[Bb] You twiddle your thumbs when you're all [F] alone
[Gm] There's a touch of frost on your heart, uh-oh
[Eb] You [Bb] whistle it out, but the tune [F] don't go
[Gm] A snowflake love causing hailstorms
[Eb] I've been [Bb] where you've been, holding yourself
[F] To a sinking stone, pulling you [Gm] down
But you can't let go, people around
But you're all [Eb] alone, I know [Bb] how it hurts you
Yes, [F] I do
I've been stuck [Gm] in that same size shoe
I see life's tight [Eb] for you
[Bb] Hate seeing you sad, got a trickle down your [F] cheek
Take my hand, let it trickle down [Gm] me
Instead, just call me the confidant
[Eb]
[Bb] Got more than a tickle on your [F] feet
Got a heavy weight, not a pebble in your [Gm] sneakers
Call me up, I'm the confidant
[Eb]
[Bb] Rhythm's there, need a riddle to your [F] beat
You can write it out, you can scribble on [Gm] me
You can use me up, I'm the confidant
[Eb]
[Bb] But when the bad times have come
Nibble in your [F] heels, you can sound it out
Be a ripple in my [Gm] ear, just call me up, I'm the confidant
[Bb] A pickle you're in, and you can't get [F] out
[Gm] You stick with it all, but you keep it down
[Eb] You [Bb] nibble away at your thoughts, they [F] drown
You [Gm] put them to bed, but they loop back round
[Eb] I've been [Bb] where you've been, holding yourself
[F] To a sinking stone, I'm pulling you [Gm] down
But you can't let go, people around
But you're all [Eb] alone, I know [Bb] how it hurts you
Yes, I [F] do
I've been stuck [Gm] in that same size shoe
I see life's tight for [Eb] you
[Bb] Hate seeing you sad, got a trickle down your [F] cheek
Take my hand, let it trickle down [Gm] me
Instead, just call me the confidant
[Eb]
[Bb] Got more than a tickle on your [F] feet
Got a heavy weight, not a pebble in your [Gm] sneakers
Call me up, I'm the confidant
You can call [Eb] me up
[Bb] Rhythm there, need a riddle to your [F] beat
You can write it out, you can scribble on me
[Gm] You can use me up, I'm the confidant
But [Eb]
[Bb] when the bad times have come
Nibble in your heels, [F] you can sound it out
Be a ripple in my ear, [Gm] just call me up, I'm the confidant
[Eb]
[F] When youth departs, will wisdom hold?
[Gm] Looking [Eb] for the answer inside your soul
[Gm] Don't [F] be kamikaze and I'll keep it [Bb] cool
We can babble it out [Eb] till the sun goes down
We'll get there, yeah, long as it takes to your frown turn to [Bb] drown
Hate seeing you sad, got a trickle down your [F] cheek
Take my hand, let it trickle down [Gm] me
Instead, just call me the confidant
