Christ on the cross, no more room, just slide off
Meet on the wire, no more lines, can't climb higher
[G]So from your new plateau you writhe and w[A]ait,
For something real to shake your b[G]ones,
To turn you back into a [A]person

You sublet the space, cut your costs, flipped off fate
And watched while she packed, cried and cried, but no come back
[G]You figured you could sit around and wa[A]it,
For love this real to just pop u[G]p,
[A]To fall from trees, to ride on rainstorms
Chorus
[G]Convinced it was w[D]orth it,[G] you swore it was[Bm] worth [A]it
[G]You said it was wo[D]rth it through the [A]first hit
[Em]But back am[D]ongst the dirt and s[Bm]pent gr[A]ass
[Em]The empty c[D]offee cups, the [Bm]green gl[A]ass
[Em]The basement b[D]rokering and [Bm]side be[A]ts
[Em]The puzzle pie[D]ces in the [Bm]tool sh[A]ed
[G]I think you can build it[D],
[G]I think you can [Bm]build i[A]t
[G]I know you can b[D]uild it cause I[A] built it
[G]Convinced it was w[D]orth it,[G] you swore it was[Bm] worth [A]it
[G]You said it was wo[D]rth it through the [A]first hit
[G]Back before you mov[D]ed so fast
[G]And traced your veins with s[Bm]plintered [A]glass
[G]Your lazy eyes aligned [D]to find a [A]purpose, a purpose
