Everyday
Bm C
The same mistake
Em D/F#
The pieces don't fit
Bm C
How I guess
Em D/F# Bm C
Worn so thin and caving in
Em D/F# Bm C
Frozen between a no and yes

PRECHORUS
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/j/jenny_owen_youngs/what_beats_within_crd.html ]
Em D/F# Bm C
Oh, Oh I'm sliding for some time
Em D/F# Bm C
Oh, Oh Ripping in two
Em D/F# Bm C
Oh, Oh, The memory planted
Em D/F# Bm C
Oh, Oh, I'm just what grew
CHORUS
Em* D
You come to find me
G C
A mess at your door
Em* D G C
Arms under elbows as I hit the floor
Em* D G C
I mean to tell you just what I've done
Em* D G C
How could you choose me when I've just begun
C Bm Em D/F#
Bm C
Don't know what I'll be when morning comes
VERSE (SAME)
Every night
The sheets pulled tight
I'm sinking before I begin
Silent as the light goes black
And digging to see what beats within
PRECHORUS (SAME)
I'm sliding for some time
Ripping in two
A mountain of ashes
I'm just like you
CHORUS (SAME)
You come to find me
A mess at your door
Arms under elbows as I hit the floor
I mean to tell you just what I've done
How could you choose me when I've just begun
Don't know what I'll be when morning comes
