Capo 3rd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

It's not surprising it could end like this

Your eyes are open even when you kiss

 You're so distant

 So cold, so resistant

You see the world in only grey and black

Now how could anybody live like that

 Without screaming

 Without dying for dreaming

 And you stare out the window at the passing cars

 And you look at the sky, thank your unlucky stars

 No you're never quite happy right where you are

 So you keep on

 Inventing shadows

 Where there are none

 No, there are none

 Yeah, you keep on

 Inventing shadows

 Where there are none

 You don't even see the sun

Can't you see the sun?

You can't be shocked that I might want to leave

The way you're living's like you're half asleep

 You just drain me

 If I go who could blame me?

 And you stare out the window at the passing cars

 And you look at the sky, thank your unlucky stars

 No you're never quite happy right where you are

 right where you are, with all that you are

 So you keep on

 Inventing shadows

 Where there are none

 No, there are none

 Yeah, you keep on

 Inventing shadows

 Where there are none

 You don't even see the sun

Can't you see the sun?

You're so young, so beautiful

 So flawless in my eyes

Don't you know the world shines

Every time you smile

Why can't you just smile?

 So you keep on

 Inventing shadows

 Where there are none

 No, there are none

 Yeah, you keep on

 Inventing shadows

 Where there are none

 You don't even see the sun

Can't you see the sun?

You dim the lights in the world I see

How I wish that I could still believe

 Time to save me

 If I go who could blame me
