The Jail That Sets You Free

Em
Lately I've been picking at the fossil in my throat
It's hard to stare into the ocean
and to try to stay afloat
    C                               Am
Now don't upset yourself due to the changing of my mood
            Em
I'm hard to please sometimes
I'm hard to please sometimes

Em
I'm on a staircase to the bottom of the bottom of my soul
Although my feet are still connected
They are out of my control
    C                            Am
Now please refrain yourself from worrying on my behalf
                        Em
I'm hard to understand sometimes
I'm hard to understand sometimes

G
Honey come with me
Em
It's just you and me
G
Baby believe it's
Em
As simple as can be

I will be the jail that sets you free
D                               Em

Em
I'm shuffling underneath my pillow for the bed-crumbs of my mind
It's hard to look there for a future
when I left it all behind
    C                                     Am
And please don't condescend and say you've heard this one before
            Em
I'm hard to please sometimes
I'm hard to please sometimes

Em
And while you're offering a handshake to a goddamn amputee
I feel my phantom heart is scratching in a train-wreck memory
    C                                   Am
And please don't try to cure me with on rectifying glance
            Em
I'm hard to understand sometimes
I'm hard to understand sometimes
