Chorus:

 A7sus2               A9A9
I don't want to say "I love you"

 A7sus2               A9A9
That would give away too much.

F# minorF#m       F#mVar1  F#mVar2  F#mVar1  F# minorF#m
It's hip to be detached and precious,
F# minorF#m         F#mVar3 BB
The only thing you feel is vicious.

 A7sus2               A9A9
I don't want to say "I want you"

 A7sus2               A9A9
Even though I want you so much.

F# minorF#m       F#mVar1  F#mVar2  F#mVar1  F# minorF#m
It's wrapped up in conversation,
F# minorF#m    F#mVar3 BB
It's whispered in a hush.

Verse:
      D MajorD
Though I'm frightened by the word,

      E MajorE
Think it's time I made it heard.

      A9A9        Dsus2Dsus2
No more empty self possession,

        A9A9       E minorEm
Visions swept under the mat.

       C majorC      D MajorD
It's no New Years resolution,

         A augmentedA
It's more than that.


Chorus:
 A7sus2        A9A9
Now I wake up happy

 A7sus2        A9A9
Warm in lovers embrace.

F# minorF#m  F#mVar1   F#mVar2  F#mVar1  F# minorF#m
No one else can touch us
F# minorF#m     F#mVar3 BB
While we're in this place.

Verse:
      D MajorD
So I'll sing it to the world

       E MajorE
This simple message to my girl.


      A9A9        Dsus2Dsus2
No more empty self possession,

        A9A9       E minorEm
Visions swept under the mat.

       C majorC      D MajorD
It's no New Years resolution,

         A augmentedA
It's more than that.


      D MajorD
Though I'm frightened by the word,

      E MajorE
Think it's time I made it heard.

      D MajorD
So I'll sing it to the world

       E MajorE          A9A9
This simple message to my girl.


      A9A9        Dsus2Dsus2
No more empty self possession,

        A9A9       E minorEm
Visions swept under the mat.

       C majorC      D MajorD
It's no New Years resolution,

         A augmentedA
It's more than that.


      A9A9        Dsus2Dsus2
Oh there's nothing quite as real

        A9A9       E minorEm
As the touch of your sweet hands.

       C majorC      D MajorD
I can't spend the rest of my life

         A augmentedA
Buried in the sand
