Am                         
I'm sorry I wanted to be  
C/G                 Cmaj7/G                   Am/F Am/F  
So much better than this, but I don't think I can 
             C/G               C/B           Am/F Am/F                  
I say these words to keep your body close to my heart. 
              C/G              C/B             Am/F              
I know you're gone, but I still miss you all the time. 
          C/G              Cmaj7/G             Am/F 
I say I'm fine but I can't keep you from my mind. 

Verse 
Am            C/G             Cmaj7/G             C/B 
You knew the worst of me. You loved the things I hated in myself. 
Am                             C/G              
You saw my greatest fears. You sat with me those sixteen years, 
       Cmaj7/G                          C/B 
When I hated my self, and hated you for loving me all the same. Please look away. 
Am                             C/G                             Cmaj7/G              
But now, I've grown, and moved away from home; I keep my problems to myself, 
                             C/B                            
Because you taught me that strength wasn't building good support,  
Am                         C/G                                      Cmaj7/G     
But rather needing nothing of the sort. I keep steadfast in faith not to the world, 
                           C/B 
But to your voice drilling deep inside my head. 
Am                            C/G             
I've known the worst of this. I've cut off everyone, 
Cmaj7/G                      C/B 
Because you taught me that's how a man should be.
