EF#mA
We drank bottled water together and talked business.
B
I think I played the right moves.
EF#m
You were lookin' over my shoulder,
AB
as I went through the motions of another night,
C#B
And it was alright-----,
AEC#BF#mE
'cause I thought I knew who everybody was just by lookin' at them.
EF#mE
My heart is anywhere----- but here,
EF#m
and how tired I was from the past couple of weeks,
From the past couple of years.
AB
Well, it hit me all at once,
E
On a balcony overlooking nothing,
F#m
With snow falling all around,
AB
Well I, I called just to say 'Goodnight'.
C#BAE
And you hadn't done anything wrong,
C#BF#m
And know, really, really, it's me not you.
EF#mE
I can't believe how naive I was to think things could ever be so simple,
EF#m
And can you live with what you know about yourself,
A
When you're all alone, behind closed doors?
B
The things we never said, but we always knew were right there.
E
It's got me on my knees in a bathroom,
F#m
Praying to a God that I don't even believe in,
AB
'Well, dear Jesus, are you listening?
C#BAE
If this is the one chance that really matters,
C#BF#m
Well, don't let me fuck this up.
EF#m
If you'd told me about all this when I was fifteen,
E
I never would have believed it.'
