D Gm7 Csus2 Gm7 honestly... I don't know why D Gm7 Csus2 All my friends got flowers in their eyes Gm7 D Gm7 Csus2 Gm7 But I got none this season D Gm7 Csus2 All of last year's blooms have gone and died Gm7 D Gm7 Csus2 Gm7 Time doesn't give a reason (Same chords here) well hey maybe you ask yourself Sometimes what you need to be forgiven Everything that you ever done wrong Is the reason that I'm driven Straight to tears CHORUS: F#m - G - A F#m - G - A x2 F#m - G - A Csus2 Waiting here for you Wanting to tell you How I get me ends and my beginnings mixed up, too Just the way you do I thought if I told you You might want to stay for just another day or two same D - GM7 - Csus2 - GM7 progression It's just like answers that come in small packages that go in the mail Waiting for the trains that just never come Beginning to believe in The disappearing nature of the people we have been We have begun to change Into the worst kind of people So what kind of apology No apologies This apology doesn't describe The way it feels to feel for you CHORUS: F#m - G - A F#m - G - A x2 F#m - G - A C Waiting here for you Wanting to tell you How I find myself slowly disappearing, too Just the way you do I thought if I told you You might want to help me to remain with you same D - GM7 - Csus2 - GM7 progression I just wanna stay for a little while I wanna stay a little while Oh, come on (4 times) Cause there's a night light just falling down on me I just feel like a change But if the southern summer sea of flowers Won't bloom without the rain But oh this desert life This high life Here at the dying of the day I wasn't made for the scene, baby But I wasn't made in this scene, baby It's just my way I don't wanna go home alone I wanna come on home to you CHORUS: F#m - G - A F#m - G - A x2 F#m - G - A C Waiting here for you Wanting to tell you How I line my sky with all the silver I can get Just the way you do I thought if I told you You might want to stay for just another day or two same D - GM7 - Csus2 - GM7 progression (whispering-like) Isn't that just like disappearing into the sum of yourself and the person you are disappearing into it's like one plus one equals nothing at all one plus two equals nothing at all one plus me equals nothing at all one plus you equals one plus you equals you equals you and you and you and nothing at all (repeated 10 times)
