    Who We Are Instead

Capo 1st fret

[INT] -> A5 , E5

A5
I'm a fair weather friend
      E5                      A5             E5
I'm a colorless view but I'm willin' to make a deal
       A5                   E5
If you think you can make some faith here inside
     A5               E5
I'll drive off and marry you


( E5 , A5 , B5 , C#5 )= 
One strum per chord

Chorus:                                  
( E5 , A5 , B5 , C#5 ) A5 , E5                                      
I'm only alive with you
( E5 , A5 , B5 , C#5 )      A5     B5
I can't get by and I won't get through
                 C#5         A5    E5
So put me in the river and let me say I do
( E5 , A5 , B5 , C#5 ) A5 , E5
I'm only alive with you

You're a sight for sore eyes and a newborn cry
In a year where there are so few
If you throw me a line, I'll show you in time
I'm fallin' in love with you

Though my heart has been torn by loves I have worn
And I'm tempted by them ever still
I tremble inside when you walk in the room
You hold my affections and will
