[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/r/rent/without_you_crd.html ]
Without you, the stars roar the breeze warms, the girl smiles, the cloud moves.
Without you, the tides change, the boys run, the oceans crash.
The crowds roar, the days soar, the babies cry, without you.
The moon glows, the river flows, but I die, without you.

But I know blue, only blue, lonely blue, within me blue.
Same as intro
MIMI
Without you.
Without you, the hand gropes, the ear hears, the pulse beats.
ROGER
Without you, the eyes gaze, the legs walk, the lungs breathe.
ROGER
The mind churns!
MIMI
The mind churns!
ROGER
The heart yearns!
MIMI
The heart yearns!
BOTH
The tears dry, without you.
Life goes on

Cause I die, without you.

Without you.
