Em
It's not surprising it could end like this
D
Your eyes are open even when you kiss
           G - C
You're so distant
              G - C     D
So cold, so resistant
Em
You see the world in only grey and black
D
Now how could anybody live like that
         G - C                 
Without screaming
                    G - C    D
Without dying for dreaming
          C 
And you stare out the window at the passing cars
         D  
And you look at the sky, thank your unlucky stars
            C
No you're never quite happy right where you are
        G
So you keep on
            D
Inventing shadows
            Em
Where there are none
           C
No, there are none
           G
Yeah, you keep on
            D
Inventing shadows
            Em
Where there are none
                C
You don't even see the sun

Can't you see the sun?
Em
You can't be shocked that I might want to leave
D
The way you're living's like you're half asleep
          G    C
You just drain me
                  G     C     D
If I go who could blame me?
          C 
And you stare out the window at the passing cars
         D  
And you look at the sky, thank your unlucky stars
           C
No you're never quite happy right where you are
  D
right where you are, with all that you are
        G
So you keep on
            D
Inventing shadows
            Em
Where there are none
           C
No, there are none
          G
Yeah, you keep on
            D
Inventing shadows
             Em
Where there are none
                C
You don't even see the sun

Can't you see the sun?
Em                     C
You're so young, so beautiful
      G            D
So flawless in my eyes
Em                  C
Don't you know the world shines
G               D
Every time you smile

Why can't you just smile?
       C
So you keep on
            G
Inventing shadows
             Am
Where there are none
           F
No, there are none
           C
Yeah, you keep on
             G
Inventing shadows
            Am
Where there are none
               F
You don't even see the sun

Can't you see the sun?
Am
You dim the lights in the world I see
G
How I wish that I could still believe
         C    F
Time to save me
                   C    F
If I go who could blame me
