Throwaway

[C]  [Em]  [G]  [Em]
[C]I re[G]member giving [Em]up the gory [A]details
[C]And it left me [G]tongue-tied (such and [Em]elementary [A]sickness)
Now I [C]don't want to [G]think and I [A]don't want to [Em]feel
I [C]wasn't [G]aware this was [A]part of the [Em]deal
[C]When I put my [G]finger on a [Em]greater expec[A]tation
[C]But just my [G]luck, I lack the [Em]patience of a [A]statesman
And [C]all of my [G]language will [A]fail to con[Em]vey
That I'm [C]terribly [G]twisted a[A]round what I [Em]say
And the [C]message that [G]I threw [A]away

I don't [C]have it [G]now   [Em]
I don't [C]have it [G]now   [Em]
I don't [C]have it [G]now   [Em]
I don't [C]have it [G]now   [Em]

So I keep hiding and it only grows to hurt me
But time is wasting and I'm watching it desert me
I'm digging a hole and I'm making it deep
And I'm starting to question the hours I keep
And the answer that I put to sleep

I don't have it now
I don't have it now
I don't have it now
I don't have it now

And so I'm writing with the hope that someone's reading
For all too likely runs the risk of me repeating
But I don't have the guts to prevent the decay
And I'm terribly twisted around what I say
And the courage that I threw away

I don't have it now
I don't have it now
I don't have it now
I don't have it now

I don't [C]have it [G]now   [Em]
I don't [C]have it [G]now   [Em]
I don't [C]have it [G]now   [A]
I don't [C]have it [G]now   [Bb]       [C]          [G]
