Please Believe Me Chords

[Intro]

[Verse 1]
C                            A
Endless nights of heartache, Punctuated by your love
G                              F
I could never talk so straight Then to tell ya who I was
C                                  A
All those times spent talking were Discarded by morning light
G                                    F
All the truths we held so close Only fed into the lie
 
[Chorus]
Em     F           Em               G
Please believe me, I didn't want to leave
Em             F           G
It just seemed easier than watching you grieve
Em       F         Em               G
Please believe me, I didn't mean to deceive
Em            F                  G
I only wish I could be more than I could ever be

[Verse 2]
C                           A
Just Another day hiding     Everything inside that I feel
G                                           F
Shoppin' at the shops we shopped at, always lookin for a better deal
C                           A
That's just an abstraction, a metaphorical scream
G                                  F
A low-calorie substitution   for a long forgotten concrete dream
 
[Chorus]
Em     F           Em               G
Please believe me, I didn't want to leave
Em             F           G
It just seemed easier than watching you grieve
Em              F         Em               G
All the pain that we caused was for nothing But you won in the end
Em                    F                    G
I think of you and my heart keeps breaking Again and again and again

Please believe me, I didn't want to leave
Em             F           G
It just seemed easier than watching you grieve
Em       F         Em               G
Please believe me, I didn't mean to deceive
Em            F                  G
I only wish I could be more than I could ever be
