Tom: A5

Intro:  A5  D5   A5  D5 

 A5             D5     
Motel, sitting in the dark, 
A5                   D5 
 empty room like an empty heart 
F#5                    D5
 Lovers stop but they never stay 
F#5                              D5  
  They don't look back as they drive away 
 A5    D5
Maybe I... 
        A5               D5
Should fix this broken neon light 
F#5                       D5
  Fill in the cracks and paint it bright 
F#5                          D5
  Then maybe love will stop here tonight 
A5                         D5
 And if she knocks on my door 
                   A5
I'll give her the key 
                     D5                     F#5
Just one look in her eyes and I know I'll be 
       E5             D5
Everything that she sees in me 
F#5           E5            D5   
  More than I ever thought I could be but... 

CHORUS: 
  A5            D5
These are the days 
       A5                      F#5
When I all that I can do is dream 
    G5                      D5                      
But I don't wanna spend forever 
 A5                   E5
Living in the in between 
      A5                       D5
I'm stuck here in a place without love 
       A5                           F#5 
And I just can't let it stay this way 
         G5                     D5
But for now I'm gonna have to face it 
  A5   E5        A5    D5    A5   D5  
These are the days  
A5                 D5 
I gotta use this lonely time 
A5                             D5
To change the picture in my frame of mind 
    F#5                       D5
Outside the window there's a sunny day 
         F#5    D5 
I wanna feel it on my face 
 A5      D5        
You and I... 
A5                               D5 
We're out here looking for the same thing 
F#5                 D5
 An end to all the wondering 
F#5                       D5
 Waiting for someone to share this feeling 
A5                         D5
 And if she knocks on my door 
                   A5
I'll give her the key 
                     D5                     F#5
Just one look in her eyes and I know I'll be 
       E5             D5
Everything that she sees in me 
F#5           E5            D5   
  More than I ever thought I could be but...
 
CHORUS: 
  A5            D5
These are the days 
       A5                      F#5

 A5                   E5

These are the days  
                                 E5         A5
These are the days between your hopes and fears 
                                 E5       A5
These are the moments that are still unclear 
B5                                 D5
 When it's still uncertain if she will appear 
     D5
But like it or not 
          E5
This is what I got
