Beside You Now
V.1
GI know where I'm supposed to be
EmBeside you now, but they won't let me
CThey're Gtaking Cyou Daway
So here I lay,
Eventually I'll waste away and they'll come get me
To place me next to you
Right next to...

F#mBeautifGul, letting go of Emall we've held on to
CWhy can't GI, Cwhy can't DI?
F#mBeautifuGl, letting go of aEmll you know is true

V.2
And on and on and until
I see no good to be angry with myself
I'll toss and turn tonight
When did I get so uncivilized?
I could not awake from seeping
I could do just fine, for most of the time,
'Til I see my own reflection
So tell me lies, tell me sweet little lies
I could not continue sleeping
I could fool myself for most of the time,
‘Til I see my own reflection
'Cause that reminds me of...
