Intro:

C  Am  Em  F  Dm  G  X2

      C                  Am              Em
The Distance that distance can make

          F                Dm           G
those  voices keep talking away

       C               Am                Em
I confess about this I'm not the same

       F                  Dm                      G
But these edges don't seem quite as frayed



    Dm                          F
That night I cried next to you

    C                                 Em
I didn't mean to make you worry

        Dm                                       F
What my disturbing conscience can do

        C                                   Em
>From you, I withdrew, and I'm sorry

    Dm                   Fm
I'll live with with this, but slowly



C  Am  Em  F  Dm  G  X2

    C              Am          Em
I swear that I knew you well

                 F                 Dm         G
There were nights that I cried like hell

                     C                          Am        Em
I never said a word but you could pobably tell

                        F                      Dm           G
That words you left out were the ones that I felt

    Dm                          F
That night I cried next to you

    C                                 Em
I didn't mean to make you worry

        Dm                                       F
What my disturbing conscience can do

        C                                   Em
>From you, I withdrew, and I'm sorry

    Dm                   F    Fm
I'll live with with this, but slowly

Slowly

 Bm                A        D
You have my favorite face

             G         Bm
And my favorite smile

                  A          D
There is my favorite place

                     G         Bm
These are my favorite times
