Against the Kitchen Floor Chords by Will Wood

[G] [Am] .
[C] [D] .
I don't owe [G] you my heart, and I don't owe you [Am] my body, .
But you should know that I'm [D] sorry, for being [F#] careless [G] with you.
.
[D] Lord knows I own [G] you more, than I'm pretty sure I ever [Am] could give anybody, .
But I can't pin down what normal [D] people looking for in objects, bottom shelf, erotic [G] products like me.
So, [Am] I could hold your hand, but keep [D] you at arm's length,.
Or [Bm] hang me from a branch too high [Em] to climb and shake.
[Am] Less rare than stairs, less diamond than rough,.
[D] Unlikely to be more than just the core you fail to crush, and.
[G] I .
[C] swear, I'm really [G] trying.
.
Got it [Am] together, we'll know and do better,.
It just don't [D] come that true to me to think that you'd want me for [G] me.
.
[C] I swear, I'm really [G] trying.
.
Oh, [Am] I'm sorry, I promise I'm doing my best,.
I [D] just haven't learned how to be human [G] as you are yet.
.
[Am] [C] .
[D] [A] [D] I still don't know who [G] you are, I only know that I'm [Am] still lonely.
That morbid sword where [D] even company can't cure me,.
And the more you reassure, the less [G] I trust.
But still you gave me your heart, I only gave you [Am] my body.
Honestly thought [D] nobody'd want it, let alone notice it's gone, and so I left it [G] home.
But now, now, now, now,.
I [Am] keep it all here with a picture [D] on the back of my [Bm] head,.
Oh, monkey wrench beside a few [Em] mirrors, cause to my friends,.
I've [Am] lived more lives than enough, I [Am] haven't died quite as much,.
But [D] I'm not a real person, just the shit you can't make up, and.
[G] .
[C] I swear, I'm [G] really trying.
I'm just [Am] as exposed if I take off my clothes,.
When we make the [D] closest thing to love that I'm capable of,.
[G] And [E] I, [G] I don't know why [C] you'd care, but I'm [G] really trying.
Oh, [Am] I'm sorry, I promise I'm doing my best,.
I [D] just haven't learned how to be human as you [G] are yet.
[Am] .
[C] [D] .
[G] [Am] .
[C] [D] .
[G] [D] Did I [C] [G] really?.
[Am] Gravity, that gravity [D] made me all quicksand,.
[Bm] Because I really couldn't tell how [Em] deep my footprints went.
[Am] The vertex of my redemption arc, the searching of that virgin [D] heart,.
I'm catatonic in your arms, crying how did [Bm] I cause so much [Am] harm,.
I'm down, pounding my head [D] against the kitchen floor,.
[Bm] Apologizing for my life and [Em] never centering yours,.
Don't [Am] say I'm sorry, but this can't go on,.
I know you've got scars of your [D] own,.
But how'd I know before you'd go alive and [D] live or die alone?.
[G] .
.
[C] I swear, I [G] will die trying,.
I'm still [Am] in the process, but I'm making progress,.
I [D] promise I honestly wanna prove, improve, make [G] possible, [A] I [Bm] .
[C] swear.
I'm so [G] fucking sorry, I'm not [Am] a good person, I'm barely a person at all,.
[D] But someday I'll be perfect and I'll make up for it all.
