Verse 1:
There’s nothing that I can say
To make you want to stay
here with me forever
There’s nothing that I can do
To make you want me like
I need you to I need you to
Chorus:
Just give me one last
chance to say this
Just give me one last chance
to say what’s on my mind
And I will get it right
If I could only get my head above
the water for a moment of your time
But you seem so strong and I
can’t hold my breath for long
(hold)
Have you ever tried
(hold) (hold) (hold)
to scream underwater?
Post Chorus 1:
You’ll choke
You’ll choke
Interlude: Bb--C--F--C
Verse 2:
You said I always sang too
loud to sing you a love song
Well, I save my soft voice for
the things I really mean
You always said I had a hard
time saying what’s on my mind
Well here it goes
I hate you for what
you’ve done to me
(Repeat Chorus)
Post Chorus 2:
You’ll choke
You’ll choke

Outro:
When the last word’s been said
and the last tear’s been shed
I will miss you, miss you my friend
And I can’t tell you lies
Even after all these years
Bb Dm C F(hold) C Bb, F--C--Bb--- repeat until fade
I still cry
