Turtles All The Way Down

           B
i'm not well

as you can tell
G#m             C#                
by the way i haven't looked you in
 B      E
 the eye
Em
and i'm about to lie

               B
and say i'm fine
  Bmaj7  B7                       
but inside, you and i know that's 
    E
not true
D#                      D#7 
but it's either this or let my 
           E
burdens weigh on you
         Em
and that i just can't do

[Chorus]
B
so i'll choose for the both of us

and you'll just go along because
      E
you've trusted me for no good reason
Em
here i am committing treason

B
i'll force the last page of our 
story
         B7
one more boring allegory
  E
i hope to god you'll rise above me
Em
i always bite the hand that loves me
                G                 
and mine, mine is the "unkindest, 
B
kindest cut of all"
E                   Em
i'll watch you fall

[Verse 2]
           B
and i'm aware

that it's not fair
G#m                     D#       
to bring you here, then send you 
       B     E
on your way
          Em
you had so much to say

B
and to ask
                   B7         E
like "why am i not cut out for the 
task
D#7                               
of loving you forever, of holding 
                   E
you and never wanting less?"
     Em
i can take a guess;

[Chorus]
             B
see, i could choose for the both of 
us
and you'd just go along because
       E
you're trusting me for no good 
reason
Em
you love no matter what the season

B
and i'd force the ending of our 
story
          B7
you're my favourite allegory
     E
then hope to god that you'll forgive
 me
Em
my mistakes will long outlive me
      G#m          G              
and mine, mine is the "unkindest, 
  B
kindest cut of all"
    E              Em
i'll watch us fall

[Bridge]
       F#
and i don't know if this makes it 
any easier
G#m                      G       
perhaps you'll find some comfort 
      B     F7
when i say
E                             
you and i are nothing more than 
       F#7
meteors
G#m            G           B     
never meant to live long past 
  F#7
today

E   Em
Mmm mmmm

[Chorus]
         B
so i'll choose for the both of us

and you'll just go along because
       E
you've trusted me against your 
judgement
   Em
you deserve someone who doesn't

B
force the last page of your story

no more boring allegories
 E
hope to god you'll rise above me
    Em                          G#m
though you'll always be part of me
      G                      
mine, mine is the "unkindest, 
 B
kindest cut of all"
    F7             E
i'll watch you fall
                Em
now watch me fall
