Nothing To Give

E
You talked me to sleep last night
C#m                F#
I hadn't felt that sad in years
E
Your eyes like glass mistakes
C#m            F#
They moved me close to tears
G#m
You speak those favorite fables 
which I'm yet to live
F#
And casually confirm my fears
C#m                           G#m
That I've got nothing to give

F#                               
I wish I could say that I've got 
G#m         D#m
no regrets
F#                                
But saying that would be one more 
   G#m        D#m
to pile on my desk
Continues after the ad
F#                              
I wish I could say I've come to 
G#m             D#m
time like old
A                          C#m   
But as you said goodbye, I almost
        A
 died
C#m             F#
I almost died

E
I take it back, all of it
                      C#m          
Those names I called myself
 F#

E
The heroes of my childhood
      C#m                      F#
Like hardbacks on the shelf
G#m
I take it back those promises I made
 to everyone
F#m
I'm falling through a ribbon last
C#m                          G#m
Before I'd learned to run

F#                               
I wish I could say that I've got 
G#m        D#m
no regrets
F#                                
But saying that would be one more 
   G#m        D#m
to pile on my desk
F#                              
I wish I could say I've come to 
G#m            D#m
time like old
A                          C#m   
But as you said goodbye, I almost
       F#     A
 died
  C#m             F#      A
I almost died
  C#m              F#     A
I almost died
