[Intro]
E G x4
(six bars) (two bars)
[Verse 1]
N.C.
So I walk down the street coming for you supposed to meet
N.C.
Yet all I do is stand around
N.C.
Hearing all the endless cries watching this city bustling by
N.C.
I'm listening to all the sounds
N.C.
Shouldn't rely on you
N.C.
You're always gone too soon
E
Standing by the café now as if on stage to take a bow,
E
A clock ticking the minutes 'til
D
Feeling exposed, feel scrutinised, by all the people passing by
D
As I await my fill
E
Shouldn't rely on you
B C
You're always gone too soon, and...
[Chorus]
E B D E G G E
If you're not here by my side
D D E E D G D E
I'll lose myself I'll lose my mind
E B D E G G E
If you're not here by my side
D D D E E D G D E
I'll be gone too far for you to find
E B
Say something that makes me laugh
C
Cause nothing ever lasts,
E
Completely possessed by you
[Verse 2]
N.C.
The people passing me stop to turn they can clearly see
N.C.
The fire that is fuelling my stride
N.C.
Determined focus in my eyes my common sense desperately cries
N.C.
It's down to wounded pride
E
Shouldn't rely on you
B C
You're always gone too soon
E
It isn't healthy dear to want the way I want
E
But it's the only drive I've ever known
D
To need so restlessly, demanding passion endlessly
D
This ugly side I've always shown
E
Shouldn't rely on you
B C
You're always gone too soon, and...
[Chorus]
E B D E G G E
If you're not here by my side
D D E E D G D E
I'll lose myself I'll lose my mind
E B D E G G E
If you're not here by my side
D D D E E D G D E
I'll be gone too far for you to find
E B
Say something that makes me laugh
C
Cause nothing ever lasts,
E
Completely possessed by you
[Middle 8]
D D D D C C C C E E E E E E E D D
I'd stand here locked in want 'til the Earth stopped turning and the sky did fall
D D D D C C C G D E
The smallest chance you might give me a call
D D D D C C C E E E E E E E D D
All that time took waiting some people would say what's the point in you?
D D D D C C C G D E
But no-one makes me feel the way you do
D D D C C C B E E B C D D D
D D D C C C B E E B C D D D
D D D C C C B E E B C D D D
D D D C C C B E
[Verse 3]
N.C.
You finally get here late don't seem to care you've made me wait
N.C.
You try to take my open hand
N.C.
You know I lose my way the tension really makes me pay
N.C.
You always seem to understand
E
Always rely on you
C B
Even if you're gone too soon, but...
[Chorus]
E B D E G G E
If you're not here by my side
D D E E D G D E
I'll lose myself I'll lose my mind
E B D E G G E
If you're not here by my side
D D D E E D G D E
I'll be gone too far for you to find
E B
Say something that makes me laugh
C
Cause nothing ever lasts,
E G
Completely possessed by you
E G E G
Completely possessed by you
E G E G
Completely possessed by you
E G E
Completely possessed by you
