        Bm (x24432@1)    A (x02220@1)     EAnd (022100@1)you want to hold it near
              A (x02220@1)       EBut (022100@1)you know you can't keep it
D (xx0232@1)          Edim (3423xx@1)     BmSay (x24432@1)a little should suffice
A (x02220@1)             G (320003@1)        G/F# (320002@1)    Em (022000@1)   ABut (x02220@1)more than a little of you is so nice

           Bm (x24432@1)     A (x02220@1)        ENot (022100@1)when I need it (not when I need it)
       D (xx0232@1)             AWell (x02220@1)I find it all the time
                D (xx0232@1)      ABut (x02220@1)Not when I need it

No two days are quite the same
I look at me life I really can't complain
And you come so easily

-bridge-

Bm (x24432@1)          A (x02220@1)     GThe (320003@1)feeling's getting out of hand
Bm (x24432@1)        A (x02220@1)      EBut (022100@1)I can't have you on demand
G (320003@1)                  AI (x02220@1)can hang onto a dream
D (xx0232@1)      Edim (3423xx@1)     Bm (x24432@1)(solo over verse chords)
But I can't hold it


-verse (chords as before)-

Late at night I'm filled with fear
That I can't take for granted that you'll
Always be near
And it makes me hate myself


-chorus-
