Evelyn Evelyn
                     F
why do we bother to stay
F                   Cadd9
why are you running away
                    Gm
don't you feel like severing
                                    F
everything's just come together at last
F                           Cadd9
it's broken I don't want to play
 
Pre-Chorus:
Eb      Gm
we grew up
             F
closer than most
F
closer than anything
Cadd9
closer than anything
Eb          Gm
shared our bed
                     F
and wore the same clothes
F
talked about everything
Cadd9
spoke about so many things
 
 
Eb
what shall we wear tonight
Gm
what shall we eat today
F
can we go ice skating
      Cadd9
but we just did that yesterday
Eb
should we be firemen
Gm
can we be astronauts
F
what if they find us
       Cadd9
they're not looking anyway

Pre-Chorus:
Eb      Gm
fill my glass
              F
let's drink a toast
F
this is our birthday
   Cadd9
so why are we weeping
Eb      Gm                 F
at your side I feel like a ghost
F                     Cadd9
I wake up first and I stare at you sleeping

do you think I should marry him
       Cadd9
but we just met him yesterday
Eb
should we be movie stars
Gm
will we be millionaires
F
I want to be famous
        Cadd9
they're watching us anyway

Bridge:
Eb
we grew up
        Gm
so very close
Eb                  Bb
a parasite needs a host
Bb                 D
I'm only trying to do what is best for us
       Gm
well I never asked for this I never wanted this
Eb                             Ebm
all that I want is some time to myself
 

 Bb             F               Gm
looking in your eyes I'm coming home
Gm
just get away from me
 
please just stop touching me
Eb Ebm
you're always trying to be somebody else
 

Bb        F           Gm
now I realize I'm not alone
      Gm
well you're only scared of me
     Eb
but you never cared for me
Gm
why don't you let me free
      Cm
cause you never dare to be
      Gm
cause you never listen and you're always insisting I'm just reminiscing I feel something missing
Eb                       Ebm                   D
I just want my privacy why can't you leave me alone

-I just want you here with me god can't we just get along-
