The Beths - Just Shy Of Sure

[Intro]
D Dmaj7 G D Dmaj7 G

[Verse 1]
D Dmaj7 D
Love in memory
D
Was a plague that consumed me
G
Shifted all my priorities
Dmaj7 D
Things I’d die to keep
D
Swept through all that I hoped to reap
G
God, I loved how it ruined me

[Interlude]
D Dmaj7 G D F#m G

[Verse 2]
D Dmaj7 D
I have kept the hurt buried deep into winter dirt
G
I watch at night when the mound stirs
D Dmaj7 D
This is not the burn I’ve known
D
It’s an ache in my every bone
G
Maybe you want to be alone
Gmaj7
Maybe I

[Chorus]
Gmaj7
My head is aching
D A
But if I keep very still
G Gmaj7
I might be able
D E
To make this work until
G
The end of the weekend
Gmaj7
Weak, but I’ll pretend
D
That you still want me
A E G
I’m the one you adore
D Dmaj7 G
But I’m just shy of sure
G
(I’m just shy of sure)

[Verse 3]
D Dmaj7 D
When do things suffice?
D
Can you be happy all your life?
G
Do you think it can happen twice?
D Dmaj7 D
Maybe that’s a swing
G A
Hey, you can’t win without entering
G
Are you cool to lose everything?
Gmaj7
Roll the dice

[Chorus]
Gmaj7
My head is aching
D A
But if I keep very still
G Gmaj7
I might be able
D E
To make this work until
G
The end of the weekend
Gmaj7
Weak, but I’ll pretend
D
That you still want me
A E G
I’m the one you adore
D
But I’m just shy of sure

[Interlude]
D A D G

[Chorus]
Gmaj7
My head is aching
D A
But if I keep very still
G Gmaj7
I might be able
D E
To make this work until
G
The end of the weekend
Gmaj7
Weak, but I’ll pretend
D
That you still want me
A E G
I’m the one you adore
D Dmaj7 G
But I’m just shy of sure
D Dmaj7 G
(I’m just shy of sure)
