Lift Me Up

     D#m                                      C#

[Verse]

D#m
I have this human love
                  C#    D#m
It shattered once or twice
D#m
It pulls me up and down
D#m                    C#
If it’s filled with jagged ice
F#                   B                        D#m
Everyday I’m wanting something I ain’t havin’ mmhm mmhm
D#m
I have this human heart
              C#    D#m
My mother told me so
D#m                                           C#
She said this shit can go to pieces boy be careful
    F#                    B                     D#m
But you and me and me and you got something magic mmhm
D#m
So I say to you

     D#m                                        C#
If I told you I was broke I was broke would you fix me
D#m                                       C#      F#
