It's Been Awhile

[Intro]
Gm A# F C 2x


[Verse]
Gm              
  It’s been
  A#             F
awhile since I could
C               Gm
hold my head up high
                A#      
  It’s been awhile
         F       C  Gm
since I first saw you
               A#             
  It’s been awhile since
   F           C
I could stand on my own
          Gm
two feet again
                A#      
  It’s been awhile
         F        C  Gm
since I could call you


[Chorus]
Gm       A#               F     C  Gm
And everything I can't remember
             A#             F   C  Gm
As fucked up as it all may seem
         A#       
  The consequences
           F       C  Gm
that I've rendered
              A#              F    C  Gm
I stretched myself beyond my means


[Verse]
Gm              A#      
  It’s been awhile
            F
since I couldn't say
       C                 Gm
that I wasn't addicted
                A#      
  It’s been awhile
            F
since I couldn't say
         C                Gm
I love myself as well as
                A#            
  It’s been awhile since
         F
I've gone and fucked things up
     C                Gm
just like I always do
                A#             F 
  It’s been awhile but all
                 C
that shit seems to disappear
                   Gm
when I’m with you


[Chorus]
(Gm)     A#               F     C  Gm
And everything I can't remember
             A#             F   C  Gm
As fucked up as it all may seem
         A#       
  The consequences
           F       C  Gm
that I've rendered
Gm            A#            
  I’ve gone and fucked
     F          C
things up again, yeah


[Bridge]
F  C  Gm                     F  C  Gm
        Why must I feel this way
                   F  C  Gm
Just make this go away
                       F   C  Gm~
Just one more peaceful day


[Verse]
Gm              
  It’s been
  A#             F
awhile since I could
C              Gm
look at myself straight
                A#      
  It’s been awhile
           F     C   Gm
since I said im sorry
                A#
It’s been awhile since
              F   C     
  I’ve seen the way
              Gm
candles light your face
                A#      
  It’s been awhile
     F
but I can still remember
C                Gm
just the way you taste


[Chorus]
Gm         A#             F     C  Gm
And everything I can't remember
Gm           A#             
  As fucked up as it all may
  F       C              Gm
seem to be I know it’s me
Gm       A#                F     C  Gm
I cannot blame this on my father
Gm         A#                 F  C  Gm
He did the best he could for me


[Outro]
Gm              
  It’s been
  A#             F
awhile since I could
C               Gm
hold my head up high
Gm              A#            
  It’s been awhile since
      F~
I said I’m sorry
