Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 (  couple of times
If  I could crawl inside  of you
I'm  laughing with a broken  face
I  stumble across my  self esteem
But  to picture the pleasure is making me want  my space
Understand  ...
that  God wrapped like  a bow
But  in my head ...
There's  some shelves that need cleaning from basement to ceiling
control
 (same  -  -  - )
 If what you're seeing is an open book
 that's great well I'm an open book, but i'm real shy.
 There's a part of me seeking and desperately needing to open up.
 That's strange 'cause i'm an open book, a confused boy.
 (  -  -  -  again.)
I'm  an automatic steeple for depressed and lonely people
my  heart while in it's cage, is used to giving and not recieve a thing
but  the only funny thing, is that i don't know how to give myself
Advice.
I've  got this post traumatic thing I've got this tatoo of a ring that lies
Around  my wedding finger, that's where I'd like to state this claim
that  i gotta learn to live and dream before I go and get myself
In  love
In  love ... before, before, before I go and get myself
in  love.
 (Am---Am)
There's  Zoloft, Wellbutrin, there's Paxil that's groovin'
no  side effects.
But  the rest left unnamed 'cause they worked like a charm
on  me.
but  when your savings is drying you can't stop from crying
You  gotta suck it up.
you're  not her buttercup, you'r not her
Favorite  book.
