[E] So today I wrote a song [A] for you, cause a day can get [E] so long
And I know it's hard to make it [A] through when you say [E] something wrong
So I'm trying to put it right, cause I want to love you with my heart
All this trying has made me tired and I don't know even where to start
Maybe that's a start
For you know it's a simple game that you play, filling up your head with rain
And you know you've been hiding from your pain in the way, in the way you say your name
And I see [C#m] you, [B] hiding your face in [A] your hands
Flying [C#m]
[B] so you [A] won't land,
[C#m] you [E] think no [B] one [A#m] understands,
[A]
no one [E] understands
[C#m]
[E]
So you hunch your shoulders and you shake your head and your throat is aching but you swear
No one hurts you, nothing could be said anyway, you're not here enough to care
And you're so tired, you don't sleep at [A] night as your heart [E] is trundling now
And you keep it quiet, but you think you [A] might [E]
disappear before the end
[A]
[E] And it's strange how you cannot [A] find any strength to even [E] try to find a voice to speak your [A] mind
When you do, [E] all you wanna do is cry,
[A]
[E] maybe you should cry
[C#m]
And I see you, [B] hiding your face in [A] your hands
[C#m]
Talking [E] about far [A] away, you [C#m] think [B] no one [A#m] understands, [A] no one understands
Listen to [E] my hands
[A] And [E] [A]
[E]
[A]
[B] all of [A] this life [B] moves [A] around you, [B]
for all that [A] you play,
[B] you're standing [A] still
You and me [E] ain't tough, [A]
you and me [E] ain't tough, [A] [C#m]
[E] you and me ain't tough
[F#m]
[A] I will move [E] with you
