Intro

Asus4 C G Dsus2 x2

Verse 1

It's been awhile since I could - hold my head up high
It's been awhile since I first saw you 
It's been awhile since I could stand on my own two feet again
It's been awhile since I could call you 

Chorus

And everything I can't remember 
As fucked up as it all may seem 
The consequences that I've rendered 
I stretched myself beyond my means 

Verse 2

It's been awhile since I couldn't say that I wasn't addicted
It's been awhile since I couldn't say I love myself as well as
It's been awhile since I've gone and fucked things up just like I always do
It's been awhile but all that shit seems to disappear when I'm with you

Chorus

And everything I can't remember 
As fucked up as it all may seem 
The consequences that I've rendered 
I've gone and fucked things up again, yeah  

Bridge

Why must I feel this way 
Just make this go away 
Just one more peaceful day  

Verse 3

It's been awhile since I could - look at myself straight
It's been awhile since I said I'm sorry 
It's been awhile since I've seen the way candles light your face
It's been awhile but I can still remember just the way you taste

Chorus

And everything I can't remember 
As fucked up as it all may seem to be I know it's me
(Am) C G D
I cannot blame this on my father
He did the best he could for me 

Outro

It's been awhile since I could - hold my head up high
It's been awhile since I said I'm sorry
