(INTRO)
Bbm Ab/C Gb/Db
-----------------------------------------
Bbm Ab/C Gb/Db
One and three, you are here (to tell me we can't do this)
Bbm
To tell me we can't do this
Ab/C Gb/Db
(Three for three, I'll disagree.)
-----------------------------------------
Bbm Ab Gb
Anymore...
-----------------------------------------
Bbm Ab Gb
Your hair and face against the mirror
Bbm Ab
As I take the steps
Gb
To save what's left of me
Bbm Ab Gb
Someone's out when it's over
-----------------------------------------
Bbm Ab Gb
People steal from you
Bbm Ab Gb
They take anything they choose
-----------------------------------------
Ebm Db Ab
It's good to see you (I missed you last night)
Ebm Db Ab
That's such a lovely color (It goes with your eyes)
Ebm Db Ab
Before we fall asleep (I just wanted to say)
Ebm Db Ab
This all seems so easy, but there's choices to make
-----------------------------------------
Gb
Can't decide
Ab
Then look at the faces (candlelight)
Ebm
We're burning the pages (But ask us why)
Ab
And hurting ourselves with this false start
Gb
(Resign yourself) and we pretend
Ab
It simply gets easier
Ebm
But does it get easier
Ab7
When we have these mornings where we can't say goodbye,
-----------------------------------------
Db Ebm F Ab
I wanted to mean everything to you
Db Ebm Gb [Gb-F-Eb-F] <--notes, not chords
But this isn't right
Db Ebm F Ab
You keep coming back disassembled and
Db Ebm Gb
I keep losing this fight.
-----------------------------------------
(TIME CHANGE: 6/8)
Bbm Ab/C Gb/Db
I won't (I won't)
Bbm Ab/C Gb/Db
An - swer (Answer)
-----------------------------------------
Bbm Ab Gb
Dancing on the starlight glow
Bbm Ab Gb
No one in the city knows
Bbm Ab Gb
Confidence can take you
Bbm
Nerves try to shake you
Ab Gb Bbm
From going all the way
-----------------------------------------
Bbm
It's not that far
-----------------------------------------
Ebm Db Ab
It's good to see you, I missed you last night
Ebm Db Ab
That's such a lovely color, it goes with your eyes
Ebm Db Ab
Before we fall asleep, I just wanted to say
Ebm Db Ab
This all seems so easy -- there's choices to make.
-----------------------------------------
[Bb] [Db]
We watch the tide roll in with cold air and coffee cakes
[Eb]
Holding our words at lips, stopping the sounds they make
[Gb]
We know the way to go we know each step to take to be here...
-----------------------------------------
Bbm
These words with no replies
Ab
Stopping we's and starting I's
Ebm
This need is killing me
Ab7
And taking me over
-----------------------------------------
Db Ebm Fm Ab
I wanted to mean everything to you
Db Ebm Ab
But this isn't right
Db Ebm Fm Ab
You keep coming back disassembled and
Db Ebm Ab
I keep losing this fight
