G                    D   G
I wake up but I don’t go out

            D                  G
I sit and I sit and I lay back down

       Am
Will I be there for a long time?

G           D
And were my eyes only half way closed? 

      G
Did I see you in the doorway ?

D                             Am
Making sure I was sleeping so soft? 


And keeping so still

                 C 
And I never made a sound,

                   Am               C
But if you weren’t there to hold me down.

Em                        G
Loving you was never hard to do, 

            D                        C
But I’m sick and they’re coming to get me soon

        Em                     G
If they never bring me back to you, 

                     D
Will you tell me the truth? 


Will you tell me the truth? 

C                         G
Would someone tell me the truth?



D                         G
I walk around but I don’t breathe out

  D
I stumble like a child and I fall to the ground 

                      Am   Em
Will I be there for a long time?

     Am   D     Em
Will I be there for a long time?

C          D                       G
And did my thoughts only make me numb? 

                       D
Did I pretend to be normal,

                  C          Am 
Making sure I was keeping in line?

               Em 
And keeping so still

      C 
And I never made a sound,

       G                    Am 
But if you weren’t there to hold me down

Em                        G
Loving you was never hard to do,

            D                       C 
But I’m sick and they’re coming to get me soon 

        Em                     G
If they never bring me back to you,

                     D 
Will you tell me the truth? 

                     C
Will you tell me the truth? 

                                   G     Em
Would someone tell me the truth?

C                                  G     Em
Would someone tell me the truth?

C                                  G     Em
Would someone tell me the truth?

C                                  G     Em
Would someone tell me the truth?

                  C
I was sleeping so soft

 
And keeping so still 

                   D
And I never made a sound, 


But if you weren’t there to hold me down.

       Em
I'm in line

  
And keeping so still  

                   D
And I never made a sound

                            C
But if you weren't there to hold me down

G                         D
Loving you was never hard to do,

               Bm                   D 
But I’m sick and they’re coming to get me soon. 

                    G       C
If they never bring me back to you,

 
Will you tell me the truth? 

         G           D       C
Will you tell me the truth? 

    Am                             G
And holding on was all that I could do, 

          D                                C
But I’m sick and they’re is nothing here left for you. 

           Em                       G
And if you hear me from behind your pews 

                     D
Will you tell me the truth? 

                     C
Will you tell me the truth?

                          G
Would someone tell me the truth?
