Intro: C G Em D  x4

         G
I said, "Everybody's headed out to 
La,
                      Em
But I hate to see you suffer.
You love New York in the summer."
         G
So let's gather up the pieces of 
this broken, wilted thing.
          Em
It's worth the struggle.
I just ache to touch you.

     D             Em  C     D
I've always wanted you too close.


           C      G      Em      
And I said Why, why, why, is it 
        D
hard to sleep without you?
     C       G   Em              
Well I don't mind if you build 
    D
your dreams around it.
C                   G
We won't survive on this borrowed 
time;
Em               D
I don't know why you'd wanna try.
         C      G     Em         
I said, "Why, why, why do we 
   D           C      G      Em  D
waste time on these white lies?"


   G
I catch a glimpse of fingernails 
with cracked pink polish,

               Em
Tapping out a rhythm,
I'm just wondering what you're 
thinking.
           G
There's a faded photograph of 
someone else you used to love.
               Em
Can't stop from wishing,
That you'd just forget him.


     D             Em  C     D
I've always wanted you too close.


           C      G      Em

    D           C  G  Em D
All these white lies.


   D
I remember the night, the hotel bed,
You cried out loud.
                   Em   G   C
You were still in love with me.
         D
Through time and space, oh, 
everything,
You've wasted all your precious 
            Em    G  C
dreams and faith, it seems.
          D
Needless crying...


           C      G      Em      
And I said Why, why, why, is it
