Intro: 

G -- F -- C -- D# - F


Verse 1:

G                       F
I said I told you everything
                     C
But I left something out
     D#        F
Underneath the stairwell
G                      F
And I'm under lock and key
                     C
But you can probably tell
         D#       F
A powder keg in a prison cell


Pre-Chorus:

Am            D
I want to return
                  Em            C
But all you would do is turn to leave
Am                   D
If I can find my way home
B             Em           C
Will you take hold of me
 

Chorus:

            G
I been gone so long
           D/F#
I can barely say
              Em              C
All I know is now I want to stay
              G
Has it been too long
             D/F#
Since I went away
                   Em
'Cause I'm trying to find the words
    C
But I can barely say

G -- F -- C -- D# - F


Verse 2:
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/t/the_fray/i_can_barely_say_crd_ver_3.html ]
G                F
I used to be the son
            C
Waiting silently
         D#     F
But they barely noticed me
G                        F
And I been talking in my sleep
           C
If anybody sees
        D#               F
They'll turn and they'll run from me


Pre-Chorus:

Am            D
I want to return
                  Em            C
But all you would do is turn to leave
Am                   D
If I can find my way home
B             Em           C
Will you take hold of me
 

Chorus:

             G
I been gone so long
           D/F#
I can barely say
              Em              C
All I know is now I want to stay
              G
Has it been too long
             D/F#
Since I went away
                   Em
'Cause I'm trying to find the words
    C
But I can barely say


Bridge: 

Am          D
I wanted to run
            Em                      Am
I wanted to love and be loved in return
                    D 
But will I ever get back
B    Em                 C
Do I know too much to return

G -- F -- C -- D# - F


Chorus:

            G
I been gone so long
           D/F#
I can barely say
              Em            C
All I know is now I want to stay
              G
Has it been too long
             D/F#
Since I went away
                   Em
'Cause I'm trying to find the words
    C
But I can barely say
