A A                               E E
oh elise it doesn't matter what you say
Bm Bm
I just can't stay here every yesterday
D D
like keep on acting out the same the way we act out
A A
every way to smile forget
E E
and make-believe we never needed
Bm Bm D D
any more than this any more than this

# A A E E Bm Bm D D A A E E Bm Bm D D

A A E E
oh elise it doesn't matter what you do
Bm Bm
I know i'll never really get inside of you
D D
to make your eyes catch fire the way they should
A A
the way the blue could pull me in
E E
if they only would if they only would
Bm Bm D D
at least I'd lose this sense of sensing something else
A A
that hides away from me and you there're worlds to part
E E
with aching looks and breaking hearts
Bm Bm
and all the prayers your hands can make
D D
oh I just take as much as you can throw
A A
and then I throw it all away
E E
oh I throw it all away
Bm Bm
like throwing faces at the sky
D D
like throwing arms around
E E
yesterday I stood and stared
F#m F#m
wide-eyed in front of you
E E
and the face I saw looked back
F#m F#m
the way I wanted to
E E
but I just can't hold my tears away
F#m F#m
the way you do

G G F#m F#m
elise believe I never wanted this
G G F#m F#m
I thought this time I'd keep all of my promises
G G F#m F#m
I thought you were the girl always dreamed about
Bm Bm
but I let the dream go
D D
and the promises broke
A A
and the make-believe ran out...

# A A E E Bm Bm D D A A E E Bm Bm D D

A A E E
so elise it doesn't matter what you say
Bm Bm
I just can't stay here every yesterday
D D
like keep on acting out the same the way we act out
A A
every way to smile forget
E E
and make-believe we never needed
Bm Bm D D
any more than this any more than this
A A E E
and every time I try to pick it up like falling sand
Bm Bm
as fast as I pick it up
D D
it runs away through my clutching hands
A A
and there's nothing else I can really do
E E
there's nothing else I can really do
Bm Bm
there's nothing else I can really do
D D
at all...
