Say the words I cannot say Say them on another day Fragile words like these will cut your tongue Was I good enough? Was I bad enough? When I wanted more, yeah, you had enough But nobody's gonna try for you, nobody's gonna do like I for you (chords same as first verse) And every slow-lit cigarette that nervous hands can barely get the courage I could always feel your eyes And those dresses you made look like gowns You're a sinner but the devil didn't turned you down But, nobody's gonna try for you, nobody's gonna do like I for you Nobody's gonna try for you, and nobody's gonna lie for you And nobody's gonna do like I for you Bridge chords: (chords same as first verse) Hold me like you never could, I'll hold you like I said I would Air or light won't breathe nor shine between With your feather lips, yeah, you fly away Well I hope they come back down someday, 'cos (chords same as first chorus) Nobody's gonna try for you, nobody's gonna do like I for you Somebody's getting by for you, I don't bend, I just break in two Somebody like me... I'd die for you
