Chords:
G 320033
C2 x32033

*** intro:
G

*** verse 1:
G
One night in iowa, he and I in a borrowed car
Em
Went driving in the summer, promises in every star
C(2)
Out in the distance I could hear some people laughing
Am
I felt my heart beat back a weekend's worth of sadness

*** verse 2:
There was a farmhouse that had long since been deserted g
We stopped and carved our hearts into the wooden surface em
We thought just for an instant we could see the future

It's what he wants but he won't say
He'd rather make-believe I want to say goodbye
It's down to her although I know
She never made him happy, now she makes him cry

He cannot work, he cannot think
Beyond the guilt he has for leaving her alone
I'm going down I cannot breathe
He doesn't think to leave me anything at all

David denies that he'll ever change his mind
(but he always changes)
David denies - but he's left his love behind
(left his love behind)

It's what he wants, I'm almost sure
And I can hardly stand him saying it's not so
And so I'll wait and so I'll hope
Somehow I can convince him not to let me go

David denies that he'll ever change his mind
(but he always changes)
David denies - but he's left his love behind
(left his love behind)

David denies that he'll ever change his mind
(but he always changes)
David denies - but he's left his love behind
(left his love behind)

David denies that he'll ever change his mind
(but he always changes)
David denies - but he's left his love behind
(left his love behind)

And so I'll wait and so I'll hope
Somehow I can convince him
And so I'll wait and so I'll hope
Somehow I can convince him not to let me go

We're so close but I just can't
Ruin everything I ever planned
I've got no room for guilt this year
I'm trying hard to keep my conscience clear
And it's clear
But he knows just what he wants today
And I could just let it happen - yeah
The more I think the worse I guess
The more I guess the worse I am

(No, no, do not stay)
There's no such thing as lover's day
(Run, run, run away)
There's no such thing as lover's day

I want to see him right up close
I want to find out everything he knows
But everything comes back to you
There's no way to betray and still be true
And it's true
But he knows just what he wants today
And I could just let it happen
The more I think the worse I guess
The more I guess the worse I am

(No, no, do not stay)
There's no such thing as lover's day
(Run, run, run away)
There's no such thing as lover's day

(No, no, do not stay)
There's no such thing as lover's day
(Run, run, run away)
There's no such thing as lover's day

He made me feel so second-best
I never should have let him do it
But when he makes his pretty mess
Somehow you just fall into it

Have mercy on him
The love that I gave him is gone
Have mercy on him
The love that I saved for him is gone

He wasn't just another touch
He was something I created
And though I loved him much too much
I never thought my love was wasted

Have mercy on him
The love that I gave him is gone
Have mercy on him
The love that I saved for him is gone

How do you know who you should blame?
You spend your love, or you conserve it
It's hard to hear him curse my name
At least I know I don't deserve it

Have mercy on him
The love that I gave him is gone
Have mercy on him
The love that I saved for him is gone

Just for the record
You ought to know that I love you
'Cause the damage that you've done
I know you still could do
So fun time is over
And I guess it's enough
Oh but just for the record
It was a little too rough

All that night when I looked for you
Without a word to say
Knowing that I was looking through
The longest night the longest day

Sleeping and waking is the hardest thing to do
When you are taking every dream I had of you
Sleeping and waking

Notes: ok - instead of trying to worry about the differences between
G-->gsus, g-->c/g, and g-->am7/g I'm just calling it glick.
The notes in the lick are (in order) g d g b c-c c b with
The fifth and sixth tied. the second chord "fits" with any
Of the three except that there isn't an "a" in it per se,
But there does seem to be an "e". on the other hand it does
Have the same "tone" as a c/g would have. so I'm punting! :-)

*** intro:
Glick x4

*** verse 1:

Glick

Same town as it's ever been
If there's changes somewhere
They've occurred from within
Streets pass and hold up to me
Every corner defined
By the places you'd be

