Intro -x2-: Dm7  G  Dm7  G

Verse 1:
Dm7           G 
Your room was square
       Dm7          G 
I once noticed from there
        Dm7         G 
In your bed, as you slept
      Dm7     G 
And I held my breath
Dm7        G           Dm7
Everything had its own place
      G             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             Dm7
I tried to eat like your girlfriend
     G          Dm7            Am7
Just tea in the night, I'€™d end up
    Ab        G
Too hungry to sleep
   Dm7      G           Dm7        G          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
