[Intro]
A6 Em/A Dm6/A A x2
[Verse]
A6 Em/A Dm6/A A
I don't mind the abuse,
A6 Em/A Dm6/A A
It fills in time, when I'm not much use,
[Chorus]
Em7 Gadd9
But its killing me,
A6 Em/A Dm6/A A
Killing me slowly.
[Verse]
A6 Em/A Dm6/A A
They all say, I'm too restless but,
A6 Em/A Dm6/A A
Words cut deep, when you're defenseless,
[Chorus]
Em7 Gadd9
But its killing me,
A6 Em/A Dm6/A A
Killing me slowly.
[Middle]
Dm
There was a time when we were fine,
G
And I could tolerate you,
C
I do believe that you should leave,
Am7
Because I've grown to hate you,
Dm
Should I be weak and turn my cheek,
G
Because I'm scared to fall,
Esus4 E
But I just don't know you and you don't know me at all.
[Verse]
A6 Em/A Dm6/A A
I've been told, that love's a celebration,
A6 Em/A Dm6/A A
But, I've lost faith, through frustration,
[Chorus]
Em7 Gadd9
But its killing me,
A6 Em/A Dm6/A A
Killing me slowly.
[Bridge]
Am G#aug
You paint my picture black,
C/G Am/F#
The jokes on me, and I don't wanna laugh,
Fmaj7/A G
Remeber the good times, won't you bring them back,
Fmaj7/A G/B Esus4
Someday, somehow.
[Verse]
A6 Em/A Dm6/A A
I don't mind feeling blue,
A6 Em/A Dm6/A A
If I could smile just like you do,
[Chorus]
Em7 Gadd9
But its killing me,
A6 Em/A Dm6/A A
Killing me slowly.
[Bridge]
Am G#aug
I can't go on alone,
C/G Am/F#
Pretending nothings wrong.
Fmaj7/A G
Maybe I just want to belong,
Fmaj7/A
Someday, somehow.
G/B E7sus4
Somehow
[Outro]
A Am7 D7/A A x4
