Intro Chords: C G F G


C
Well it's important I'm reminded
sitting home alone in silence
G
then you came to make things better
started with this stormy weather
F
but I don't find myself deserving
and when I do its so unnerving
think I'll wait just as expected
G
wait for you to clear this mess up

C
The silence helps
instead of talking
G
the quiet walls are more help
F                                         G
than a friend could be 'cause they can't see the things I see

C
Things have got a chance to get much better
G
all I've got to do is go forget her
F
throw away all of my thoughts inside me
                           G
but after all what kind of life would that be

C
Things have got a chance to get much better
G
all I've got to do is go forget her
F
throw away all of my thoughts inside me
                           G
but after all what kind of life would that be

C
Another day of people calling
another day of me ignoring
G
I just can't stand the pointless calls
they drive me up and down the walls
F
I'm searching for the strength to eat
I'd rather drink fall off my seat
now there's a feeling hard to beat
G
I told you that my life's complete

C
Now here's a picture I always see
I see her hand in hand with me
G
and guess who's in there when I dream
of course it's always me and
F
there comes a point in someones life
when it's the time to take a dive
image stands, forever shines
G
I'm glad to say that she is mine

C
Things have got a chance to get much better
G
all I've got to do is go forget her
F
throw away all of my thoughts inside me
                           G
but after all what kind of life would that be

C
Things have got a chance to get much better
G
all I've got to do is go forget her
F
throw away all of my thoughts inside me
                           G
but after all what kind of life would that be

C
Things have got a chance to get much better
G
all I've got to do is go forget her
F
throw away all of my thoughts inside me
                           G
but after all what kind of life would that be
