Your Back Porch

      D   G             B5  
It's 4am again and I'm falling 
     G              D          G
asleep with the headphones in
B5            G        D
 It shouldn't be like this.
             G                  
And it's so hard to act like I'm 
  B5    G
over this
                     D           
When everything you said tore my 
B5              G G G
heart out of my chest.

G        A5  B5  G        
 I just want to feel something 
         A5 B5
again.
G                A5 B5
 I'm not innocent, not in the least 
bit.
G                B5 A5
Selfish wishful thinking.
G                  A5     B5   
 And if this mess that I left 
G                A5 B5      G
in the southwest is in your head,
G                 A5   B5   G  
 Then I'm not the only one 
                B5 A5 B5 A5 G
digging up the dead.

     G                             
You swear you're a safe bet, but I 
 B5              A5
know that you're not
        G                          
And I think that's why I'm here and
  B5         A5       G
 you still think I'm wrong,
But there's nothing between you and 
B5
me
            A5                    G
Not anymore, not on your back porch
                     B5         
At 4am, I'm in this van hoping I 
     A5         G
won't see you again.
 D                       G    D

G           A5              
 Does your conscience keep you 
    B5
awake?
 Because one day all that you've 
felt in those bones will make them 
break.
 But now I know just how you see me,
 and I want you to know
 You won't grow out of selfish, 
you'll just find better ways to hide
 it.
(If you gave all that you take, the 
weight would take its toll and your 
skeleton would cave)
