intro: A Eii D Db B
verse 1:
A D F# G
held back by walls of insecurity
A D
that i just could never see
F# G
held people at arms length
(same chords)
devoid of all human contact
cannot express emotion
i try with all my strength
chorus:
Db F#
what is the matter with me
D
it seems no one cares
A Eii
i'm blinded by my innocence
Db F#
will no one be there for me
D A A A Eii Eii
when i don't understand
i need a guiding hand
verse 2:
covered in blankets of immagination
where i can talk to people without a second thought
what if they're laughing at me
i know i'm not good enough so i won't even try
repeat chorus
repeat intro
repeat chorus (w/out lyrics)

ska break:
As Ds
everything's gonna be okay and i know
Es
but it just seem that way...
As Ds Es
right around the corner there may be someone who cares...
As Ds Es
everything's gonna be alright and i know, but i wish it was tonight
Es Ds Es
maybe i would sleep better at night if i knew someone cared
