D A
You thought by now
Em
You'd have it figured out
G
You can't erase the way it pulls
D
When seasons change
A
It hurts sometimes
Em
To find where you begin
G
You are perfect porcelain
D A
The slow and simple melody
Em G
Of tears you cannot keep from me
D A Em G
It's alright if you don't know what you need
D A
I'm right here when
Em
You need someone to see
It's not speak
G D
Or forever hold your peace
A
It's alright to take time
Em
And find where you've been
G
You are perfect porcelain
D A
The slow and simple melody
Em G
Of tears you cannot keep from me
D A Em G
It's alright if you don't know what you need
D A Em G
D A
Oh, when your heart releases,
Em
You won't fall to pieces
G
You'll let those old diseases lie
D A
Oh, and your heart releases,
Em
You won't fall to pieces
G
And your breath comes crashing in
Like perfect porcelain
D A
The slow and simple melody
Em G
Of tears you cannot keep from me
D A Em G
It's alright if you don't know what you need
