[C#m] [E] [A] .
[C#m] .
[E] [A] .
[C#m] [E] We're trying, but we're trying [A] no more.
It's cold on the floor, [E] cold on the floor.
[C#m] This [E] house has never been the same as [A] before.
It's never felt warm, [E] never felt [C#m] warm.
There's [E] something moving through the windows [A] and walls.
I've seen it before, [E] seen it before.
[C#m] You [E] left me living with a lingering [A] soul.
How little you know, [E] how little you know.
.
[C#m] [E] We're standing at the foot of [A] the path.
I have to go back, [E] I have to go [C#m] back.
The [E] choice to travel isn't long, [A] even.
So much that I lack, [E] so much that I lack.
[C#m] I'm [E] always wishing I was walking [A] that road.
Something I hope, [E] something I [C#m] hope.
I [E] take it with me all the places [A] I go.
How little you know, [E] how little you know.
.
I only eat to fill me up.
.
I only sleep to rest.
I need a love that's like a gate.
.
I [A] haven't found it yet, found it [E] yet.
.
[C#m] To [E] arrive is where I want it [A] to be.
I know what I [E] need, know what I need.
[C#m] And [E] there are many different places [A] to see.
And know how [E] to dream, know how to dream.
So there's a wound that I'm moving [A] slow.
No it don't [E] show, no it don't show.
[C#m] I've [E] got a hole where nothing [A] grows.
How little you know, [E] how little you know.
.
I only eat to fill me up.
.
I only sleep to rest.
I need a love that's like a gate.
.
I haven't [A] found it yet, found [E] it yet.
.
[C#m] Maybe [E] we marry and we work it [A] out fine.
Some other [E] time, some other time.
[C#m] And we [E] are happy when I'm walking [A] that line.
It's all in my [E] mind, all in my mind.
[C#m] I [E] paint the ceiling so that nobody [A] knows.
I cover it [E] slow, cover it slow.
[C#m] It's [E] like you never even met me [A] before.
How little I [E] show, how little I show.
.
[A] How little I [E] show, how little I show.
.
[A] [E] .
