[G] [F]
[C] [G] [Ab] [E] [Am]
[C] [F] [D] [C]
[B] [Am] [Dm] [G]
[C] Well to see things clear is hard enough I know
When you're waiting for reality to show
Without dreaming of [G] perfect [F] love
And holding [C] it so far [G] above
If you stumble onto [Ab] someone real
[Am] You'd never [C] know
[F] You'd never know
You might be with [C] somebody who is long too
Sometimes it [F] doesn't show
They might be trying to [C] get close to you
Words can [F] be so [Gbm] slow
When your [D] unemptiness [C] is [B] all [Am] getting through
There [D] comes a point when you're [Dm] not sure
Why you're [G] still talking
That's [C] that point long ago
Long ago
[F] I'm so [C] tired of all this [G] circling
And [Ab] all these whimpses [Am] of the end
You [C] know it's useless [F] to pretend
There's no noise to [C] see
You'll go [Am] right on [D] circling
Until [F] you find some [G] kind of friend
[C] Well I saw you through the laughter [F] and the [C] noise
You were talking with the soldiers and the boys
While they scuffled [G] through your weary [F] smile
I thought of [C] all the empty [G] miles
And the years [E] that I spent looking for [Am] your [C] eyes
Looking [F] for your eyes
Now I'm sitting [C] here wondering what to say
That you [F] might recognize
Afraid that all [C] these words might scare you away
And break [F] through the disguise
[Gb] I know I'm talking [C] about your feelings [Am] anyway
[D] Without addressing [F] them in dreams and [G] laughter
I guess it's just [C] too painful otherwise
It's
[F] [C]
[Dm] [C] [F] [C]
[F] [D] [C]
[Am] [Dm] [C] [G]
[E] like you're standing in [G] a window
[Am] In a house [C] nobody lives in
[F] And I'm sitting in the car across [C] the way
[G]
Let's [F] just say
An early [C] morning Chevrolet
Let's [F] just say
A warm [C] and windy day
You [Am] [E] unpack your sorrow
[C] The trashman [Am] comes tomorrow
[F] Leave it at the curb
[C] And we'll just [G] roll [C] away
