"Bent"

verse1:
F#m Bm E F#m
If I fall along the way, pick me up and dust me off.
Bm E F#m
And if I get too tired to make it, be my breath so I can walk.
Bm E F#m
And if i need some other lovin', give me more than I can stand.
Bm E A
And when my smile gets old and faded, wait around i'll smile again.
F#m Bm
Shouldn't be so complicated, just hold me and then,

well just hold me again
(chorus)
A F#m D2 E
Can you help me, I'm bent? Im so scared that I'll never get put back together.
A F#m D2 F#m
Keep breakin' me in, and this is how we will end. with you and me bent.

(verse 2)
F#m Bm E F#m
If I couldn't sleep could you sleep? Could you paint me better off?
Bm E A
And could you sympathize with my needs? I know you think I need a lot.
F#m Bm
I started out clean but I'm jaded. Just phonin' it in, well just breakin my skin
(Chorus)

(bridge)
F#m D2 F#m D2 F#m
Start bendin' me. It's never enough, till I feel all your pieces.
D2 F#m D2 F#m
Start bending me, keep bendin me until I'm completely broken in.
A F#m Bm
shouldn't be so complicated, just touch me and then,

well, just touch me again.

A F#m D2 E
Can you help me, I'm bent? Im so scared that I'll never get put back together.
A F#m D2
Keep breakin' me in, and this is how we will end. with you and me landin,
A
without understandin. Hell I go there again. (chorus)

This was a pain to figure out. For me at least. Matchbox 20 is the best alternative band today. Rob Thomas is the man. If you get their cd's, you'll fall in love with every song. the more you listen to them the more you'll like them.
