Verse 1
every morning I wake up discomposed
G
And I have to pull myself together
D
before I pull you into my arms
C
It's that moment of amnesia
where I forget the man I'm trying to be
G
C
that scared me most in
D
because it's a nightmare more constant than sometimes
C
that one time my arms will stretch out imperfectly
and like man's reach exceeding
G
they'll grasp nothing but
air it's these mornings
D
I think I can't be enough
C
G
D
to keep you here
C
After all, I'm a bag of tricks,
an illusion played
G
so constantly it sticks,
a little bit of showmanship
D
to convince us not to go looking
C
for the rabbit inside the hat,
but the fact is it's there,
G
it's huddled behind my eyes,
quivering nervous on my tongue,
D
it's afraid of everything
and everyone
C
because he's never done
anything like this before,
the me in my dream does not so much
G
the man you know more like
his idiot kid brother
D
who dresses up for Halloween each night
and he doesn't know how to write
C
really he just knows show -and -tell
he doesn't know how to fight
G
C
B
Bm
really he just takes punches well
C
so each morning I wake up and
stretch my amnesia
Em
hoping to forget the mounting evidence
that I've made promises
on bad credit,
D
overdrawn any account of my character,
C
that the hero I need you to see in me
is equal parts impulse buys and make -believe,
Em
and there's no room in the budget
D
for either when the payment comes due.
But however much I forget
it's never complete.
After all, a good liar needs
G
D
And as long as I'm wearing the threads,
these patchwork sheets
seem to cover me completely.
novels and bad TV,
giving me parts to play in stage direction.
A promise to be the mistake
C
you keep wanting to make.
The chance you keep trying to take.
I'm writing bedtime stories
so each morning I can rise.
G
D
Still wearing the cape
you made for me out of bed sheets.
C
Still willing to take more mountain roads
than easy streets
Still seeing in your eyes
when you wake up and smile
Em
That you're willing to play along
B
G
D
So I'm still makeshift,
I'm still guesswork
C
Em
G
But I'm still going strong
