Everything is quiet since youre not around
D5                  G5
And I live in the numbness

I do the things we did before
D5                            G5
I walk haight street to the store
             D5   
And they say wheres that crazy girl
                    G5
You dont get drunk on red wine and fight no more
D5                  G5
I dont see you anymore since the hospital

     A5
The plans I make still have you in them
       B5       A5               D5
Cause you come swimming into view
                        B5
And Im hanging on your words
        A5             D5
Like I always used to do
                       B5
The words they use so lightly
   A5              D5
I only feel for you
                     B5           G5
I only know because I carry you around

Words they come and memories all repeat
D5                                          G5
I lift your head while they change the hospital sheets
  D5        
And I would never lie to you no
G5
I would never lie to you no
D5                               G5
I felt you long after we were through, we were through

     A5
The plans I make still have you in them
       B5       A5               D5
Cause you come swimming into view
