	        Am            F 
I am selfish when I need you 
            C                    G 
I am the blistering side of the wall in the back of your room 


Am                       F                            C                        G 
We watched the sea turn away from the shore and head back out the way that it came 
             Am                          F                       C                 G 
If you are chasing your love, you don't want it enough and it's best just to walk away 
                    Am                F 
Tell yourself your pride is just the same 
               C                   G                Am 
Trying not to count the days 'til mine gets washed away 
  F         C                 G 
Carry your head up along the way 


      Am                      F                        C    G                         Am 
And you'll say you lack the courage and the guts of a hero even when they're on your side 
                  F                        C 
Let's watch the middle fade away 'til it's all gone 
       Am            F 
I am selfish when I need you  
            C                    G                        Am 
I am the blistering side of the wall in the back of your room 
          F                    C                         G    Am F C  
I am the envy of what you're afraid to write and that's fine 


 G                 Am        F                   C    G 
Seems to me like everyone around here is just waiting 


               Am                    F 
I don't wanna move cause it's just enough 
               C                   G 
I don't wanna blink cause I might miss it 
                 Am             F 
Tell me when it gets to be too much 
            C                 G 
Carry your head up along the way 



      Am                      F                        C           G                Am 
And you'll say you lack the courage and the guts of a hero, and everybodys on your side 
                  F                        C 
We'll watch the middle fade away 'til it's all gone 
       Am            F 
I am selfish when I need you  
            C                    G                        Am 
I am the blistering side of the wall in the back of your room 
          F                    C                         G 
I am the envy of what you're afraid to write and that's fine 


 C                G               Am 
All we need is a place we can be alone 
 C                     G                          Am                 F 
Just with you and with me and without all this desperate weight that I have 
 C                G        Am 
All I want is to just be honest 
 C                       G                    Am         F                   C G Am F    C G Am F C G x2 
You're the piece that I just found out how to fit to and I don't see you anymore 


       Am            F 
I am selfish when I need you  
             C                   G                        Am 
I am the blistering side of the wall in the back of your room 
          F                    C                         G 
I am the envy of what you're afraid to write and that's fine 
Am              F                       C 
You lack the courage and the guts of a hero 
       G                 Am 
And everybody's on your side 
                  F                         C 
We'll watch the middle fade away 'til it's all gone 
G                   Am         F C G  
I just wanna waste your time