But no one is watching you now
No one is watching you now
Like I did

Even the longest of days
You could make disappear
By the look on your face

We used to drive into town
And the eyes of the girls
Followed you all around

But no one is watching you now
I know no one is watching you now
Like I did

Forty-eight hours pass
And I'm longing to stay
Forty-eight hours pass
And watching you, watching you
Is ages away

Something has torn me apart
Oh but what do I care
About watching my heart
I know that sadness bleeds through
And my sadness for me
Is now sadness for you

'Cause no one is watching you now
I know no one is watching you now
No one is watching you now
Like I did

I'm in the dark, I'd like to read his mind
but I'm frightened of the things I might find
Oh, there must be something he's thinking of
to tear him away
when I tell him that I'm falling in love
why does he say
hush hush
keep it down now
voices carry
I try so hard not to get upset
because I know all the trouble I'll get
oh, he tells me tears are something to hide
and something to fear
and I try so hard to keep it inside
so no one can hear
hush hush
keep it down now
voices carry
He wants me
but only part of the time
He wants me
if he can keep me in line
hush hush
keep it down now
voices carry
hush hush, darling, she might overhear
oh, no-voices carry
he said shut up he said shut up
oh God can't you keep it down
voices carry
I wish he would let me talk

There was a time
You opened up every doorway
You didn't mind if everything
Wasn't your way
Don't pull away
That goes against what you told me
I look in your eyes
I realize what you've sold me

Is love in a vacuum
Love in a vacuum

I think you've changed
But you insist that
That's not true
You look so strange, so distant
That you're hardly you
Now I can see
How you have been acting different
You say it's me
But I know


That it isn't
It's love in a vacuum
Love in a vacuum
And that's not enough
Love in a vacuum
You will be lonely
You'll be the only one who feels this way
You will be lonely
If you leave me alone
You will be lonely
You'll be the only one who feels this way
It's just not enough
And just wait
You will be lonely
Love in a vacuum
Love in a vacuum
And that's not enough
Love in a vacuum

I'm in the dark, I'd like to read his mind
but I'm frightened of the things I might find
Oh, there must be something he's thinking of
to tear him away
when I tell him that I'm falling in love
why does he say
hush hush
keep it down now
voices carry
I try so hard not to get upset
because I know all the trouble I'll get
oh, he tells me tears are something to hide
and something to fear
and I try so hard to keep it inside
so no one can hear
hush hush
keep it down now
voices carry
He wants me
but only part of the time
He wants me
if he can keep me in line
hush hush
keep it down now
voices carry
hush hush, darling, she might overhear
oh, no-voices carry
he said shut up he said shut up
oh God can't you keep it down
voices carry
I wish he would let me talk

Here I go again
Making promises
If I tell you no
It still sounds like yes

You know the rest
Do I have to say it?

Am I in too deep?
Can I still confess?
When you trusted me
That was just a guess

I guess
You know the rest
You know the rest
Do I have to say it?

Well, I warned you once
But without success
And I just escape
With my heart
A mess

Know the rest
(It's not so easy)
You know the rest
(It's not that easy)
Do I have to say it?
You know the rest.

Same town as it's ever been
If there's changes somewhere
They've occurred from within
Streets pass and hold up to me
Every corner defined
By the places you'd be

But no one is watching you now
No one is watching you now
Like I did

Even the longest of days
You could make disappear
By the look on your face

We used to drive into town
And the eyes of the girls
Followed you all around

But no one is watching you now
I know no one is watching you now
Like I did

Forty-eight hours pass
And I'm longing to stay
Forty-eight hours pass
And watching you, watching you
Is ages away

Something has torn me apart
Oh but what do I care
About watching my heart
I know that sadness bleeds through
And my sadness for me
Is now sadness for you

'Cause no one is watching you now
I know no one is watching you now
No one is watching you now
Like I did

You should take a walk
But it's just the same wherever you go
You just wish the ghost was gone
So you make some calls
But it's talking while you're wanting to go
You're just ringing phones for fun
You can always make a new excuse to cry
But you don't have to use it on yourself

