[Intro]
F#m  A  E  B  2x


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


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


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


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


[Bridge]
E  B  F#m                     E  B  F#m
        Why must I feel this way
                   E  B  F#m
Just make this go away
                       E   B  F#m~
Just one more peaceful day


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


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


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