Tuning - Standard

Key: A

Truly underappreciated song.  Sadly, I had to make a tab since there was none.  There 
instrumental parts between verses, but I omitted that for practical purposes of playing 
song by yourself.

        A
You can only talk so much about things
         D
that are never, ever going to happen.
   A
My brother?s at home with his dog and his cat
        D            E
and his wife is at a friend?s.
        A
You can only go on so long about feelings
     D
that never, ever actually touch you.
   A
No matter how much she told him ?I love you,?
   D              E
he found it would depend
       Bm                   E    Esus  E
on the gifts that he bought her,
       Bm            E    Esus  E
or how badly she was hurt
         Bm                E    Esus   E
when the boss was cruel at work.
              D                                       E
But he?d just say ?I love you,? and he?d reach out to her.


       A
He was feeling like shit when I came to visit
    D
and walked through the door of his tiny apartment.
   A
We went for a walk through the park by the market
   D                 E
so we could get some air.
      A
And I told to him all things intended to help him,
 D
especially that, simply because it was ending,
     A
that that didn?t mean she was always pretending.
 D                 E
Real happiness was there.
        Bm              E     Esus  E
I could see and I could tell:
       Bm                  E    Esus  E
it was real love that they felt.
        Bm                  E    Esus  E
And I?m sorry it didn?t end well,
         D                                                        E
but some things just don?t - that?s life, and you shouldn?t blame yourself.

    A
And all of these things, well, I truly believe them.
    D
Our paths and our futures are hidden in mists
         A
that are stretching out over impossible distances,
D          E
 totally obscured.
      A
And I really do think that there?s probably more good
     D
than anger or selfishness, sickness, or sadness
      A
would ever completely allow us to have in this
D                 E
life, I think I?m sure.
         Bm                E   Esus  E
But that doesn?t mean it?s bad.
        Bm                  E   Esus  E
We were walking towards our dad,
      Bm                         E   Esus  E
while getting out of that school bus,
            D                                        E     A
and he just said ?I love you,? and he reached out to us
