BoyWithUke - Understand

[Chorus]
F#m
Girl, I hope you understand
D
I wanted to hold your hand
A C#7
But I can’t, wanted to be your man back then
F#m
And you knew I fell for you but you
D
Just broke my heart in two
A
I was sad, mad and broken on my bed
C#7
Hoping I get rid of all the voices in my head

[Verse 1-1]
F#m
I was opening a packet of an undeveloped med
D
When I was met with a prescription of a bullet made of lead
A
And when I woke up in an hour in a pool of my own sweat
C#7
I said, I swear to God I’ll never even try to sleep again
F#m
So instead I took my pen and started writing evidence
D
And when I started making sense
I found that I had reached the end
A
Oh, I’m upset, I have no friends
You wanna bet you’re just pretend?
C#7
You’re just a pet confined within the lines of writing
You’re not shit

[Verse 1-2]
F#m D
I thought I stopped my psychopathic ways, I swear I did
A C#m7 C#7
I said I talked to people ’bout the problematic life I lived
F#m
They were my neighbors, razor blades
D
And different flavored pills I hate
A
Therefore I’m not sure, leave my last straw
C#m7 C#7
I’m so glad, stuck in the past, I said that

[Chorus]
F#m
Girl, I hope you understand
D
I wanted to hold your hand
A C#m7 C#7
But I can’t, wanted to be your man back then
F#m
And so far I never held you with my arms
D
So it’s hard to be the one you aren’t
A
With instead filled with anxiety
C#m7 C#7
Always was a part of me, guess I’m not cut out to be

[Verse 2-1]
F#m
Somebody ’cause it’s not me
D
I’m not used to all the talk, it was an introvert
That had converted feelings in the writing
A
Used to cope with all my problems
Using notes and lots of rhyming
C#7
Used to hope for better days whenever
That’s ’bout make me crying
F#m
I’m not lying when I say that I would rather daily go back
D
To the times I would try be the guy the people know
A
I was fighting with the demons hiding far beyond my eyelids
C#7
On an island full of violence in my head that I could pilot

[Verse 2-2]
F#m D
Oh, the sun don’t shine, the skies turn gray
A
I’m feeling coursing through my veins
C#m7 C#7
I said before I’m not okay But you don’t lis
F#m
ten anyway
D
You know I tried, you turned away
A
Straight out loud right to my face
C#m7 C#7
You fucked my life, ruined my day But you don’t know,
so I’ll say

[Bridge]
F#m D
Nothing can fill this silence, no one can love like I did
A C#m7 C#7
Nobody cares, you lied, it’s no fair, you still deny it
F#m D
Nothing can fill this silence, no one can love like I did
A C#m7 C#7
Nobody cares, you lied, it’s no fair, you still deny it

[Chorus]
F#m
Girl, I hope you understand
D
I wanted to hold your hand
A C#7
But I can’t, wanted to be your man back then
F#m
And too bad I know I can’t wake up
D
Because I lost my weight and you don’t give a fuck
A C#m7
About me, this could be a dream, I can’t see
C#7
The things that you see, so please, oh
F#m
Girl, I hope you understand
D
I wanted to hold your hand
A C#7
But I can’t, wanted to be your man back then
F#m
And you know I’ll play along you
D
In my home I wrote you songs
A
And now you’re dead to me effectively
C#7
Removed yourself outside my dream
