Its Been Awhile

[Intro]
| G#m B | F# C# | G#m B | F# C# |

[Verse 1]
G#m
   And it's been awhile,
B             F#    C#
 since I could  hold  my head up high.
G#m                     B
   And it's been awhile,
                 F#    C#
since I first saw  you.
G#m
   And it's been awhile,
B                   F#         C#
 since I could stand  on my own  two feet again.
G#m                     B
   And it's been awhile,
                  F#    C#
since I could call  you.

[Chorus]
G#m               B             F#
   And everything, I can't remember,
C#5 G#m               B                F#
       as fucked up as it all may seem.
G#m             B                F#    C#5
   The consequences that I've rendered,
G#m                     B                F# C#5
   I've stretched myself beyond my means.

[Verse 2]
G#m
   And it's been awhile,
B               F#          C#
 since I can say  that I wasn't addicted.
   G#m
And   it's been awhile,
B               F#             C#
 since I can say  I love myself  as well as.
G#m
   And it's been awhile,
B                    F#                        C#
 since I've gone and fucked things up just like  I always
   G#m                     B
do.   And it's been awhile,
                 F#                  C#
but all that shit  seems to disappear  when I'm with you.
G#m              B
   And everything

[Chorus]
             F# C#5
I can't remember
G#m               B                F# C#5
   as fucked up as it all may seem.
G#m             B                F#    C#5
   The consequences that I've rendered.
G#m                    B
   I've gone and fucked things up again,
F#      C#5 F# C#5
  again.

[Interlude]
G#m                         F# C#5
   Why must I feel this way?
G#m                        F# C#5
   Just make this go a way.
G#m                           F# C#5 G#5
   Just one more peaceful day.

[Verse 3]
G#m
   And It's been awhile,
B             F#    C#
 since I could  look  at myself straight.
G#m                     B
   And it's been awhile,
                    F# C#
since I said I'm sorry.
G#m
   And It's been awhile,
B                    F#         C#
 since I've seen the way the candles light your face.
G#m                     B
   And It's been awhile,
               F#             C#
but I can still  remember just  the way you taste.
G#m              B
   And everything

[Chorus]
             F# C#5
I can't remember
G#m               B               F#      C#5
   as fucked up as it all may seem  to be I  know it's me.
G#m              B
   I cannot blame
             F#
this on my father,
C#5 G#m               B                F# C#5
       he did the best he could for me.

[Outro]
G#m
   And It's been awhile,
B             F#    C#
 since I could  hold  my head up high.
G#m                     B
   And it's been awhile,
                    F#
since I said I'm sorry.
