[Verse 1]
Gm F/A Bbsus2
Head under water
C Dm C/E F D7
And they tell me to breathe easy for a while
Gm F/A Bbsus2 C Dm C/E F D7
Breathing gets harder, even I know that
Gm F/A Bbsus2 C
Made room for me it's too soon to see
Dm C/E F D7
If I'm happy in your hands
Gm F/A Bbsus2 C Dm C/E F D7
I'm unusually hard to hold on to
[Pre Chorus]
Gm F/A
Blank stares at blank pages
Bb C
No easy way to say this
Gm
You mean well,
F/A Bbsus2
but you make this hard on me
Gm
I'm not gonna write you a love song
[Chorus]
C
Cause you asked for it
F/A
Cause you need one, you see
Bbsus2 Gm
I'm not gonna write you a love song
C
Cause you tell me it's
F/A
Make or break in this
Bbsus2
If you're on your way
Gm F/A
I'm not gonna write you to stay
Dm Bdim
All you have is leaving I'm need a better
Bbsus2 C
Reason to write you a love song today
[Bridge]
Gm F/A Bbsus2 C Dm C/E F D7

[Verse 2]
Gm F/A Bbsus2
I learned the hard way
C Dm C/E F D7
That they all say things you want to hear
Gm F/A Bbsus2 C Dm C/E F D7 Gm
My heavy heart sink s deep down under you and Your
F/A
twist
Bbsus2 C
ed words Your help
Dm C/E
just hurts You
F D7 Gm
are not what I thought you were
F/A Bbsus2 C Dm C/E F D7
Hello to high and dry
[Pre-Chorus]
Gm F/A
Convinced me to please you
Bbsus2 C
Made me think that I need this too
Gm F/A Bbsus2
I'm trying to let you hear me as I am
Gm
I'm not gonna write you a love song
[Chorus]
C
Cause you asked for it
F/A
Cause you need one, you see
Bbsus2 Gm
I'm not gonna write you a love song
C
Cause you tell me it's
F/A
Make or break in this
Bbsus2
If you're on your way
Gm F/A
I'm not gonna write you to stay
Dm Bdim
All you have is leaving I'm need a better
Bbsus2 C Dm
Reason to write you a love song today
[Bridge]
Am Bb F C/E
Promise me you'll leave the light on
Dm Am Bb F
To help me see daylight, my guide,
C
gone
Dm Am Bb C
Cause I believe there's a way you can love me
Because I say
Gm
Write you a love song
[Interlude]
F/A Bbsus2
Cause you asked for it
C Dm C/E
Cause you need one, you see
F D7 Gm
I'm not gonna write you a love song
F/A Bbsus2
Cause you tell me it's
C Dm C/E
Make or break in this oh
F D7 Gm
That why you wanted a love song
[Chorus]
C
Cause you asked for it
F/A
Cause you need one, you see
Bbsus2 Gm
I'm not gonna write you a love song
C
Cause you tell me it's
F/A
Make or break in this
Bbsus2
If you're on your way
Gm F/A
I'm not gonna write you to stay
Bbsus2
If your heart is nowhere in it
C
I don't want it for a minute
Babe,
Dm Bdim
I'll walk the seven seas when I believe that
There's a reason to
Bbsus2 C
Write you a love song today
