F           (88 10 10 8)
The longer that I'm Bbmaj7out here the better you Fsound
You're scrunching up your Bbmaj7face in this picture I Cfound
And I'm chasing after Bbmaj7you, steadily losing Dmground
             C   Bb(strum twice)
I don't wanna forget so I'm writing it down
F  Dm  C  F  F2
BbHave you ever? No, never never?
FI find that hard to believe
BbSo let's burn the furniture
To see how angry Fa fire could make me
Now you say that there's Bbsomeone that you Cneed to recoDmnnect withF  
Some scarecrow from hiBbgh school that you Cloved but never Dmslept withF  
A baby with a Bbpipe dream playing Chopscotch on your DmbandaFges
########
And I'm singing all his Bbmaj7songs while I sleep on your Fcouch
I'm coughing up a Bbmaj7lung but I'm covering my Cmouth
And I paint you on the Bbmaj7wall
Yellow, red, green and Dmbrown
                  C   Bb(strum twice)            
I miss you all the time but I'm blocking it out
F  Dm  C  F  F2
BbAre you better? No, never never?
FWhat does that say about me?
Now let's break the Bbsmoke alarm
To see how scared Flocked windows'll make me
So you say there's a Bbstranger staring Csideways in a Dmdeep freezeF  
A loner draped in Bbivy playing Cslumlord in his Dmcity dreamF  
A faker with an Bbart form pulling Cmagic tricks on the Dmweak girls up his Fsleeve
And I'm choking right Bbmaj7along with the words in my Fthroat
I'm falling back in Bbmaj7love with the letter you Cwrote
And I think that I was Bbmaj7wrong, but I guess I don't Dmknow
                  C   Bb(strum twice)
I figure that I'll wait until you tell me so 
Dm  C  Bb  Dm  C  Bm    C
The longer that I'm Bbmaj7out here the better you Fsound
You're scrunching up your Bbmaj7face in this picture I Cfound
And I'm chasing after Bbmaj7you, steadily losing Dmground
I Cmiss you all the Ftime but I'm blocking it out
The longer that I'm Bbmaj7out here F  
The longer that I'm Bbmaj7out here C  
The longer that I'm Bbmaj7out here Dm  C  
                    Bb (strum twice)
The longer that I'm out here the better you sound.
