Verse 1:
G Am Bm C
You used to live with me at night after the bars were closed,
G Am Bm C
And your smile would obstruct my line of sight, and leave my heart exposed,
G Am Bm C G
And all I'd want, all I want is you girl,
Am Bm C
To know me, to hold me, to take up my whole mind,
Chorus: (x2)
G Am Bm C G Am Bm C
O-oh-oh-oh-oh, but you're getting smaller
Verse 2:
Then I could hold you in my palm, the palm of my hand
And your hair would wrap around my thumb, like a wedding band,
In dreams, we'd kiss, we'd kiss just like before,
With full lips, and pressed hips, up against the door
Chorus
Bridge:
Am
You were all I wanted,
C
I was overwhelmed,
Em G
And I swore that I was feeling things I'd never felt,
Am
An empty nightstand,
C
A packed suitcase,
Em G Am C
With every day that passes, you become a name with no face,
Verse 3: (acoustic guitar returns to finger-picking, see intro)
And now you live between my soul,
and my heart, my brain, my mind,
My blood, my bones, but even so,
girl I often find, that I,
I can't recall the way you were,
Your eyelids, your sweet voice, your features fade away
Chorus (repeat to end)
