Bear's Den - Honest Mistake Chords

[verse 1]
                       Em
a perfect picture of embarrassment
             C
steadying my shaking hands
                 G
wrapped around a glass again
                  D
and look at me now
                   Em
I am choking on my medicine
                       C
those same pills by my fathers bed
                G
now I need them too
                    D
come to think of it I can’t think of anyone
     Em
that doesn’t use

[pre-chorus]
                         C
There’s something in the water
                              G
something swimming in my drink
                        D
There is plastic in our oceans
                       Em
There is plastic in my dreams
                   C
I’m a fading belle in the harshest light
G
 clawing at the sky
D                           Em
 as all your stars hang over me tonight

[chorus]
               C              G
Yeah it was an honest mistake
               D                    Em
to love you in such an ugly kind of way
               C              G
Yeah it was an honest mistake
                   D                    C
to believe a single word that you’d say

[verse 2]
                                  Em
I wish you’d deal your words more carefully
                       C
can’t you see that i’m down and out
                  G
I appreciate your honesty
                      D
but my whole world is fingernails clinging
        Em
to your balcony
                         C                G
I wish your words didn’t hurt but they do
                         D                       Em
I wish I wasn’t quite so frightened of the truth

[pre-chorus]
                         C
There’s something in the water
                              G
something swimming in my drink
                        D
There is plastic in our oceans
                       Em
There is plastic in my dreams
                   C
I’m a fading belle in the harshest light
G
 clawing at the sky
D                           Em
 as all your stars hang over me tonight

[chorus]
               C              G
Yeah it was an honest mistake
               D                    Em
to love you in such an ugly kind of way
               C              G
Yeah it was an honest mistake
                   D                    C
to believe a single word that you’d say

[bridge]
              G
It's a crying shame
                      D
with no words left to say
                       Em                       C
we’ve been looking for anything to lead us back
                      G
But you can’t hear my side
                  D
I can’t read your mind
                     Em
I’m clinging on to a memory
                      C
if that’s all that we have
                        G
Then that’s a hell of a waste
                D
as we fall from grace
            Em
all tangled up in honest mistakes

 Yeah it was an honest mistake

to love you in such an ugly kind of way
               C              G
Yeah it was an honest mistake
                   D                Em
to believe a single word that you’d say

to love you in such an ugly kind of way
