Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Verse

I wanna wake you up

I can hardly hear my footsteps

In the falling darkness

I can barely wait to see you

In your apartment

 We were heading for the better times we wanted

We were sorry that the distance

 Took more than we prepared

We could do it again (we could do it again)

Just another ending this time

Were you ever scared? (were you ever scared?)

Did you seek for reasons to get

Far away from all the travelling

 And talking on the phone?

Can't you see it's only what we've been

Can't you see the threats?

Chorus

Can't you see your own obsessions?

Can't you see your count in this?

Can't you see I'm only happy

When you're in the house?

You should know I'm only waiting

For the times we never had

You should know it's all because of

You're not in the house

[Verse, same chords as before]

I wanna say it straight (I wanna say it straight)

We could be whatever we dreamed

Something really good (something really good)

Just let yourself get to it

In your apartment

We were heading for the better times we wanted

We were sorry that the distance

Took more than we prepared

[Chorus, same as before]

Interlude

"You're not in the house..."):

[Chorus, same chords but different lyrics]

Can't you see we're going nowhere?

Can't you see your count in this?

Can't you see I'm only happy

When you're in the house?

Can't you see my only vision?

Can't you see I'm counting this?

You should know I can't be happy

Till you're in the house
