[Verse 1]
Fmaj7 G (Gsus4 - G5)
Lines on my head
Fmaj7 G (Gsus4 - G5)
from that one thing she said
Fmaj7 G (Gsus4 - G5)
She spoke of strangers
Fmaj7 G (Gsus4 - G5)
that don't sleep two a bed
Fmaj7 G (Gsus4 - G5)
Kept on trying, buying time,
Fmaj7 G (Gsus4 - G5)
not waiting on fate
Fmaj7 G (Gsus4 - G5)
I somehow got the feeling
Fmaj7 G
that I opened my eyes too late
[Chorus]
C V-3-2
I saw where you came from
Am
Called out your name
Gm11
But there's no answer
C V-3-2
We lived on your doorstep
Am
I made you my wife
Gm11
but I don't need that
[Verse 2]
(same as verse 1)
Lines on my face,while I laugh lest I cry
Speed city dirt and gritty waving me goodbye
So many people,my family of friends
Trying so hard to make me smile untill this heartache mends
[Chorus]
(same chords)
I saw where you came from
called out your name
but there's no answer
We lived on your doorstep
I made you my wife but I don't need that
[Verse 3]
(same as verse 1)
Ice in her eyes,frozen tears would never be a surprise
You can't erase a dream you can only wake me up
My mind is turning slower,never to accept defeat
It don't matter where I live I still got a house to heat
[Chorus]
I saw where you came from
called out your name
but there's no answer
We lived on your doorstep
I made you my wife but I don't need that
