Standard (EADGBE)

Everything is quiet since youre not around

And I live in the numbness

In the background

I do the things we did before

I walk haight street to the store

 And they say wheres that crazy girl

 You dont get drunk on red wine and fight no more

I dont see you anymore since the hospital

 The plans I make still have you in them

 Cause you come swimming into view

 And Im hanging on your words

 Like I always used to do

 The words they use so lightly

 I only feel for you

 I only know because I carry you around

In the background

 Im in the background

Words they come and memories all repeat

I lift your head while they change the hospital sheets

 And I would never lie to you no

I would never lie to you no

I felt you long after we were through, we were through

 The plans I make still have you in them

 Cause you come swimming into view

 And Im hanging on your words

 Like I always used to do

 The words they use so lightly

 I only feel for you

 I only know because I carry you around

In the background

 Cause I felt you long after we were through

(Solo)

 Well you come swimming into view

 And Im hanging on your words

 Like I always used to do

 The words they use so lightly

 I only feel to you

I only know because

Im way Im way in the background

 Im in the background
