[Intro]
Bm A G A
[Verse]
Bm
I wasn't starting yet
A
I didn't even think
you were listening
G
I wasn't ready at all
A
To say anything about anything interesting
Bm
It's a thing you have
A
You just don't know that you do it
G
You wait around in a conversation
A
While I get in and start
stumbling through it
[Chorus]
D
I was so distracted then
Em
I didn't have it straight in my head
C
I didn't have my face on yet or
the role or the feel
D
Of where I was going with it all
D
I was suffering more than I let
Em
On. The tropic morning news was on
C
There's nothing stopping me now
D
From saying all the
painful parts out loud
[Verse]
Bm
Got to my feet
A
Feeling that I'd let you down
G
Wanted to say it slow and perfect
A
But it all somehow got switched around
Bm
Something went off on its own
A
My dumb, automatic chit-chat
G
It's not what I meant to say at all
A
There's no way you can attach me to that
[Chorus]
D
Got up to seize the day
Em
With my head in my hands feeling strange
C
When all my thinking got mangled
D
And I caught myself talking
myself off the ceiling
D
I was suffering more than
I let
Em
on, the tropic morning news was on
C
There's nothing stopping me now
D
From saying all the painful parts out loud
[Post-Chorus]
D Em
Oh, where are all the moments we'd have?
C
Oh, where's the brain we shared?
D
Something somehow has you rapidly improving
D
Oh, what happened to the
Em
wavelength we were on?
C
Oh, where's the gravity gone?
D
Something somehow has you rapidly improving
[Bridge]
G D Em C
G D Em C
G D
You found the ache in my argument
Em C
You couldn't wait to get out of it
G D
You found the slush in my sentiment
Em C
You made it sound so intelligent
G D
You can stop and start an athlete's heart
Em C
How do I feel about it?
G D
I would love to have nothing to do with it
C
I would like to move on and
be through with it
[Verse]
Bm D G A
Bm A
I'll be over here lying near the ocean
Making ocean sounds
G
Let me know if you can come over
A
And work the controls for a while
[Chorus]
D
I was so distracted then
Em
I didn't have it straight in my head
C
I didn't have my face on yet or
the role or the feel
D
Of where I was going with it all
D
I was suffering more than I let
Em
on, The tropic morning news was on
C
There's nothing stopping me now
D
From saying all the
painful parts out loud
[Post-Chorus]
D Em
Oh, where are all the moments
we'd have?
C
Oh, where's the brain we shared?
D
Something somehow has you
rapidly improving
D Em
Oh, what happened to the wavelength
we were on?
C
Oh, where's the gravity gone?
D
Something somehow has you rapidly improving
