C Bb/C
Without you, I no longer swim upstream.
F/A
Where are you when I try to fill
Ab7
the spaces in between?
C
The red letter days
Bb/C
and all the pain,
F/A
And while I remain shipwrecked
Ab7
everything has changed.
C
And I fall apart
E/B
with this threat of indecision hanging in my heart.
Am D/F#
This house can get so lonely when the day grows dark.
F Ab G7
And it seems to be the nighttime when I fall apart.
C
Can't you tell the shadows
Bb/C
no longer comfort me?
F/A
I don't feel the need to cling to
Ab7
anyone I see.
C
This fool's suffered gladly
Bb/C
each and every day.
F/A
I don't wish to reconsider,
Ab7
I wish they'd stay away.
C
And I fall apart
E/B
with this threat of indecision hanging in my heart.
Am D/F#
This house can get so lonely when the day grows dark.
F Ab G7
And it seems to be the nighttime when I fall apart.
Ab
I've no care to count
Db/Ab
the stares that pity me.
Ab/Eb
I'll wash your hurt away
Gb
just you wait and see.
Fdim
For every rose you give her
Bdim
I'll give her three.
F Ab G
But in the meantime I'll just wish that she was me.
C
And I fall apart
E/B
with this threat of indecision hanging in my heart.
Am D/F#
This house can get so lonely when the day grows dark.
F Ab G7
And it seems to be the nighttime when I fall apart.
