Intro
[Bm] [A] [D] [Bm] [A] [D]
Verse 1
[Bm]I've hardly been [A]outside my room in [D]days, [Bm]'cause I don't feel that I[A]
deserve the [D]sunshine's rays.
[Bm]The darkness helped [A]until the whiskey wore [D]away, [Bm]and it's then I [A]realize
the
[D]conscience never fades.
[Bm]When you're young [A]you have this image of your[D] life; [Bm]that you'll be [A]
scrupulous and one day [D]even make a wife.
[Bm]And you make [A]boundaries you'd never dream to [D]cross, [Bm]and if you happen to
[A]you'll
[D]wake completely lost.
But[Bm] I will fight for you, be [A]sure that I will fight until we're the [D]special
two once again.
Chorus
[Bm]And we will only [A]need each [D]other, we'll bleed [G]together, our [Bm]hands will
[A]not be taught to hold [D]another's, 'cause we're [G]the special two.
[Bm]And we could only[A] see each [D]other, we'll [G]breathe together, [Bm]these arms will[A]
not
be taught [D]to need another's, 'cause we [G]were the special two.
Verse 2
I remember someone old once said to me: that "lies will lock you up with
truth the only
key."
I was comfortable and warm inside my shell, and couldn't see this place
could
soon become my hell.
So is it better to tell and hurt or lie to save their face? Well I guess
the answer is
don't do it in the first place.
I know I'm not deserving of your trust from you right now, oh but if by
chance you change
your mind you know I will not let you down 'cause we were the special two,
and we'll be again.
Chorus
[Bm]And we will only [A]need each [D]other, we'll bleed [G]together, our [Bm]hands will
[A]not be taught to hold [D]another's, 'cause we're [G]the special two.
[Bm]And we could only[A] see each [D]other, we'll [G]breathe together, [Bm]these arms will[A]
not
be taught [D]to need another's, 'cause we [G]were the special two.
Outro
I step outside my mind's eyes for a minute. And I look over me like a
doctor looking
for disease, or something that could ease the pain.
But nothing cures the hurt you, you bring on by yourself, just remembering,
just remembering
who we were...
Enjoy!
