A Letter To Elise Chords

   
Intro: A, E, F#m, D

   A                                E
Oh Elise it doesn't matter what you say I just can't stay here every 
F#m                           D
yesterday like keep on acting out the same the way we act out

A                             E
Every way to smile forget and make-believe we never needed
F#m                D
Any more than this any more than this

   A                                E
Oh Elise it doesn't matter what you do I know I'll never really 
F#m                            D
get inside of you to make your eyes catch fire the way they should

    A                                E
The way the blue could pull me in if they only would if they only would at
F#m                                  D
least I'd lose this sense of sensing something else that hides away

     A                                       E
From me and you there're worlds to part with aching looks and breaking hearts and
F#m                                    D
all the prayers your hands can make oh I just take as much as you can throw

A                              E
    And then throw it all away    Oh I throw it all away
F#m                     D
    Like throwing faces at the sky like throwing arms round

E                                 F#m
Yesterday I stood and stared wide-eyed in front of you and the
E                                F#m
face I saw looked back the way I wanted to but I
E                                 F#m
just can't hold my tears away the way you do

 G                    F#m
Elise believe I never wanted this
  G                                    F#m
I thought this time I'd keep all of my promises
  G                                  F#m
I thought you were the girl I always dreamed about
      G                        F#m
But I let the dream go and the promises broke
                         
And the make-believe ran out...

E, F#m, E, F#m, E, F#m, E, D, A, E, F#m, D, A, E, F#m, D, A, E, F#m, D

   A                                E
So Elise it doesn't matter what you say I just can't stay here every 
F#m                           D
yesterday like keep on acting out the same The way we act out

A                             E
Every way to smile forget and make-believe we never needed
F#m                D
Any more than this any more than this

    A                           E
And every time I try to pick it up like falling sand
   F#m                          D
As fast as I pick it up it runs away through my clutching hands
            A                            E
But there's nothing else I can really do there's nothing else I can really do
F#m                                     D
There's nothing else I can really do at all...
