Cry For You

                   Gb/Bb   Ab/C
This thorn in my flesh
                         Bbm/F   Db/Ab
Is the only thing I got left
                       Gb/Bb   Ab/C
And it's so hard to confess
                               Bbm/F
When everybody thinks you're perfect


[Chorus]
               Gb/Bb   Ab/C
But I cry for you
                Bbm/F   Db/Ab
If you feel it too
                 Gb/Bb   Ab/C
And I'll cry for you
                    Bbm/F   Ab/C  Bbm/F   Ab/C Bbm/F
If it's so hard to lose
N.C.
The elephants in the room


[Verse 1]
Gb/Bb                              Ab/C
Take it away, I beg you, take it all away

The pain it causes, it makes me wish I could fade away
       Bbm/F
If they knew what you knew, they'd probably shun me
      Db/Ab
I'm surprised you know it all and you love me
          Ab/C
I know I break your heart
Gb/Bb
Body of death, give me rest if my heart stops
Ab/C
Then it don't hurt no more, can't get worse no more
Bbm/F
Can't pursue all these desires, it ain't cursed no more
Bbm/F
No more lies about my worth no more
Ab/C  Gb/Bb
I understand the thoughts of suicide that do reside
                     Ab/C
But when I stop and think about my family, I feel new inside
                   Bbm/F
I promised I would die a thousand deaths 'fore I cause them any pain
         Db/Ab
But somehow I end up killing everything
Ab/C     Gb/Bb
I cry for you
Gb/Bb                                                 Ab/C
If you feel a dark, twisted, heart-wrenching, hate-to-see-your-own-reflection
                                      Bbm/F                 Ab/C
Praying for an intervention, feeling guilt and feeling shame
Bbm/F                     Ab/C
I just call on Jesus name
Continues after the ad
Bbm/F
Praying daily, can you take away this pain?
N.C.
Take the thorn away
Gb/Bb
Still, it remains, I
N.C.
Feel the same, I
Ab/C
Know that I'm healed, but
N.C.
Still feel insane
Bbm/F
Satan would love to see my give up and throw up my hands
Db/Ab
He say I'm guilty but You say I'm clean


[Instrumental]

Gb/Bb, Ab/C, Bbm/F, Db/Ab


[Pre-Chorus]
                   Gb/Bb   Ab/C
This thorn in my flesh
                         Bbm/F   Db/Ab
Is the only thing I got left
                       Gb/Bb   Ab/C
And it's so hard to confess
                               Bbm/F
When everybody thinks you're perfect


[Chorus]
               Gb/Bb   Ab/C
But I cry for you
                Bbm/F   Db/Ab
If you feel it too
                 Gb/Bb   Ab/C
And I'll cry for you
                    Bbm/F   Ab/C  Bbm/F   Ab/C Bbm/F
If it's so hard to lose
N.C.
The elephants in the room


[Verse 2]
Gb/Bb
Sunday morning, or Sunday mourning?
Ab/C
I woke up dead inside from all the hurt I saw before me
Bbm/F
Evil tryna take away my testimony
Db/Ab
Starin' at my phone, feelin' like a phony
Gb/Bb
Oh, I cry for you, I would die for you
Ab/C
To escape the pain I feel from all that I've been through
Bbm/F
I feel it in my soul and in my chest
Bbm/F
Take away this ugly thorn inside my flesh
Ab/C    Gb/Bb
Give me death
Gb/Bb
But grace is sufficient to start my mission
Ab/C
I'm so far from perfect, can't believe they listen
Bbm/F
But hear a broken man 'til your healin' happens
Db/Ab
And hear a liar tell you truth to bring you gladness
Gb/Bb
I could never boast in my accomplishments
Ab/C
I can only hope in God with confidence
Bbm/F             Ab/C Bbm/F
Opposite of optimist, U and I are consonants
Ab/C Bbm/F
Broken all the vowels, deservin' of every consequence
Gb/Bb
Will you cry for me, or will you judge me?
Ab/C
Will you throw stones at my head, or will you love me?
Bbm/F
I could never be everything that you wanna see
Db/Ab                                                    Gb/Bb
But crooked sticks draw straight lines, just look at me
Ab/C                                               Bbm/F
(But crooked sticks draw straight lines, just look at me)


[Pre-Chorus]
                   Gb/Bb   Ab/C
This thorn in my flesh
                         Bbm/F   Db/Ab
Is the only thing I got left
                       Gb/Bb   Ab/C
And it's so hard to confess
                               Bbm/F
When everybody thinks you're perfect


[Chorus]
               Gb/Bb   Ab/C
But I cry for you
                Bbm/F   Db/Ab
If you feel it too
                 Gb/Bb   Ab/C
And I'll cry for you
                   Bbm/F   Ab/C  Bbm/F   Ab/C Bbm/F
If it's so hard to lose
N.C.
The elephants in the room
