E   Ebm            C#m       B 
For once, there is nothing up my sleeve 

E         Ebm         C#m            B 
Just some scars from a life that used trouble me 

   E     Ebm         C#m         B 
I used to run at first sight of the sun 

E                B          C#m      B 
Now I lay here waiting for you to wake up 

E       Ebm          C#m                B 
The city outside still sounds like it's on fire 

E              Ebm     
You put on new sheets 

    C#             B 
The white flag of a Saturday night 

E       Ebm        C#      B 
I know we stayed up talking in circles 

E                Ebm   
But I like to think the symmetry 

    C#             B 
Will keep me close to you 

E          Ebm              C#             B 
For everyone, I'm out to pull wrong, you keep the light on 

E        Ebm           C#            B 
The only one, you now me better than the truth 

E                    Ebm         C#            B 
So despite what I've done I pray to God that we can move on 

E             Ebm                         C#              B 
Cause thus far you are the best thing that this life is yet to lose 

E        Ebm          C#          B 
And, for once there is nothing up my sleeve 

E         Ebm        C#           B 
Just some scars from a life that used to trouble me 

E        Ebm         C#       B 
I used to run at first sight of the sun 

       E        Ebm      C#m      B 
Now I lay here waiting for you to wake up 

   E        Ebm      C#m      B 
I lay here waiting for you to wake up 

    E           Ebm   C#          B 
So if you gonna leave, if you gonna go 

    E           Ebm    C#              B 
I can't bare to sleep without you in my arms 

E              Ebm                         C#                  B 
I know we got caught up slipping through a crowd of people and losers 

         E               Ebm          
But you must not let them take you 

             C#           B 
They don't know you like I do 

E   Ebm            C#m       B 
For once, there is nothing up my sleeve 

E         Ebm          C#m           B 
Just some scars from a life that used trouble me 

   E     Ebm         C#m         B 
I used to run at first sight of the sun 

E                B          C#m      B 
Now I lay here waiting for you to wake up 

E            B          C#m      B 
I lay here waiting for you to wake up 

           E            Ebm             C#m                       B          
Do you remember when we stayed up till the sun stretched through the room 

            E              Ebm             C#m  B 
I used to blame it on the queens walking down 7th Avenue 

            E                Ebm  
It?s been years now since we moved 

             C#m            B 
I?ve gotten through with an excuse 

            E                 Ebm          
You know I try not to speak superlatives 

           C#m        B 
But it's impossible to you 


(instrumental, so just repeat the chorus chords) 


E         Ebm      C#m           B 
The city outside is nothing but a flicker now 

E            Ebm              C#m         B 
You see our friends to bed, you turn out the lights 
  
E          Ebm                C#m       B 
I start to think you'll make a beautiful mother, I 

E         Ebm                   C#m              B 
I like to think I have everything I want from this life.
