[Intro]
C     B 
 
 
Oh yeah 
 
Oh yeah
[Strophe]
C 
 So scared of breaking it 
      B 
But you won't let it bend 
C 
 And I wrote two hundred letters 
B 
I won't ever send 
C 
 Somehow it is cut so much 
B 
Deeper then they seem 
C 
 You'd rather cover up 
B 
I'd rather let them be  
      C 
So let me be 
           B7 
And I'll set you free
[Refrain]
Em     Am    D    G 
  I    am in misery 
        Em          Am 
There ain't no other 
         D      G 
Who can comfort me 
Em    Am        D      G 
 Why  won't you answer me? 
      Em         Am     D      G 
Your silence is slowly killing me  
Em               Am 
 Girl you really got me bad 
D                  G 
 You really got me bad 
Em                 Am 
 I'm gonna get you back 
D              G 
Gonna get you back
[Strophe]
C 
Your salty skin and how 
      B 
It mixes in with mine 
C 
The way it feels to be 
B 
Completely intertwined 
C 
It's not that I didn't care 
B 
It's that I didn't know 
C 
It's not what I didn't feel, 
B 
It's what I didn't show  
      C 
So let me be 
           B7 
And I'll set you free 
[Refrain]
Em     Am    D    G 
  I    am in misery 
        Em          Am 
There ain't no other 
         D      G 
Who can comfort me 
Em    Am        D      G 
 Why  won't you answer me? 
      Em         Am     D      G 
Your silence is slowly killing me  
Em               Am 
 Girl you really got me bad 
D                  G 
 You really got me bad 
Em                 Am 
 I'm gonna get you back 
D              G 
Gonna get you back
[Pont]
Bm 
Say your faith is shaken 
Am 
You may be mistaken 
B7 
You keep me wide awake and 
G 
Waiting for the sun 
Bm 
I'm desperate and confused 
Am 
So far away from you 
C 
I'm getting here 
B 
Don't care where I have to go  
Em   Am     D           G 
 Why do you do what you do to me, yeah 
Em   Am     D           G 
 Why won't you answer me, answer me yeah 
Em   Am     D           G 
 Why do you do what you do to me yeah 
Em   Am     D           G 
 Why won't you answer me, answer me yeah
[Refrain]
Em     Am    D    G 
  I    am in misery 
        Em          Am 
There ain't no other 
         D      G 
Who can comfort me 
Em    Am        D      G 
 Why  won't you answer me? 
      Em         Am     D      G 
Your silence is slowly killing me
