EmIt's (022000@1)not surprising it could end like this
DYour (xx0232@1)eyes are open even when you kiss
           G- (320003@1)CYou're (x32010@1)so distant
              G- (320003@1)C (x32010@1)   DSo (xx0232@1)cold, so resistant
EmYou (022000@1)see the world in only grey and black
DNow (xx0232@1)how could anybody live like that
         G- (320003@1)C (x32010@1)               
Without screaming
                    G- (320003@1)C (x32010@1)  DWithout (xx0232@1)dying for dreaming
          C (x32010@1)And you stare out the window at the passing cars
         D (xx0232@1)
And you look at the sky, thank your unlucky stars
            CNo (x32010@1)you're never quite happy right where you are
        GSo (320003@1)you keep on
            DInventing (xx0232@1)shadows
            EmWhere (022000@1)there are none
           CNo, (x32010@1)there are none
           GYeah, (320003@1)you keep on
            DInventing (xx0232@1)shadows
            EmWhere (022000@1)there are none
                CYou (x32010@1)don't even see the sun

Can't you see the sun?
EmYou (022000@1)can't be shocked that I might want to leave
DThe (xx0232@1)way you're living's like you're half asleep
          G (320003@1)  CYou (x32010@1)just drain me
                  G (320003@1)   C (x32010@1)   DIf (xx0232@1)I go who could blame me?
          C (x32010@1)And you stare out the window at the passing cars
         D (xx0232@1)
And you look at the sky, thank your unlucky stars
           CNo (x32010@1)you're never quite happy right where you are
  Dright (xx0232@1)where you are, with all that you are

      G (320003@1)          DSo (xx0232@1)flawless in my eyes
Em (022000@1)                CDon't (x32010@1)you know the world shines
G (320003@1)             DEvery (xx0232@1)time you smile
