Capo 1st fret
Standard (EADGBE)
I've got eyes in the back of my head and I
see where you're going with this (going with this)
I'm not surprised
you take me for a fool, maybe you're right
if I was wiser I would not have let myself come here tonight
you sold yourself, you never learn
and here I am watching the summer we shared fade away with the winter
hands were warm on my face
now they're cold, pushing away
they're colder than ice and they are slowly pushing me away
pushing me away...
I knew it (I knew it)
right from the start
I've got this big, big hole in my heart
I wanted (I wanted)
to put you in
but for some reason you just wouldn't fit
......you just wouldn't fit
you sold yourself, you never learn
and here I am watching the summer we shared fade away with the winter
hands were warm on my face
now they're cold, pushing away
they're colder than ice and they are slowly pushing me away
pushing me away
pushing me away
lust can give a man so many regrets
just this once is what we tell ourselves
ships don't sink if they have wind in their sails
but if the wind fails is there hope for me?
I thought your love was as safe as the promise you made
now I am drowning in your shallow sea I swear
you are the waves that toss me away
how can I float above the water that fills my lungs
killing me softly without a word?
