Intro: C G Em D x4
G
I said, "Everybody's headed out to La,
Em
But I hate to see you suffer.
You love New York in the summer."
G
So let's gather up the pieces of this broken, wilted thing.
Em
It's worth the struggle.
I just ache to touch you.
D Em C D
I've always wanted you too close.
C G Em D
And I said Why, why, why, is it hard to sleep without you?
C G Em D
Well I don't mind if you build your dreams around it.
C G
We won't survive on this borrowed time;
Em D
I don't know why you'd wanna try.
C G Em D C G Em D
I said, "Why, why, why do we waste time on these white lies?"
G
I catch a glimpse of fingernails with cracked pink polish,
Em
Tapping out a rhythm,
I'm just wondering what you're thinking.
G
There's a faded photograph of someone else you used to love.
Em
Can't stop from wishing,
That you'd just forget him.

D C G Em D
All these white lies.
D
I remember the night, the hotel bed,
You cried out loud.
Em G C
You were still in love with me.
D
Through time and space, oh, everything,
Em G C
You've wasted all your precious dreams and faith, it seems.
D
Needless crying...
