A5 E5 Oh elise it doesn't matter what you say F#5 I just can't stay here every yesterday D5 like keep on acting out the same the way we act out A5 every way to smile forget E5 and make-believe we never needed F#5 any more than this D5 any more than this A5 E5 oh elise it doesn't matter what you do F#5 I know i'll never really get inside of you D5 to make your eyes catch fire the way they should A5 the way the blue could pull me in E5 if they only would if they only would F#5 D5 at least I'd lose this sense of sensing something else that hides away A5 from me and you there're worlds to part E5 with aching looks and breaking hearts F#5 and all the prayers your hands can make D5 oh I just take as much as you can throw A5 and then I throw it all away E5 oh I throw it all away F#5 like throwing faces at the sky D5 like throwing arms around E5 yesterday I stood and stared F#5 wide-eyed in front of you E5 and the face I saw looked back F#5 the way I wanted to E5 but I just can't hold my tears away F#5 the way you do G5 F#5 elise believe I never wanted this G5 F#5 I thought this time I'd keep all of my promises G5 F#5 I thought you were the girl always dreamed about B5 but I let the dream go D5 and the promises broke A5 and the make-believe ran out... A5 so elise E5 it doesn't matter what you say F#5 I just can't stay here every yesterday D5 like keep on acting out the same the way we act out A5 every way to smile forget E5 and make-believe we never needed F#5 any more than this D5 any more than this A5 E5 and every time I try to pick it up like falling sand F#5 as fast as I pick it up D5 it runs away through my clutching hands A5 and there's nothing else I can really do E5 there's nothing else I can really do F#5 there's nothing else I can really do D5 at all...
