Intro -x2-: Dm7GDm7GVerse 1:
Dm7G
Your room was square
Dm7G
I once noticed from there
Dm7G
In your bed, as you slept
Dm7G
And I held my breath
Dm7GDm7
Everything had its own place
GDm7Am7
And I wondered what space would I take
DdimC
In the order you kept
Interlude: Dm7GDm7GVerse 2:
Dm7GDm7
I tried to eat like your girlfriend
GDm7Am7
Just tea in the night, I'€™d end up
AbG
Too hungry to sleep
Dm7GDm7GDm7
So lying awake, I would follow the aching inside
Am7
I would find
DdimC
It's for you won'€™t be mine
Chorus:
CDmFAm
I tried my hardest, for I'd never learned
AmFDmC
God€™'s very simple and love shouldn'™t burn
CDmFE
And I would'€™ve offered you all that you yearned for
AmFDmC
But I was still waiting for something to earn
Interlude: CAmFGVerse 2:
CDmEmF
What is that quiet of snow in the night?
GAmG
The dark rings with white noise
FG
As you stand and drown
CDmEmF
Maybe it'€™s all of these snowflakes, screaming
GAmG
a choir of mute
DdimC
As they brace for the ground
Interlude:
CAm
Well that'€™s my ride
CAm
Hope you had a good night
GF
You know, you made me happy
CAm
Here shake my hand
CAm
You make such a good man
GF
Never once did you know me
Chorus:
CDmFAm
I tried my hardest, for how do you learn
AmFDmC
God€'s very simple and love doesn'€™t burn
CDmFE
And maybe you'd offered me all that I yearned for
AmFDmC
But I was still waiting for something to earn
Outro:
AmFDmC
Silly me, waiting
