 Gm7  Gm7  Dm7  Fmaj7sus2

[Verse 2]
Gm7
I can be enchanted by
the simple things

I watch the way the fire's burnin'
 all my letters, all the
                    Dm7 Fmaj7sus2
words I try to forget
 Gm7
Leavin' you was certainly
the hardest part of all
But I was livin' like a servant
 to a secret I was tryna protect,
Dm7    Fmaj7sus2
        hmm
