Chord Picking Up Pieces by Blue October

capo 1 standard tuning there is an ok version of this song already on the site , but it needed several corrections and the title was wrong there is no "the" in the title . here is my version , hope you like it . comments and corrections are welcome . note : if you aren’t worried about playing along with the key of the song , transpose it one step up . it’s much easier to play . F C i really need to talk with you Dm i keep stepping on the vein A# that keeps my lifeline flowing through . F C i wanna be your perfect stick of glue Dm but i don’t feel perfect at all , a sad and insecure flaw F C i find it hard to hold conversations Dm A# i get sweaty , sick , and i wanna walk away F C no , it’s not you , this is strictly me in this situation Dm i’m wondering will it ever go away? just go away , still . . . Gm sometimes i feel like weeping F awake and when i’m sleeping C Dm perfecting how to put a game face on Gm this puzzle i’ve been keeping F has been in hiding creeping C A out the closet door , spilling out onto the floor; F Am Dm F Am Dm how long will i be picking up pieces? F Am Dm A# C how long will i be picking up my heart? F C listen , i’ll be as honest as i feel Dm i’m getting more paranoid , and i’m hearing things A# F and they never turn out real . C it feels like my heart is made of pure steel , Dm it’s just so heavy all the time . F C i’m scared of death , i’m scared of living Dm A# i gave up on the past ’cause it’s unforgiving F i misplaced my trust , C i watched my word begin to rust , Dm i’m that balloon about to bust A# i need a place for reliving still - Gm sometimes i feel like weeping F awake and when i’m sleeping C Dm perfecting how to put a game face on Gm and this puzzle i’ve been keeping F has been in hiding creeping C A out the closet door , spilling out onto the floor; F Am Dm F Am Dm how long will i be picking up pieces? F Am Dm C Dm how long will i be picking up my heart? C Dm be picking up my heart? x3 A# Dm picking up my heart? A# F C x4 F Am Dm how long in another space in time will i be F Am Dm picking up pieces in the corner of my mind? F Am Dm how long it’s getting oh so hard to find will i be F Am Dm picking up pieces in the corner of my mind? c’mon . . . F Am Dm whoah . . . but i still walk on . . .
