D
You have your own life I know, but show up you should
G
I'm disappointed, my vision blurs alone on the curb
D
Eight weeks since and it's still the same
G D
"Something just came up, I'm so sorry"
Riff 1 D
And maybe I've got needs that you can't cure
D
But I'm waiting by the phone until I'm sure
D
Love like statistics, I've got a head full of hell alone in my thoughts
G
Kill the subject; refine the joke, which ever prompts response
D
In the moments you laugh it's still not enough
G D
You miss me, you can't mean that
Riff 1 D
And maybe you've got needs that I can't cure
Riff 1 D
We sleep in separate houses
G
A Guarded head shapes the face and heart
Em
So loss ain't bad
G
I'm trading processing for sleep
Em D
So it don't seem sad that I'm losing you
D
Blotch the face, blood vessels
G
Broken heart and canvas skin
D
Write it all out you won't ever quite describe it
G
Loaned to father for weekends and given back without the interest
D
Trivialize memories, dumb it down to make it fit
Syllables, grammatical, read and rewrite for the reader
G
All the bitter nights in my room alone
They won't know all my secret problems
D
Or the love that overcame us both
An untold twenty-two year story
G
So it's one tale and then another, I was saying earlier
G
A Guarded head shapes the face and heart
Em
So loss ain't bad
G
I'm trading processing for sleep
Em
So it don't seem sad that I'm losing you
G Em x2
When are you coming home
end on
D
