[Chorus 1]
        C    F C      F     C
Well, I tried    to open up my window
     F            C
And let the light come in
       C      F C        
I step outside    in the 
  F            C
middle of the morning
             F      C
And in the evening again
         C   F C          F     
Yes, I tried     to be grateful 
  C
for my devils
        F       C
And call them by their names
         C     F C           
But, I'm tired      by the 
  F           C
middle of the morning
  F       C
I need someone to blame
 

[Verse 1]
              G           
I know you're scared of me, 
      F
I can see it in your face
       C                  
I can feel it in the way 
          Am
you move around this place
               G           
I know you're scared of me, 
      F
I can see it in your smile
         C                    
Like an unattended child you 
             G
can't quitе trust
 

[Chorus 2]
         C   F C             
But I'm tired    of steppin' 
F       C
on your shadow
       F     C
And feeling in the way
         C    F C         
Yеs, I'm tired    by the 
  F           C
middle of the morning
          F        C
I'm out of shit to say
 


[Verse 2]
         G                   
I ain't used to this, seein' 
   F
everybody's hand
       C                    
I was raised to be a strong 
            Am
and silent Southern man
         G           
I ain't used to this, 
    F
a thousand days alone
      C                          G
In my bed or in my head or in my phone
 

[Chorus 3]
          C    F C          F  
Yes, I'm tired     of livin' 
       C
in the moment
        F             C
And sleeping through the dream
          C   F C         
I step outside    in the 
  F           C
middle of the morning
           F             C
And the roses hear the scream

[Verse 3]
               G          
I know you're scared of me, 
       F
so I never get too close
       C                       
I just sit here on the tailgate 
      Am
like a farmhand's ghost
           G           
Watch the roses bloom, 
           F
watch 'em wilt away and die
         C                   
'till I notice I've been cryin' 
        G
this whole time
 

[Chorus 1]
        C    F C      F     C
Well, I tried    to open up my window
     F            C
And let the light come in
       C      F C          F    
I step outside    in the middle 
        C
of the morning
             F      C
And in the evening again
 
[Outro]
