This is how he plays it when he plays it acoustic
D G
Elbows on the window sill
D A
My head against the pane
F#m G
You've seen so many grow and die
D A
But you forgot most of their names
So I fire that arrow into the great big sky
Bnd I hope that it never comes down
Unless you're coming with it
It's better with you around
I could drink myself to death tonight
Or I could stand and give a toast
To those who made it out alive
It's you I'll miss the most
But tonight I'll see my sweetheart
I've got a fifty dollar bill
But somewhere in her weak heart
She knows I never will

F#m G D A
Oh love, it's hard to hide it
F#m G D A
True love, it's hard to find it
F#m G D A
Though I was once beside it
F#m G D A
I've fallen far behind it
D G
from a tiny room up on Smith Hill
D A
It's easy to disappear
F#m G
It's easier to run off hiding
D A
Then say "I don't want you here"
D G
I can't stand to face the facts
D A
It'd only leave you hurt
F#m
I don't care much for what you have to say
D A
But I'd like to know what you heard
Oh love, it's hard to hide it
True love, it's hard to fid it
Though I once was beside it
I've fallen far behind it