So why spend your sadness now
Save it up for me on Sunday
And why is lonely all you have
When love is what you'll find on Sunday

You might guard your heart
But it's awfully fun to have it broken
Or at least to leave a bruise
It becomes an art
Though the rules of which are rarely spoken
By the lucky ones who can choose
So your pain becomes another souvenir
And your souvenirs become your world

So why spend your sadness now
Save it up for me on Sunday
And why is lonely all you have
When love is what you'll find on Sunday

Why spend your sadness now
Save it up for me on Sunday
And why is lonely all you have
When love is what you'll find on Sunday

I'd like to take her home
But no one walks where she does
She goes into the cold
Wearing two unmatched gloves

Is it that (a change of scene is all she needs)
Maybe it's (something she works out alone)
And if I don't hold her up
Will she just fall down?

She says she feels fine
She says she feels right at home
But I can hear her cry
When I leave the room, oh

Is it that (a change of scene is all she needs)
Maybe it's (something she works out alone)
And if I don't hold her up
Will she just fall down?

Well, some essential part
Is missing that I just can't replace
I know that these things are a matter of grace

And on her birthday I'll
Get a watch to keep her time
And I'll stay up with her
When she forgets to wind it

Is it that (a change of scene is all she needs)
Maybe it's (something she works out alone)
She says that (she only needs a change of heart)
Too bad that (parts alone are not enough)
And if I don't hold her up
And if I don't hold her up
And if I don't hold her up
Will she just fall down?

I'd like to take her home
But no one walks where she does
She goes into the cold
Wearing two unmatched gloves

Is it that (a change of scene is all she needs)
Maybe it's (something she works out alone)
And if I don't hold her up
Will she just fall down?

She says she feels fine
She says she feels right at home
But I can hear her cry
When I leave the room, oh

Is it that (a change of scene is all she needs)
Maybe it's (something she works out alone)
And if I don't hold her up
Will she just fall down?

Well, some essential part
Is missing that I just can't replace
I know that these things are a matter of grace

And on her birthday I'll
Get a watch to keep her time
And I'll stay up with her
When she forgets to wind it

Is it that (a change of scene is all she needs)
Maybe it's (something she works out alone)
She says that (she only needs a change of heart)
Too bad that (parts alone are not enough)
And if I don't hold her up
And if I don't hold her up
And if I don't hold her up

It's what he wants but he won't say
He'd rather make-believe I want to say goodbye
It's down to her although I know
She never made him happy, now she makes him cry

He cannot work, he cannot think
Beyond the guilt he has for leaving her alone
I'm going down I cannot breathe
He doesn't think to leave me anything at all

David denies that he'll ever change his mind
(but he always changes)
David denies - but he's left his love behind
(left his love behind)

It's what he wants, I'm almost sure
And I can hardly stand him saying it's not so
And so I'll wait and so I'll hope
Somehow I can convince him not to let me go

David denies that he'll ever change his mind
(but he always changes)
David denies - but he's left his love behind
(left his love behind)

David denies that he'll ever change his mind
(but he always changes)
David denies - but he's left his love behind
(left his love behind)

David denies that he'll ever change his mind
(but he always changes)
David denies - but he's left his love behind
(left his love behind)

And so I'll wait and so I'll hope
Somehow I can convince him
And so I'll wait and so I'll hope
Somehow I can convince him not to let me go

Living on silence
Living by the book
You get it to a science
Of living on one good look
So put out all the fires
And blow away the smoke
I'm getting pretty tired
Of living on hope

So what about love, baby
What about making room for two
What about love, baby
What about you

Living on daydreams
Walking in my sleep
And nothing is as it seems
When you're in so deep
So put out all the fires
And blow away the smoke
Unless you're getting tired
Of living on hope

So what about love, baby
What about making room for two
What about love, baby
What about you

So what about love, baby
What about making room for two
What about love, baby
What about you

What about you
What about you
What about me

Note: For some reason this isn't in tune... It's *sort* of between
Ebm and Em, closer to Ebm... so....
