[Intro]
 B   F#   G#m   E(x2)
G#m B F# E B
[Chorus]
BHad one hot cup of tea
F#And too much time to think
G#mSo I rewrote the Estory of Bus
Where I spoke eloquentlyF#  
F#And you responded gently
G#mTo the use of Emy soft langBuage
[Verse]
BBut I still wore F#brown and blue
And my G#mcurly head of Ered was styBlish
All the drunk men and the F#cool kids
F#Stepped aside with Kirkwood
G#mHumming like ciEcada's chorus
BCan't escape the G#mfeeling
That I've done this Eone before
On the F#elevator taking me uBp
To the top of the gG#marage
Played tapes from the Eboombox
'Til the F#night turns to morning agG#mainE  F#  B  
[Bridge]
BWhen we were young and G#mbrave we shook off Bevery G#mrule
Maybe Bin our G#mfaith we acted Blike a G#mfool
Now there's Bshades of G#mgray for everyBthing we G#mdo
How I've Blonged for G#msomething that will Bmake me feel like G#mthere's only one Eanswer
Now I skip to Bfoolish G#mfumbling when I Bhear your G#mname
And if this Bcomes to G#mnothing then it's Ball the samG#me
After G#mso much waiting it's a Ewelcome change
[Chorus]
BHad two hot cups of tea
F#And too much time to think
So G#mI rewrote the Estory of Bus
Where I spoke eloquentlyF#  
F#And you responded gently
G#mTo the use of Emy soft langBuage
Now there's nothing left to F#say
It feels empty in your G#mplaceE  
BAnd I know I've lost my F#chance
This is where we'll always G#mstandE  
[Outro]
I Bnever said F#nothing
To G#mmove me Etowards you
I Bnever did F#nothing
To G#mmove me Etowards you
I Bnever said F#nothing
To G#mmove me Etowards you
I Bnever said F#nothing
To G#mmove me Etowards youB

G#m

[Intro]

B F# G#m E

(x2)

G#m B F# E B

[Chorus]

Had one hot cup of tea

And too much time to think

G#m E B

So I rewrote the story of us

Where I spoke eloquently

And you responded gently

G#m E B

To the use of my soft language

[Verse]

B F#

But I still wore brown and blue

G#m E B

And my curly head of red was stylish

All the drunk men and the cool kids

Stepped aside with Kirkwood

G#m E

Humming like cicada's chorus

B G#m

Can't escape the feeling

That I've done this one before

F# B

On the elevator taking me up

G#m

To the top of the garage

Played tapes from the boombox

F# G#m E F# B

'Til the night turns to morning again

[Bridge]

B G#m B G#m

When we were young and brave we shook off every rule

B G#m B G#m

Maybe in our faith we acted like a fool

B G#m B G#m

Now there's shades of gray for everything we do

B G#m B G#m E

How I've longed for something that will make me feel like there's only one answer

B G#m B G#m

Now I skip to foolish fumbling when I hear your name

B G#m B G#m

And if this comes to nothing then it's all the same

G#m E

After so much waiting it's a welcome change

[Chorus]

Had two hot cups of tea

And too much time to think

G#m E B

So I rewrote the story of us

Where I spoke eloquently

And you responded gently

G#m E B

To the use of my soft language

Now there's nothing left to say

G#m E

It feels empty in your place

B F#

And I know I've lost my chance

G#m E

This is where we'll always stand

[Outro]

B F#

I never said nothing

G#m E

To move me towards you

B F#

I never did nothing

G#m E

To move me towards you

B F#

I never said nothing

G#m E

To move me towards you

B F#

I never said nothing

G#m E B

To move me towards you
