In My Veins

[Verse]
           C                 Am
We could live by the river together
      F                              G
But then you'd have to learn how to swim
                       C
I used to think that maybe there's
              Am
ways we could get there
       F                     G
But lately, the chances are thin
 
[Chorus]
                F                       G
But now I think oh how I wish I could tell you
            C            Am
about the poison in my veins
     F                       G
and oh I could wish I could say
                     C
nothing's going to change
 
[Verse]
  C                           Am
Last night I saw something different
        F                   G
And I don't want to see it again
             C
You told me we'd been through hell
         Am
and you knew me so well
     F                       G
but time didn't help in the end
 
[Chorus]
 
     F                      G
But oh how I wish I could tell you
            C            Am
about the poison in my veins
     F                       G
and oh I could wish I could say
                     C     Am   F
nothing's going to change
G                     C    Am   F  G
nothing's going to change
 
[Chorus]
     F                      G
But oh how I wish I could tell you
            C            Am
about the poison in my veins
       F
And I wish I could learn
     G
to live with the guilt
      C                    Am
of letting you down once again
               F                     G
And I keep thinking there must be a way
        C  Bm           Am  G
But it wouldn't be the same
        F                     G
But sometimes I wish I could say
                     C    Am   F
nothing's going to change
G                     C    Am   Bm G C
nothing's going to change
