[Verse 1]
C F C F
Everything is quiet since youre not around
C F
And I live in the numbness
F C Am G
In the background
C F
I do the things we did before
C F
I walk haight street to the store
C
And they say wheres that crazy girl
F
You dont get drunk on red wine and fight no more
C F
I dont see you anymore since the hospital
[Chorus]
G
The plans I make still have you in them
Am G C
Cause you come swimming into view
Am
And Im hanging on your words
G C
Like I always used to do
Am
The words they use so lightly
G C
I only feel for you
Am F
I only know because I carry you around
C
In the background
F
Im in the background
[Verse 2]
C F
Words they come and memories all repeat
C F
I lift your head while they change the hospital sheets
C
And I would never lie to you no
F
I would never lie to you no
C F
I felt you long after we were through, we were through
[Chorus]
G
The plans I make still have you in them
Am G C
Cause you come swimming into view
Am
And Im hanging on your words
G C
Like I always used to do
Am
The words they use so lightly
G C
I only feel for you
Am F
I only know because I carry you around
C
In the background
C F C F
G
Cause I felt you long after we were through
[Solo]
Am F Am F Am F
[Chorus]
Am G C
Well you come swimming into view
Am
And Im hanging on your words

Like I always used to do

The words they use so lightly
