  E                               A                                  repeat

E
Open your eyes and stretch your hands
This house is clean but it is not my home
A
Did I make this bed
                         E
The two hands touch on two

Sometimes I think of some place colder
The sound of traffic and the way it's worn
          A                                E
When you feel yourself grow up inside of here
         A                     E
And you love me just like a stranger
          A   (stop)
But you love me just like I am

E A (repeated)

E
Remember we ran through lovely streets
We made our rules and then we broke them first
     A                                  E
It felt like we were running all the time
     E
When I wouldn't give one ugly moment

I'd wrap it up, I'd keep it in my sock
       A                                     E
I can keep it, yeah, I know what's yours is mine
         A                    E
And you love me just like a stranger
          A   (stop)
But you love me when

   E                               A
I stand to the sleep that lets me love some other day
We get bored of weakness all the time
Now I won't know how much I lost until I've gone away
Your sun sets when my sun starts to shine
