Intro
F Bb
Verse 1
F Bb
Night lift up the shades
Eb Cm
Let in the brilliant light of the morning
F Bb
But steady there now for I am weak
Eb Cm
And starving for mercy
F Bb
Sleep has left me alone
Eb
To carry the weight of unravelling
Cm
Where we went wrong
F Bb
It's all I can do to hang on
Eb
And keep me from falling
Cm Gm
Into old familiar shoes
Chorus
Gm Eb
How stupid could I be
Bb F
A simpleton could see
Gm C
That you're no good for me
Eb Bb F C
But you're the only one I see
Verse 2
F Bb
Love has made me a fool
Eb Cm
It set me on fire and watched as I floundered
F Bb
Unable to speak except to cry out
Eb Cm
And wait for your answer
F Bb
But you come around in your time
Eb
Speaking of fabulous places
Cm
Create an oasis
F Bb
Dries up as soon as you're gone
Eb
You leave me here burning,
Cm
in this desert without you.
[Chorus]
Bridge
C
Everything changes
Eb
Everything falls apart
Gm F C
I Can't stand to feel myself losing control
Eb Gm
But deep in my senses I know
[Chorus] X2
