G                            D
Time to tell me the truth
                         Am
To burden your mouth for what you say
                    C
No pieces of paper in the way
            G                                         D
Cause i cant continue pretending to choose 
                         Am
These opposite sides on which we fall
                         C
The loving you laters if at all
D                                C
No right minds could wrong be this many times

G                   D
My memory is cruel
                   Am
Im queen of attention to details
                 C
Defending intentions if he fails
G                                    D
Until now, he told me her name
                Am
It sounded familiar in a way
                     C 
I could have sworn i'd heard him say it 
                     D
ten thousand times
          C
If only i had been listening

G                       C
Leave unsaid unspoken
G                      C
Eyes wide shut unopened
D
You and me
C                           G
Always between the lines
                    D        Am    C
Between the lines

[repeat chords for verse ( G D Am C ) and chorus ( G C D C G )]

I thought i thought i was ready to bleed
That we'd move from the shadows on the wall
And stand in the center of it all
Too late two choices to stay or to leave

Mine was so easy to uncover
He'd already left with the other
So i've learned to listen through silence

Leave unsaid unspoken
Eyes wide shut unopened
You and me be
You and me always be

Am              D
I tell myself all the words he surely meant to say
Am                  C
I'll talk until the conversation doesn't stay on
D                  Am
Wait for me i'm almost ready
D                         C
When he meant let go

Leave unsaid unspoken
Eyes wide shut unopened
You and me
Always be
You and me
Always between the lines
