[Verse 1]
C               F   C                F
Everything is quiet since youre not around
C                  F
And I live in the numbness
F                  C  Am  G
In the background
C                        F
I do the things we did before
C                            F
I walk haight street to the store
             C
And they say wheres that crazy girl
                    F
You dont get drunk on red wine and fight no more
C                  F
I dont see you anymore since the hospital

[Chorus]
     G
The plans I make still have you in them
       Am       G               C
Cause you come swimming into view
                        Am
And Im hanging on your words
        G             C
Like I always used to do
                       Am
The words they use so lightly
   G              C
I only feel for you
                     Am           F
I only know because I carry you around
           C
In the background
              F
Im in the background

[Verse 2]
C                                  F
Words they come and memories all repeat
C                                          F
I lift your head while they change the hospital sheets
  C
And I would never lie to you no
F
I would never lie to you no
C                               F
I felt you long after we were through, we were through

[Chorus]
     G
The plans I make still have you in them
       Am       G               C
Cause you come swimming into view
                        Am
And Im hanging on your words
        G             C
Like I always used to do
                       Am
The words they use so lightly
   G              C
I only feel for you
                     Am           F
I only know because I carry you around
           C
In the background

C  F   C   F

Cause I felt you long after we were through

     Am         G           C
Well you come swimming into view
                        Am
And Im hanging on your words
        G             C
Like I always used to do
                      Am
The words they use so lightly
  G             C
I only feel to you
