Intro

(pick bass note with pick and pluck the rest softly with fingers)

Verse

  You ask me all kinds of questions, Like I . . I've got something to hide

  And I don't know why this all began

  You used to love me for freedom, Said you'd climb aboard and fly

  Now we're on the ground and I'm locked in

Chorus

  I don't wanna lie, Saying it's alright

  Staring at the walls round our lives, And they're ten feet high

  No I'm not dumb

  You don't need to smile when you hurt inside

  I can see the doubt in your eyes, And the fun we had is done

  But I won't sit and watch you go cold

  When summer has left the room, This curtain is closing

  I'm not staying to see the end

Verse

  We said we'd never become this, And tell each other how to live

  Now I know your high times aren't with me

  We keep finding more ways to escape you and me

  Pretend you're asleep when you're lying awake

Chorus

  I don't wanna lie, Saying it's alright

  Staring at the walls round our lives, And they're ten feet high

  No I'm not dumb

  You don't need to smile when you hurt inside

  Don't say it's over, When I still love you

  I won't let it go cold, When summer has left the room

  This curtain is closing, I'm not staying to see the end

  I won't watch it grow old, When summer has left the room

  This curtain is closing, I'm not staying to be the end
