Capo third

G Em D C

D                                            Em
I wanted to write you something dignified and pretty
D                                          Em
With a good structure, maybe a little bit witty
Em                                D
 I?d love perfect metaphors and imagery
D                                    Em
But those things don't come easily to me

         G                       Em
Not like you, your face fills my mind
                 C                         D
But not all the time, I have other things I need
            G                     Em      
Because it's time to work and I know you do
                  C             D
You intend to succeed, I am pleased

G Em D C

D                  Em
Some nights I don?t sleep til way past 4
D                        Em
And it?s bugging me for sure
Em                        D
So this is what I do I write a love song
            Em
That doesn?t love

      G                  Em
Not like you, your face fills my mind
            C            D
But not all the time, I have other things I need
G                  Em      
Because it's time to work and I know you do
C            D
You intend to succeed, I am pleased

Em                        G
Hold my hand one last time
D
Tell me it?ll be okay
C
Tell me it?ll be okay
Em                        G
Call out one last time
D
I promise it?s okay
C
I promise it?s okay

      G            Em
Not like me, my heart is gone
      C            D
I put the last part in this song
      G            Em
And you?ll move on with every dawn 
      C            D
While I am here and disappear
      G            Em 
But that?s my choice, I?ve never said
      C            D
But I am much better off instead
      G                  Em
Not like you, you have this song now
            C            D
It?s yours to keep, I have other things I need
G                  Em      
Because it's time to work and I know you do
C            D
You intend to succeed, I am pleased
