Capo 4th 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

(Refrain)

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

(Chorus)

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?

(Verse 2)

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?

(Refrain)

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, with all that you are

(Chorus)

 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?

(Bridge)

 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?

(Chorus)

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?

(Outro)

 You dim the lights in the world I see

How I wish I could still believe

Time to save me

If I go who could blame me
