A                          A9/F#
For all the good you say      it does
Bm9           Bm9/A              G
It seems no better when you've had your say
A                      F#m9
You may believe it's just because
Bm9            Bm9/A              G          GM7
The words get colder when you've  gone away
F#9
I thought I understood
              Bm7b6
What I was to      you.


Bridge:

 D
I don't want to feel this way
C#m9
I don't want to say I'm just a friend
C9/G
I don't want to wait around here
Bm9
'Cos you don't want to feel no pain again
F#/A#
We just lie about it
F#9                           G
As we become shadows of ourselves.


A              A9/F#
Some may fear      committed lives,
Bm9        Bm9/A                G
I sure am one  of them without  you.
A                       F#m9
Does it come to you as some surprise?
Bm9          Bm9/A            G           GM7
I laid the ground beneath to  doubt you
F#9
Was it ever girl,
                    Bm7b6
Something you could      hold?


(Repeat Bridge)


D
I don't want to look away
C#m9
I don't want to be the one denied
C9/G
It ain't no fault of mine
Bm9
Someone, somewhere told you lies
F#/A#
But we don't talk about it,
F#9                            G
We just become shadows of ourselves.
F#9
But we don't talk about it,

We just become shadows of ourselves...



Interlude: F#9/E?-Bm/D?-C#7/G#--
           Ahh?  Ahh?   Ahh?


(Repeat Bridge)


D
I don't want to look away
C#m9
I don't want to be the one denied
C9/G
It ain't no fault of mine
Bm9
Someone, somewhere told you lies
F#/A#
But we don't talk about it,
F#9                            G
We just become shadows of ourselves.
