Verse 1
G#m7
It's been a long, long time
C#7sus4
C#7
since I've memorized your face
G#m7
It's been four hours now
C#7sus4
C#7
since I've wandered through your place
G#m7
And when I sleep on your couch
C#7sus4
C#7
I feel very safe
G#m7
And when you bring the blankets
C#7sus4
C#7
I cover up my face

Verse 2
G#m9
And when you play guitar
C#7sus4
C#7
I listen to the strings buzz
G#m9
The metal vibrates
C#7sus4
C#7
underneath your fingers
G#m9
And when you crochet
C#7sus4
C#7
I feel mesmerized and proud
G#m9
And I would say I love you,
C#7sus4
C#7
but saying it out loud

So I won't say it at all

G#m7
And I won't stay very long
Bmaj7
F#/A#
But you are the life
G#m9
G#m7
I needed all along
Bmaj7
F#/A#
I think of you as my brother
G#m9

Although that sounds dumb
Bmaj7
F#/A#
G#m7
And words are futile devices
