Hours Outside In The Snow

        E                         A
I spent all of Christmas Eve fake angry at you for
E                     A            E
Who knows what now or then and you spoke so fast
  A             E                        A
I just sat back relaxed and took you all in


        E                                  A
I spent all of Christmas Eve trying to get warmer
                           E
After standing outside for hours knowing at this point
       A
I’d be lucky to get any sleep


 E                                     A
And I’ll toss and turn until the early morning
        E
Happily ignoring that my blue jeans
            A
Didn’t do a fucking thing for me
Against this cold


E                                          A
Sober or not, I locked everything you sent me
                         E
Cause what’s better than seeing
         A
What I’m missing daily
I guess what I’m trying to say is that



E   E     E           A A     A
You might run, oh but I won’t hide
Continúa después del anuncio
        E     E  E
Shed an ounce of light
           A   A    A
On my half-hopeless life
Don’t let me go back


                       E
And though I’d like to say more
                            A
I guess, I’ll just duck and cover
                        E
Almost praying that you trip over
                                A
The cluster of words I laid out before having to leave



                 E
But since you’ve taken the time to read so carefully
A
Everything I’ve ever sent
             E
I guess I’ll spend the next few lines
           A
Hoping and wishing
Yet thanking appropriately


E   E     E           A A     A
You might run, oh but I won’t hide
        E     E  E
Shed an ounce of light
           A   A    A
On my half-hopeless life
Don’t let me go back


E   E     E           A A     A
You might run, oh but I won’t hide
        E     E  E
Shed an ounce of light
           A   A    A
On my half-hopeless life
Don’t let me go back


      E              A
To Erin: Please read later
                      E
Cause I don’t think I have the heart
                     A
To let you read this now
                 E
But if I had the heart
                     A
You know that I know better
                       E              A
This isn’t how you say aloud, you say aloud     x2


E   E     E           A A     A
You might run, oh but I won’t hide
        E     E  E
Shed an ounce of light
           A   A    A
On my half-hopeless life
Don’t let me go back          (Guitar 2 Plays this during the second loop of the previous verse,
 To Erin…)
