We said goodbye. Tried her hand at magic.

     [ A ]            [ D ]         [ G ]
But we couldn't make us disappear.

      [ A ]         [ D ]      [ A ]          [ D ]
Not a day goes by I don't wish I had you.

So in a way, I'm glad you're still here.

It's a bitter sweet victory.

  [ G ]                    [ A ]          
Lovin' the ghost in front of me.

    [ D ]     [ A ]            [ G ]          [ A ]
Now I-------- can't laugh, can't cry.

    [ D ]                 [ A ]           [ G ]    [ A ]  
And I-------- can't run, can't hide.

What do I gotta do?

What do I gotta do to keep you?

What do I gotta do to keep you from doing this to me?

    [ A ]                [ D ]
I wrote a couple of notes.

One in love, one in anger.

          [ A ]           [ D ]                    [ G ]
They're lying there dying in the dresser drawer.

         [ A ]            [ D ]  
Lived louder than my voice. 

   [ A ]                  [ D ]
Struggled through a stranger.

     [ A ]                [ D ]              [ G ]
He loved me until I loved you even more.

It's a bitter sweet victory.

  [ G ]                    [ A ]
knowing someone else wanted me.

And I-------- can't run, can't hide.





Bridge:

         [ Bm ]                     [ A ]
You get used to the pain, and numb to the sting

                 [ G ]
Till you can't feel anything.



3rd Verse:

      [ A ]         [ D ]         
You tried to explain 

    [ A ]           [ D ]
but I couldn't hear it.

    [ A ]        [ D ]             [ G ]
As if your words were my tears.

   [ A ]      [ D ]       [ A ]        [ D ]
Flowing freely, warm and quiet.

           [ A ]          [ D ]          [ G ]
From the edges of my eyes and my ears.

                 [ A ]
Then all that disappears.






Chorus:


    [ D ]     [ A ]            [ G ]           [ A ]
Now I-------- can't laugh, can't cry.

And I-------- can't run, can't hide.

And I-------- can't run, can't hide.

  [ A ]              [ D ]
What do I gotta do?

  [ A ]              [ D ] 
What do I gotta do to keep you?

[ Bm ]               [ A ]                    [ G ]
What do I gotta do to keep you from doing this to me?
