The Writer Lyrics
 A 3/4 : / D F#m / E F#m / x 2 / D F#m / E A/c# / Hm7 D/e / A / 
You wait for a silence
I wait for a word
 Lie next to your frame 
Girl unobserved
 You change your position 
And you are changing me 
Casting these shadows
 Where they shouldn't be 

We're interrupted by the heat of the sun 
Trying to prevent what's already begun 
You're just a body 
I can smell your skin 
And when I feel it, you're wearing thin 
4/4 : / D/h A/c# D D/h / 
But I've got a plan B / E F#m / D A / x 2 / F#m Hm / E F#m E/g# / A A/c# Hm7 / Esus / 
Why don't you be the artist; and make me out of clay? 
Why don't you be the writer and decide the words I say? 
Because I'd rather pretend
I'll still be there at the end 
Only it's too hard to ask... won't you try to help me / Hm A/c# F#m / 

Sat on your sofa...it's all broken springs
 This isn't the place for those violin strings 
I try out a smile and I aim it at you 
You must have missed it
 You always do

But I've got a plan 
Why don't you be the artist; and make me out of clay? 
Why don't you be the writer and decide the words I say? 
Because I'd rather pretend 
I'll still be there at the end
 Only it's too hard to ask... won't you try to help me 3/4 : / D F#m / E F#m / x 3 / D F#m / E E / E E /

 You wait, I wait, casting shadows, interrupted
 You wait, I wait, casting shadows, interrupted 
You wait, I wait, casting shadows


 Why don't you be the artist; and make me out of clay? 
Why don't you be the writer and decide the words I say? 
Because I'd rather pretend
I'll still be there at the end 
Only it's too hard to ask... won't you try to help me


 Why don't you be the artist; and make me out of clay?
 Why don't you be the writer and decide the words I say?
 Because I'd rather pretend
I'll still be there at the end
 Only it's too hard to ask... won't you try to help me
