[Verse 1]
G
And I don't know where you went when
 you left me but
                                  C
Says here in the water you must be 
gone by now
I can tell somehow
G
One hand on the trigger of a 
telephone
Wondering when the call comes
                   C
Where you say it's alright
You got your heart right

[Pre-Chorus]
Am7
Maybe I'll sleep inside my coat and
C
Wait on the porch 'til you come back
 home
G
Oh, right
               C
I can't find a flight

[Chorus]
             G
We share the sadness
Split screen sadness
G
Two wrongs make it all alright 
tonight
C

[Verse 2]
G
All you need is love is a lie cause
C
We had love but we still said 
goodbye
         G                    C
Now we're tired, battered fighters
 G
And it stings when it's nobody's 
fault
               C
Cause there's nothing to blame at 
the drop of your name
              G                    
It's only the air you took and the 
 C
breath you left

[Pre-Chorus]
Am7
Maybe I'll sleep inside my coat and
C
Wait on the porch 'til you come back
 home
G
Oh, right
              C
I can't find a flight
Am
So I'll check the weather wherever 
you are
C                                 
Cause I wanna know if you can see 
            G
the stars tonight
                C
It might be my only right

[Chorus]
             G
We share the sadness
            C
Split screen sadness

G
I called
Because
I just
                 C
Need to feel you on the line
Don't hang up this time
G
And I know it was me who called it 
over but
I still wish you'd fought me 'til 
      C
your dying day
Don't let me get away
   G
Cause I can't wait to figure out 
what's wrong with me
C
So I can say this is the way that I 
used to be
G
There's no substitute for time
G
Or for the sadness
            C
Split screen sadness
             G
We share the sadness
