C9  G  Em7  D C9  G  D


C9         G       Em7           D
Laughs in the mirror, cries now and then
C9          G           D
Ten miles from home in the rain
C9         G            Em7         D
She'd like to call him but he's always gone
     Ca99       G             D
He's fallen for something and not someone

C9           G        Em7        D
Dreams are like driving, hope is surreal
C9          G              D
Each time they kiss she knows just how he feels
         C9             G              Em7         D
Not even close to what she wanted, reciprocation's forgone 
    C9           G             D
And she's left with sounds on the road


Chorus:
Em7       G
Roses are black
C9     D         Em7         G         D
Loving is dying for someone who doesn't deserve
Em7         G
Finders are keepers
    C9        D            Em7    Em/F#  G
But losing would bring her to you
             Em7  Em/F#   G  
Bring her to you


Addicted to comfort with a heart that's been hewn
While the noise from the TV fights its way through her room
It's what quitting is to cancer you've got answers in spades
But you go with what's easy 'cause it makes you feel safe


Chorus



     Em7                      D                          C9 
Some seats are still open but your glass is half full my dear
Em7             C                     C9
Leaving is easy once you've decided to listen to what we both hear

Chorus
