Capo 1st fret
Standard (EADGBE)
You close your eyes and kiss your hand then you blow it.
But it isn't meant for me, and I noticed
If the choice was ours alone,
Then why'd we both choose letting go?
Does it end like this?
Time never had a chance to heal your heart
Just a number always counting down to a new start
If you'd always knew the truth
Then the world would spin around you
Are you dizzy yet?
Chorus
Respectfully, so honestly I'm calling out
Do you hear the conversation we talk about?
I'll back away to the safety of a quiet house
If there's half a chance in this moment
When your eyes meet mine, we show it off.
Verse 2
All talk and not a lot to think, we were living dreams
And shame never crept close to our naked feet
If there's something left to lose,
Then don't let me wear out my shoes
That I still walk in.
I tried, but it rang and rang, I called all night
On a payphone, remember those from another life?
If everything I meant to you,
You can't lick and seal then fold in two
Then i've been so blind
Chorus
Respectfully, so honestly I'm asking now
Do you hear the conversation we talk about?
I'll back away to the safety of a quiet house
If there's half a chance in this moment
When your eyes meet mine, we show it off.
Bridge
Oh, oh take it all back, take the first, your last, your only.
Oh, oh take it all back, take it all back,
Everything you showed me.
Oh, oh, this must be how it feels
When the feeling goes... oh
I told you as I haven't, I never felt this way
You said I have the shot that stops my clock
Baby it's okay
You said you never had regrets
Jesus, is there someone yet
Who got their wish; did you *get yours babe? *=release the finger on the 5th
Chorus
Respectfully, so honestly I'm calling out
Do you hear the conversation we talk about?
I'll back away to the safety of a quiet house
If there's half a chance in this moment
When your eyes meet mine, we show it off.
(Strum to the end.)
