E (022100@1)I knew a  man who was afraid to love
to lay his heart on the bathroom rug
Ahe (x02220@1)drank his coffee in the same old mug
E (022100@1)and sat in silence 'til the world fell numb
 
Auntil (x02220@1)the day when a girl came by
Eshe (022100@1)had eyes like the rising tide
C#mhe (x13321@4)felt a sharpness deep inside
A (x02220@1)the kind of ache that can't be satisfied

Bm (x24432@1)E (022100@1)we hate the rain when it fills up our shoes
 
A (x02220@1)But how we love when it washes our cars
Ewe (022100@1)love to love when it fills up the room
but when it leaves oh we're cursing the stars

Aso (x02220@1)he turned to the radio
F# (244322@1)              Bmand (x24432@1)he went to a  picture show

        A (x02220@1)                 B (x2444x@1)all the hurt that a heart can hold
she smelled like cinnamon and winter clove
   C#m (x13321@4)     A (x02220@1)                   F#and (244322@1)sparked  like firewood inside a stove
      C#m (x13321@4)             E (022100@1)        Awanted (x02220@1)to ask her just to sit and  stay
                          C#m (x13321@4)    A (x02220@1)instead he watched as she walked away
