A9
Three sleepless nights,
                  C#m
this isn't how its supposed to be.

But you are so good at
A9                                            C#m                F#m                  
taking your time to get back to me.

C#m                      B
I will wait for you forever,
    A                     F#m
if you would just ask me.
C#m                           B               
I thought that I could change you
A            F#m          E (one down strum)
but you changed me.

A9
But it doesn't feel right,
C#m
holding someone else's hand.
                    A9
Together on phone lines
                    C#m             F#m      
and living at two opposite ends.

C#m
It scares me to think,
B                                       A
that you could find takers other than me
       F#m
and better than me.
C#m
But you're head is elsewhere,
             B
and I’m talking enough for both of us.
A                                F#m
When will you see it's not so easy for me

      C#m                       E   
But You’re careless, and whispered, 
A9
insulting, and bruising.
C#m                      E
And I thought that you said
A9
things were improving.
C#m                 E
These laces are untied,
A9
but my feet are still walking away.
(I fall from you eyes, your eyes I trusted, you said forever)

E                               C#m
I never thought that you could say these words.
A9
Is this really happening?
E                               C#m
I never thought that you could say these words.
(Don't say...)
A9
Is this really happening?
E                              C#m
I never thought that you could say these words.
(Don't say that we can...)
A9
Is this really happening?
E                               C#m
I never thought that you could say these words.
(Don't say that we can still be...)
A9
Is this really happening?
E                               C#m
I never thought that you could say these words.
A9
Is this really happening?
(Don't say that we can still be friends)

C#m
Erase my name from this page.
                     A                   F#m
How can you take all these days
                                  
(What is inside of me, what have I done?)
       C#m            E
and throw them away
(Is this the only way that you will notice me?)
A                F#m            C#m 
as I sit here waiting for you (for you)
(Dead words for closed ears all this is sung for you)
A            F#m
I stay up nights
(If you are still pretending this is what's right)
C#m           E
until stars leave the sky
(Why cant you look at me can you only see?)
A                    F#m             C#m (till end)
knowing what my dreams can take away
(Sides, your side, can take away)
Walk away from me.
This night is done
C#m B A
