The Beths - I Want To Listen

[Verse 1]
A Amaj7 A7 F#7
I rest my case in a bed unmade
Bm
The headboard strained
E Bm Bb A
Under the weight of my memory of the day
Amaj7
So crammed
A7 F#7
Getting low on RAM
Bm
Getting high on strife
Bm
Stock is overflowing
Dm
Do you wish that you could throw it in?

[Chorus]
F#m F
Why
A B
Do you like
E
To be mine?

[Verse 2]
A Amaj7
‘Cause I’m late again
A7 F#7
To realising
Bm
The spiral turns
E
So steadily down
Bm Bb
There’s no getting out
A Amaj7
Unless you quit
A7 F#7
Zoom out a bit
Bm
Uncross your eyes
Bm
It ruins the illusion
Dm
But it’s well worth the losing

[Chorus]
F#m F
Why
A B
Do you like
E
To still try?

[Instrumental]
E E E E
E E E E

[Verse 3]
A Amaj7
My love, my dear
A7 F#7
It’s been quite a year
Bm
It’s been quiet and loud
E
Laughter and tears
Bm Bb
Courage and fear
A Amaj7
But I can’t allow
A7 F#7
This furrowed brow
Bm
And these borrowed blues
E Bm Bb
To keep washing out the delicate sounds
A Amaj7 A7 F#7 Bm
Of you

[Outro]
Bm Dm A
So if you want to whisper I swear I want to listen
