Intro
[A] [E] [D]
[A] [E] [D]
Verse 1
[A] [E]
I watched you fold the blue coat,
[D] [A]
hang it on the chair.
[A] [E]
You laughed at some dumb story,
[D] [A]
I was there, but somewhere else.
[E]
You kissed my cheek in passing,
[F#m] [D] [E]
and I kissed back like I knew how.
Pre-Chorus
[Bm]
I hate the way I notice
[D] [A]
the space between our hands.
[Bm]
I keep on asking nothing,
[D] [E7]
just to feel your fingers land.
Chorus
[A] [E]
I still care, I still care,
[F#m] [D]
why does my heart feel less?
[A] [E]
I still care, I still care,
[D] [A]
and that is what scares me best.
[E]
I don't want to lose you,
[F#m] [D]
I don't know what changed.
[A] [E]
I still care, I still care,
[D] [A]
and I feel ashamed.
Verse 2
[A] [E]
At two in the morning,
[D] [A]
I lie awake and stare.
[E]
Trying to find the moment
[D] [A]
the fire went out somewhere.
[E]
Was it a Tuesday dinner?
[F#m] [A]
Was it your hair in rain?
[E]
I replay every small thing,
[D] [A]
like a man who can't explain.
Pre-Chorus
[Bm] [A]
You made me tea with honey,
[D] [A]
you saved me the last slice.
[Bm]
You touch my sleeve and ask me
[D] [E]
if I've been sleeping right.
Chorus
[A] [E]
I still care, I still care,
[F#m] [D]
why does my heart feel less?
[A] [E]
I still care, I still care,
[D] [A]
and that is what scares me best.
[E]
I don't want to lose you,
[F#m] [D]
I don't know what changed.
[A] [E]
I still care, I still care,
[A]
and I feel ashamed.
Bridge
[Bm] [A]
There's no one else, no wound here,
[D] [A]
just this quiet slow decline.
[Bm] [A]
You love me like the first time,
[D] [A]
I love you like a goodbye.
[F#m] [A]
And I would trade forever
[D] [A]
for one clean honest sign,
[Bm]
for one clear reason why this
[D] [A] [E]
feels like crossing a line.
[Final Chorus]
[A] [E]
I still care, I still care,
[F#m] [D]
why does my heart feel less?
[A] [E]
I still care, I still care,
[D]
and that is what scares me best.
[A] [E]
I don't want to break you,
[F#m] [D]
I don't know what changed.
[A] [E]
I still care, I still care,
[D] [A]
and I feel ashamed.
