[A]For all the good you say [A9/F#] it does
[Bm9]It seems no [Bm9/A]better when you've [G]had your say
[A]You may believe it's [F#m9]just because
[Bm9]The words get [Bm9/A]colder when you've [G]gone away[GM7]
[F#9]I thought I understood
What I was to [Bm7b6] you.
Bridge
I[D] don't want to feel this way
[C#m9]I don't want to say I'm just a friend
[C9/G]I don't want to wait around here
[Bm9]'Cos you don't want to feel no pain again
[F#/A#]We just lie about it
[F#9]As we become shadows of [G]ourselves.
[A]Some may fear [A9/F#] committed lives,
[Bm9]I sure am [Bm9/A]one of them without [G]you.
[A]Does it come to you as [F#m9]some surprise?
[Bm9]I laid the [Bm9/A]ground beneath to [G]doubt you[GM7]
[F#9]Was it ever girl,
Something you could [Bm7b6] hold?
(Repeat Bridge)
[D]I don't want to look away
[C#m9]I don't want to be the one denied
[C9/G]It ain't no fault of mine
[Bm9]Someone, somewhere told you lies
[F#/A#]But we don't talk about it,
[F#9]We just become shadows of [G]ourselves.
[F#9]But we don't talk about it
We just become shadows of ourselves
Interlude: F#9/E—-Bm/D—-C#7/G#--
Ahh… Ahh… Ahh…
(Repeat Bridge)
[D]I don't want to look away
[C#m9]I don't want to be the one denied
[C9/G]It ain't no fault of mine
[Bm9]Someone, somewhere told you lies
[F#/A#]But we don't talk about it,
[F#9]We just become shadows of [G]ourselves.
