A5 It's been so long since I've been by myself A5 And I need this more than you will ever know A5 People like you and me never felt the breeze A5 People like you and me will never know the easy way A5 I scream into the wind and laugh G5 As the words slap me in the face A5 I would gladly trade a lifetime of convenience G5 For and honest day or two A5 It's just not the same when you're staring B5 Into a perfect golden sunset D5 And thinking about how you sold your soul G5 To send the rain away
A5 It's been so long since I've stood on my two feet A5 I'd really rather lay here and pretend A5 But people like you and me never get that peace A5 It comes from denying that everything is so screwed up A5 It's so screwed up B5 I stand on a building and throw up my arms to the sky D5 I swallow my pride and admit G5 That it's not always best to understand the reason why A5 It's just not the same when you wake up in the morning G5 With a smile on your face B5 When you know you lied yourself to sleep to make it better G5
