I Can Barely Say

[Intro]  G  F  C9  Cm7  F

G                           F                        C9
I said I told you everything but I left something out
          Cm7      F
Underneath the stairwell
G                          F                          C9
That I'm under lock and key, but you can probably tell
            Cm7       F
A powder keg in a prison cell

Am7            D9                 Em                 C9
  I wanna return but all you will do is turn to leave
Am7                        D9  Ebm           Em        C
  If I can find my way home, will you take hold of me?

               G
I've been gone so long
           D9
I can barely say
              Em                C
All I know is now I want to stay
             G                    D9
Has it been too long since I went away?
                    Em                 C             G   F  C9  Cm7  F
Cause I'm trying to find the words but I can barely say

G                        F
Well I used to be the sun
              C9          Cm7    F
Waiting silently but they barely noticed me
G                             F                  C9         Cm7     F
But I've been talking in my sleep when anybody sees they turn and run from me

Am7            D9                 Em                 C9
  I wanna return but all you will do is turn to leave
Am7                        D9  Ebm           Em        C
  If I can find my way home, will you take hold of me?

               G
I've been gone so long
           D9
I can barely say
              Em                C
All I know is now I want to stay
             G                    D9
Has it been too long since I went away?
                    Em                 C
Cause I'm trying to find the words but I can barely say


Am7             D9
  I wanted to run
              Em                       Am7
I wanted to love and be loved in return
                     D9   Ebm      Em              C
But will I ever get back, do I know too much to return

( G  F  C9  Cm7  F )

               G
I've been gone so long
           D9
I can barely say
              Em                C
All I know is now I want to stay
             G                    D9
Has it been too long since I went away?
                    Em                 C      Cm7
Cause I'm trying to find the words but I can barely say
