| Amaj7      | Amaj7      | F#m     | F#m     |  x2


[Verse 1]
Amaj7
Taunting waves and toying with chances
F#m
Night and day and night
Amaj7
I can't help it, can we really help it?
    F#m
The thinning distance between you and I


[Pre-Chorus]
Bm                        F#m
  This is the color of my silver lining made of gold
G
 Here comes the storybook hero that I once was told of
Bm                  F#m
  And I roll away descend the pull of gravity
G
 Insert denial here the things even the blind can see


[Chorus]
Bm         F#m
  I've got everything to lose
           G
So why not lose it anyway, why not?
Bm      F#m
  All I needed from you was to sing
G
 What I had to say


[Interlude]
| Amaj7      | Amaj7      | F#m     | F#m     |


[Verse 2]
 Amaj7
Evasive as I may seem, it seems there is no need
             F#m
To hide such things
Amaj7
From you like undisguising

The obvious
F#m
Tease the naked

Chase the jaded one


[Pre-Chorus]
Bm                                   F#m
  This is the time of the night when I pretend to sleep so sound
G
 Riding a carousel too many times so roundabout
Bm                    F#m
  And I roll away and leave behind security
G
 Fading in and out, I wait for you to fall for me


[Chorus]
Bm        F#m
  Take me down the road
   G
Of when you were younger

When you loved her so
Bm      F#m                    G
  All I needed from you was to sing

Everything


[Tag]
Bm                          F#m
  Forgive the child in your woman

Your woman is a child
G
 If you know so much better

Then why are you here now?
Bm                       F#m
  Why are you here now?
                            G
Oh, why are you here now?
