    Em                  E7
I'm always assuming the worst
                             Am
but you're going on none the less
                                    Am    C#m Am Am
and there's nothing to chusion your heart led fall.
Letters from further away
keep pulling me close to home
and there's something to cushion my callous sighs.
And I know that you hope for
longer good-byes
embracing for forever
and falling in your eyes
in your eyes
in your eyes

[chorus]
Em       Bm        C#m
Pouring over photographs
Em                 Bm
I'm living in your letters.
Em                       Bm
Breathe deeply from this envelope
                       C#m
it smells like you and I can't be
    Am
without that scent, it's filling me
     Em  Bm  C#m     Am
with all you mean toooo me
...to me

[verse]
Continually failing these trials
but you stand by me nonetheless
and you won't let me sink
though I'm beggin you.
Phone calls from further away
and messages on my machine,
but I don't ever tell you this distance
seems terrible.
There is no need to test my heart,
with useless space.
These roads go on forever
there'll always be a place,
for you, in my heart.
