G C Am D
20,000 seconds since you left and I’m still counting
G C
20,000 reasons to get up, get something done
Am
but I’m still waiting..
D G
is there someone kind enough to pick me up
C
and give me food assure me that the world is good
Am D G C Am D
but you should be here, you should be here
G C
how colors can change and even the texture of the rain
Am D
what’s that ugly little stain on the bathroom floor
G
I’d rather not deal without right now
C
I’d rather be floating in space
Am D
From where or worry about the ozone layer
G C Am D
And it’s almost like a corny movie scene
G C
Well I’m out of frame and the light is bad
Am D
And the music has no theme
G C
And we’re all so strong when nothings wrong
Am D
And the world is at our feet
G
But how small we are
C Am D G C Am D
When our love is so far away when all you need is YOU.
