Intro: A augmentedA E/G# F# minorF#m D MajorD  x2


Verse 1:
  A augmentedA
Oh Elise it doesn't
        E/G#
matter what you say
I just can't stay
      F# minorF#m
here every yesterday
Like keep on
D MajorD
acting out the same
The way we act out
A augmentedA
Every way to smile
      E/G#
Forget And make believe
we never needed
F# minorF#m
Any more than this
D MajorD
Any more than this


Interlude: A augmentedA E MajorE F# minorF#m D MajorD


Verse 2:
  A augmentedA
Oh Elise it doesn't
        E/G#
matter what you do
I know I'll never
    F# minorF#m
really get inside of you
       D MajorD
To make your eyes catch fire
The way they should
  A augmentedA
The way the blue
could pull me in
    E/G#
If they only would
If they only would
  F# minorF#m
At least I'd lose this
sense of sensing
D MajorD
something else
That hides away
  A augmentedA
But you and me
There're worlds to part
   E/G#
With aching looks
and breaking hearts
  F# minorF#m
And all your prayers
hands can make
  D MajorD
And Oh I just take as much

as you can throw
A augmentedA            E/G#
 And then throw it all away
          F# minorF#m
Oh I throw it all away
          D MajorD
Like throwing faces at the sky
Like throwing arms around

Chorus:
E MajorE
Yesterday
I stood and stared
   F# minorF#m
Wide eyed in front of you
    E MajorE
And the face I saw looked back
     F# minorF#m
The way I wanted to
   E MajorE
But I just can't
hold my tears away
  F# minorF#m
The way you do
 G+G          F# minorF#m
Elise believe I never wanted this
 G+G
I thought this time I'd
        F# minorF#m
keep all of my promises
 G+G
I thought you were the girl
     F# minorF#m
I always dreamed about
   G+G
But I let the dream go
    F# minorF#m
And the promises broke
    B minorBm
And the make believe ran out

Outro:
  A augmentedA
And every time I try
      E/G#
to pick it up
Like falling sand
  F# minorF#m
As fast as I pick it up
     D MajorD
It runs away through
my clutching hands
      A augmentedA
But there's nothing
else I can really do
    E/G#
There's nothing else
I can really do
    F# minorF#m
There's nothing else
          D(hold)
