Em
Any way I look at it
D
I still don't see the full of it
C
The whole thing's built in parts
Bm
When we're attached we have our little bits
Am D
And some of them still linger in the autumn
Am
You like your summers hot
D
When I get cold I like to have a winter then
Em D
Many happy people woke and cried
Hey did you witness it
C Bm
You wake up on that snowy day when no one is prepared for it
Am D
When the little boys got employed by the powder
Am D
They get their twenty dollars frozen on a counter
did I scream then?
(I will keep trying into the night that's passing through light)
C D
Ahhhh, what were we singing?
C D Am
Ahhhh, I can't believe this goodbye
Am D
My choice to be there on time
Am D
It's not my choice to be there on time
Am D
It's not my choice to be there on time
Am D Am
It's not my choice to be there on time ahhhh ahhhhhahh
D
I can't let it go
Bm D Am
And the thing about being apart
C Bm Am
Is you just let life give you denial
Em D Am
It's not like you're given these feelings
Bm Am G Em
all just set adrift in the mind
Bm D Am
And the thing about being apart
C Bm Am
Is you just let life give you denial
Em D Am
It's not like you're given these feelings
Bm Am G
all just set adrift like a kite
Am D
But is your ficus fine, did you give it too much water?
Am D
Is your ficus fine did you give it too much water?
Am D
Is my ficus fine did you give it too much water?
Am D
Like your summer's hot and winter cold, goodbye my New York
(I will keep trying, you will keep trying into the night that's passing through light)
