G Dm/G
I wish that we could talk about it
F C
But there that's the problem
G Dm/G
With someone new I could have started
F C
Too late for beginnings
G Dm/G
The little things that made me harassed
F C
Are gone in a moment
G Dm/G
I miss the way we used to argue
F C
Locked in your basement
G Dm/G
I wake up and the phone is ringing
F C
Surprised as it's early
G Dm/G
And that should be the perfect warning
F C
That something's a problem
G Dm/G
To tell the truth I saw it coming
F C
The way you were breathing
G Dm/G
But nothing can prepare you for it
F C
The voice on the other end
G Dm/G
The worst is all the lovely weather
F C
I'm sad it's not raining
G Dm/G
The coffee isn't even bitter
F C
Because what's the difference
G Dm/G
There's all the work that needs to be done
F C
It's late for revision
G Dm/G
There's all the time and all the planning
F C
And songs to be finished
G
And it keeps coming
Dm/G
And it keeps coming
F
And it keeps coming
C
Till the day it stops
(Repeat x3)
G, Dm/G, F, C
And it keeps coming
(Repeat x7)
Till the day it stops
G Dm/G
I wish that we could talk about it
F C
But there that's the problem
G Dm/G
With someone new I could have started
F C
Too late for beginnings
G Dm/G
You're smaller than my wife imagined
F C
Surprised you were human
G Dm/G
There shouldn't be this ring of silence
F C
But what are the options
G Dm/G F C
When someone great is gone
(Repeat x8)
G Dm/G F C
We're safe for the moment
G
Saved,
Dm/G F C
For the moment
