Intro
NONE
VERSE:
C#
it's turning on MTV
G#
when we were fourteen
F#
you said, "my moms asleep,
C#
we won't get caught.
G#
what do you want to watch?"
C#
and i could hear the traffic
G#
that i know you're ignoring
F#
but i let it into my life
C# G#
to thicken to air i breathe
VERSE:
C#
it was at the bus stop that a woman cried
G#
and i could tell she was different by the look in her eyes
F#
and i don't know what she said
C# G#
but i felt what she meant in her honesty
C#
and i went to your house that night
G#
and i told you about the woman's eyes
and the words in her mouth
F# C# G#
and how i wouldn't mind taking her advice one day
C# G# F# G#
but i'm the cowardly lion
VERSE:
C#
i'll leave quietly
G#
if that means
F# C#
a better chance to commemorate what we had
G#
when we were happy
BREAK:
C#
this isn't a love song, no not in the least
G#
i just miss you watching my tv
F#
when i'm writing,
G#
so i can hear you laughing
C#
i swear to god i still hear you
when i close my eyes
G#
and you'd tell me
i'm not going to die
F#
like you used to
G#
before i did this
CHORUS:
C#
you're the sunlight
that i wished would leave
G#
i'm the raincloud
i don't wanna be
F#
because the more you're gone
G#
the more i grow pale
C# G# F# G#
i grow pale
CHORUS:
C#
you're the sunlight
that i wished would leave
G#
i'm the raincloud
i don't wanna be
F#
because the more you're gone
G#
the more i grow pale
C#
i grow pale
spoken:
It sped up a little bit....well
