[G]
Every time we speak, [C] our words betray [G] intentions, [C] [G] insincere inventions.
[Am] We never quite reach [G] the heart, so we turn the other cheek.
[C] And gather [G] our defenses,
[C] again [G] rebuild the fences that just [Am] been keeping us [G] apart.
Waiting at the worst, [C] we keep the [G] best inside us, [C] in hopes our hearts [G] can hide us, [Am] in hopes our tears [G] don't show.
And you know we're not the first, [C] to try and [G] reach the distance, [C] though we need [G] resistance.
It takes us, [Am] to love between [G] our throats.
And in [C] the time [G] it takes us, [Bb] to look beyond [Am] the lines, we could [C] be, seeing [Bm] through each [C] other's [G] eyes.
[C]
[D] In [C] those, [Bm] souring moments, [Bb] when love is caught [Am] off guard, you see [C] it [Bm] never had to be [C] this hard.
