Intro -x2-: Dbm  Gbm  Ab  E B

Verse 1:
 Dbm                       Gbm
It's the tearing sound of love notes
             Ab                    E   B
Drowning out these gray-stained windows
       Dbm                  Gbm
And the view outside is sterile
         Ab
And I'm only two cubes down
               Dbm                 Gbm
I'd photocopy all the things that we could be
        B                  E   B
If you took the time to notice me
               Dbm          Gbm
But you can't now, I don't blame you
          B                  E       B
And it's not your fault that no one ever does

Chorus:
E                         Bb
But you don't work here, anymore
            B      A        Ab
It's just a vacant three-by-four
E                        Bb
And they might fill your place
             B        Dbm        Ab
a temporary stand-in for your face

Post-Chorus:
E                    Bb
This happens all the time
                      B          A      Abm
And I can't help but think I'll die, alone

Interlude:
Dbm  Gbm  Ab   E B

Verse 2:
         Dbm                     Gbm
So, I'll spend my time with strangers
       Ab                E      B
a condition and it's terminal
            Dbm          Gbm
In this water-cooler romance
         B
And it's coming to a close

E                     Dbm                 Gbm
We could be in the park and dancing by a tree
      Ab             E   B
Kicking over blades we see
         Dbm                  Gbm
Or a dark beach with a black view
            Ab                  E        B
And pin-pricks in the velvet catch our fall

Chorus:
E                         Bb
But you don't work here, anymore
            B      A        Ab
It's just a vacant three-by-four
E                        Bb
And they might fill your place
             B       Dbm        Abm
a temporary stand-in for your face

Post-Chorus:
E                    Bb
This happens all the time
                      B          A      Abm
And I can't help but think I'll die, alone
