A Bm
For 27 years I've been trying
G
to believe and confide in
D A
different people I found
Bm
Some of them got closer than others
G
and some wouldn't even bother
D A
and then you came around
Bm
I didn't really know what to call you
G
You didn't know me at all
D A
but I was happy to explain
Bm
I never really knew how to move you
G
so I tried to intrude through
D
the little holes in your veins
F#m G
And I saw you
D A
But that's not an invitation
G
that's all I get
D A
If this is communication
G
I disconnect
I've seen you, I know you
D A G
but I don't know how to connect
A
so I disconnect
You always seem to know where to find me
and I'm, still here behind you
in the corner of your eye
I never really learnt how to love you
but I know that I love you
through the hole in the sky
where I see you
and that's not an invitation that's all I get
If this is communication
I disconnect
I've seen you, I know you
but I don't know how to connect
so I disconnect
B- C#m - E- B
B- C#m - E- A
E B
Well this is an invitation
A
it's not a threat
E B
If you want communication
A
that's what you get
I'm talking and talking
E B C#m
but I don't know how to connect
A
and I hold a record for being patient E B A
with your kind of hesitation E B A
I need you, you want me
E B A
but I don't know how to connect
B
so I disconnect
B E
I disconnect
