Verse:
G5                       Bm11
i can't explain it i'm afraid of noise

A5                   C5
and all this time still afraid of boys

G5         
it's in the winter

Bm11
it's in my head

A5
well don't look now

C5
i think it's under my bed


Chorus:
       G5                    Bm11
and we drop drop tears like tallymarks

      A5                   C5
and it builds like snow and it keeps us apart

      G5                    Bm11
and i drop drop tears like tallymarks

      A5               C5
and i'm keeping score so i keep us apart

B5           A5                      G5
but i think i might miss you enough to say so

  B5      A5   G5
and i think i already did

      B5      A5                      G5
well i think i might miss you enough to say so

B5        A5              G5
there you go i just said it again

that same winter my old man made tracks
and i did too but i came back
so don't don't don't explain love to me
love love love is not why we leave
it is real life dreams, make-believe people
you can't build cathedrals out of finger steeples

and we drop drop tears like tallymarks
and it builds like snow and it keeps us apart
and i drop drop tears like tallymarks
and i'm keeping score so i keep us apart

but i think i might miss you enough to say so
and i think i already did
well i think i might miss you enough to say so
there you go i just said it again
there you go i just said it again

G5         Bm11             A5    C5
steady on steady on steady on my mind
steady on my mind
steady on steady on steady on my mind
steady on my mind
surely surely i
surely surely i want love just as bad as the next
but deeper down in my, deeper down in my bones
is where it sets
