Verse:

D   A/E                      D/F#
How can I think I’m standing strong
    G                       D
Yet feel the air beneath my feet
Bm                A       G
How can happiness feel so wrong
F#m            A7      D
How can misery feel so sweet
D   A/E                      D/F#
How can you let me watch you sleep
     G                   D
Then break my dreams the way you do
Bm                 A     G
How can I have got in so deep
F#m               A7        D
Why did I fall in love with you

This is the
D                             Bm

This is the
D                             Bm

I was never crazy on my own
D         Bm                  G                Bb
And now I know that there’s a link between the two
D              Bm            A7             D
Being close to craziness and being close to you

Repeat verse and chorus in same way

Verse 2 lyrics:

How can you let me fall apart
Then break my fall with loving lies
It’s so easy to break a heart
It’s so easy to close your eyes
How can you treat me like a child
Yet like a child I yearn for you
How could anyone be so wild
How could anyone be so blue

After Chorus 2, instead of the between chorus and verse sequence:
