[INTRO]
G Am D G Am D G
[VERSE]
G Am
I heard that you're moving away
D G Am D Am
Fumbled in my pockets for a final word
C G
And I tell you 'Don't be late'
G
Smile when you tell me you won’t
G Am
Shuffle your feet and you don't
D G Am D Am
Want to read between the air of silence
C G
Then the rain begins
[CHORUS]
D
I don't want to love you
C
I want to learn you
G
But I'd love to know you well
[Riff]
Am D G
[VERSE]
G Am
So long to your family home
D G Am D Am
I wonder if you'll ever get that feeling back?
C G
Your family home
G
Covered my eyes with your hands
G Am
Walked me through all of your plans
D G
I told you I could see it all
Am D Am
But all I saw was you
C G
Through the space in your fingers
[CHORUS]
D
I don't want to love you

I want to learn you
G
But I'd love to know you well

Am D G x3
[VERSE]
G Am
You say all the people you know
D G Am D Am
All are slowly dying from a silent cause
C G
From their quiet desperations
G
I walk you home in the rain
G Am
Pass by the yellow line train
D G
Thought that I was different
Am D Am
When you looked at me
G
But this quiet desperation is
C D
Killing me too
C G
Killing me too
[CHORUS]
D
And I don't want to love you
C
I want to learn you
G
But I'd love to know you well
