[Intro]
Bb G Eb Ebmaj7

[Verse]
Bb
 It’s getting late
                  G
And I’m thinking I’ll
 give up
           Eb
On all the things that
            Ebmaj7
 I can’t change
         Bb
Like you
Bb
 And I like you
            G
Even if you see
right through
           Eb
My crystal-clear body
          Ebmaj7
 and truth
         Bb
How sway

[Chorus]
Bb
 Won’t you cleave
        G
right through me
       Eb
Split open my blue
        Ebmaj7
chest and the rest
        Bb
Is up to you

[Verse]
Bb
 My heart is tired
                  G
From all the heartstrings
 you’ve unwired
      Eb
Cut a hole right through,
      Ebmaj7
 I’m getting to
            Bb
The point of no return
Bb
 Now I don’t know
       G
If you want me to stay or go
             Eb
Cause you're giving me
           Ebmaj7
signals and I’m fickle
     Bb
In my head

[Chorus]
Bb
Won’t you cleave
       G
right through me
       Eb
Split open my blue
        Ebmaj7
chest and the rest
        Bb
Is up to you

[Bridge]
  Eb          Ebmaj7
I want you to want me
  Bb
I want you to see
     Eb     Ebmaj7
That I can be
        Bb
The one

[Chorus]
Bb
 Won’t you cleave
        G
right through me
       Eb
Split open my blue
        Ebmaj7
 chest and the rest
        Bb
Is up to you

[Verse]
         Bb
And if I stay don’t
 screw me
        G
Out of god damn pity
        Eb
I don’t want it anyways,
     Ebmaj7
 I can’t erase
   Bb
My needs
          Bb
Even if I stay this way
I can’t deny all
     G
 the shades of gray
            Eb
That you’ve painted
everything
      Ebmaj7
 it’s in my brain
N.C.
I’m done.
