VERSE 1:

C            E              Am
Something is wrong with the sum of us
F                     C     G
That I can't seem to erase
C         E      Am
How can I be the only one
F                     C          G
Without a smile on my face, well now


CHORUS:

                   F
You're lauging out loud
            G                Am
At just the thought of being alive
          F
And I was wondering
        G             C
Could I just be you tonight


INTRO (x1)


VERSE 2:

C             E            Am
You show your pain like it really hurts
F                              C     G
And I can't even start to feel mine
C                    E
Well I'm standing in place
        Am     
With my head first I shake, I shake
F                                         C          G
And I see your progress stretched out for miles, and miles


CHORUS:

                       F
And you're lauging out loud
            G                Am
At just the thought of being alive
          F
And I was wondering
        G             C
Could I just be you tonight


BRIDGE:

            E     Am
This is the sound that I make
F             E       Am
These are the words I chose
F           E     Am    
Somehow the right thing to say
F
Just won't come out
F
Just won't come out


CHORUS:

F                       F
And you're laughing out loud
       G                Am
At the thought of being alive
          F
And I was wondering
        G           Am
Could I just be you tonight
          F
And I was wondering
        G           C
Could I just be you tonight
