Verse 1:
C#C# F#F#
It's the tearing sound of love-notes
G#G# E MajorE BB
Drowning out these gray stained windows
C#C# F#F#
And the view outside is sterile
G#G#
And I'm only two cubes down
E MajorE BB C#C# F#F#
I'd photocopy all the things that we could be
G#G# E MajorE BB
If you took the time to notice me
C#C# F#F#
But you can't now, I don't blame you
G#G# E MajorE BB
And it's not your fault that no one ever does
Chorus:
E MajorE A#A#
But you don't work here, anymore
BB A augmentedA G#G#
It's just a vacant three-by-four
E MajorE A#A#
And they might fill your place
BB A augmentedA G#G#
A augmentedA temporary stand-in for your face
E MajorE A#A#
This happens all the time
BB A augmentedA G#G#
And I can't help but think I'll die, alone
Verse 2:
C#C# F#F#
So, I'll spend my time with strangers
G#G# E MajorE BB
A augmentedA condition and it's terminal
C#C# F#F#
In this water-cooler romance
G#G#
And it's coming to a close
E MajorE E MajorE C#C# F#F#
We could be in the park and dancing by a tree
G#G# E MajorE BB
Kicking over blades we see
C#C# F#F#
Or a dark beach with a black view
G#G# E MajorE BB
And pin-pricks in the velvet catch our fall
Chorus:
E MajorE A#A#
But you don't work here, anymore
BB A augmentedA G#G#
It's just a vacant three-by-four
E MajorE A#A#
And they might fill your place
BB A augmentedA G#G#
A augmentedA temporary stand-in for your face
E MajorE A#A#
This happens all the time
BB A augmentedA G#G#
And I can't help but think I'll die, alone
