Capo: 1st fret

[Verse]
G
All that Ive wanted is to
 
   Cadd9
talk
                     G
 to someone who’s dead
 
                            Cadd9
But Unfortunately I can’t call
                    G
him so I sing instead
                       D79
Id never tell you to cover
                 G
your self in a lie
 
But I will still bite my lip
 
Cadd9                    G
harder so that I don’t cry
 
         Am
And it burns
        G
for a while
        Am
And it hurts all the more
             D7
when you carry the world
         G
as a child
 
 
[Verse 2]
G                         Cadd9
Let me just tell you I really
                    G
should go back to sleep
 
It’s not that Im ungrateful
  Cadd9
I have just two many
               G
memories to keep
 
Iwish you could feel
     D79
how  heavy I am all the
G
 time
 
Sometimes when I smile
     Cadd9
I bite my lip
                 G
so that I don’t cry
 
        Am
And it burns
        G
for a while
         Am
And it hurts all the more
             D7
when you carry the world
       G
as a child
 
G Cadd9 Am D7
 
 
[Verse 3] *One Strum This Last Part*
       Am
And I burn
         G
For myself
        Am
And I know that it should
           D7
When it’s screaming at me
       G
to be felt
              let me just tell you
i really should go back to sleep
it’s not that i’m ungrateful
i have too many memories to keep

i wish you could feel just how heavy i am all the time
sometimes when i smile
i bite my lip so i don’t cry

and it burns
for a while
and it hurts all the more
when you carry the world as a child

all that i’ve wanted is to talk to someone who is dead
but unfortunately i can’t call him so i sing instead
though i’d never tell you to cover yourself in a lie
but i will still bite my lip harder so that i don’t cry

and it burns
for a while
and it hurts all the more
when you carry the world as a child

and i burn for myself
cause i know that i should
when it’s screaming at me to be felt
and we burn all the time
cause it hurts all the more
when we carry the world as a child
