Intro 1
(A major) (E major) (F sharp minor) (D major)
(A major) (E major) (F sharp minor) (D major)
(A major) (E major) (F sharp minor) (D major)
Verse 1
Oh E (A major) lise it doesn't matter what you say (E major)
I just can't stay here every (F sharp minor) yesterday
Like keep on acting out (D major) the same
The way we act out
(A major) Every way to smile, forget
And (E major) make-believe we never needed
(F sharp minor) Any more than this
(D major) Any more than this

Interlude 1
(A major) (E major) (F sharp minor) (D major)
(A major) (E major) (F sharp minor) (D major)
Verse 2
Oh E (A major) lise it doesn't matter what you do (E major)
I know I'll never really (F sharp minor) get inside of you
To make your eyes (D major) catch fire
The way they should
The (A major) way the blue could pull me in
If they (E major) only would, if they only would
At (F sharp minor) least I'd lose this sense of sensing
(D major) Something else that hides away
From (A major) me and you, there're worlds to part
With (E major) aching looks and breaking hearts
And (F sharp minor) all the prayers your hands can make
Oh (D major) I just take as much as you can throw
(A major) And then throw it all away (E major)
Oh I throw it all away (F sharp minor)
Like throwing faces (D major) at the sky
Bridge 1
Like throwing arms round
(E major) Yesterday, I stood and stared
Wide- (F sharp minor) eyed in front of you
And the (E major) face I saw looked back
The way I (F sharp minor) wanted to
But I (E major) just can't hold my tears away
The way (F sharp minor) you do
Elise (G major) believe I never wanted (F sharp minor) this
I (G major) thought this time I'd keep all of my (F sharp minor) promises
I (G major) thought you were the girl
I always (F sharp minor) dreamed about
But I (G major) let the dream go
And the (F sharp minor) promises broke
Solo 1
And the make-believe ran out
(E major) (F sharp minor) (E major) (F sharp minor)
(E major) (F sharp minor) (E major) (D major)
(A major) (E major) (F sharp minor) (D major)
(A major) (E major) (F sharp minor) (D major)
(A major) (E major) (F sharp minor) (D major)
Verse 3
So E (A major) lise it doesn't matter what you say (E major)
I just can't stay here every (F sharp minor) yesterday
Like keep on acting out (D major) the same
The way we act out
(A major) Every way to smile, forget
And (E major) make-believe we never needed
(F sharp minor) Any more than this
(D major) Any more than this
Verse 4
And (A major) every time I try to pick it up (E major)
Like falling sand
As (F sharp minor) fast as I pick it up
It runs away (D major) through my clutching hands
But there's (A major) nothing else I can really do
There's (E major) nothing else I can really do
There's (F sharp minor) nothing else I can really do
At all (D major)
