Dm7 G Dm7 G
[Verse 1]
Dm7 G/D
Your room was square
Dm7 G/D
I once noticed from there
Dm7 G/D
In your bed, as you slept
Dm7 G/D
And I held my breath
Dm7 G/D Dm7
Everything had its own place
G/D Dm7 Am7
And I wondered what space would I take
Ddim C
In the order you kept
[Interlude]
Dm7 G Dm7 G
[Verse 2]
Dm7 G/D Dm7
I tried to eat like your girlfriend
G/D Dm7 Am7
Just tea in the night, I'??d end up
G# G
Too hungry to sleep
Dm7 G/D Dm7 G/D Dm7
So lying awake, I would follow the aching inside
Am7
I would find
Ddim C
It's for you won'??t be mine
[Chorus]
C Dm F Am
I tried my hardest, for I'd never learned
Am F Dm C
God??'s very simple and love shouldn'?t burn
C Dm F E
And I would'??ve offered you all that you yearned for
Am F Dm C
But I was still waiting for something to earn
[Interlude]
C Am F G
[Verse 2]
C Dm Em F
What is that quiet of snow in the night?
G Am G
The dark rings with white noise
F G
As you stand and drown
C Dm Em F
Maybe it'??s all of these snowflakes, screaming
G Am G
A choir of mute
Ddim C
As they brace for the ground
[Interlude]
C Am
Well that'??s my ride
C Am
Hope you had a good night
G F
You know, you made me happy
C Am
Here shake my hand
C Am
You make such a good man
G F
Never once did you know me
[Chorus]
C Dm F Am
I tried my hardest, for how do you learn
Am F Dm C
God?'s very simple and love doesn'??t burn
C Dm F E
And maybe you'd offered me all that I yearned for
Am F Dm C
But I was still waiting for something to earn
[Outro]
Am F Dm C
Silly me, waiting
