(Start soft picking, gradually build up to a full strum until after the bridge.) [Intro]
       Am          G                 C
It's a box with a key that can't be found

     Am            G           C
But maybe thats a fucked up metaphor

         Am           G
Yet you hope and you pray

        C         Am
It'll open up one day

        Am                 G            C
But for now you just keep lying on the floor
[Verse 1]
           Am            G                    C
You think maybe you can bust the thing right open

      Am                G             C
But sittin' there it frustrates you again

          Am               G
You pound at it with your fist

          C              Am
You get tired, you get pissed

        Am                 G                 C
Cuz the box might be the source of all your sin
(Am G C Am G C) [Chorus]
Am        G        C
So darling tell me

Am              G                C
Tell me how to find the goddamn key

          Am                     G
It's been lost since you've been gone

            C                Am
and so have I, it's been so long

      Am         G          C
Since you were here next to me
[Verse 2]
            Am          G                  C
It's like a box with a key that can't be found

         Am          G             C
You can open it but only in your dreams

     Am                G
And she's there in it too

         C              Am
Staring right back into you

         Am                 G                  C
You wake up and your heart tears right at the seams
[Chorus]
Am        G        C
So darling tell me

Am              G                C
Tell me how to find the goddamn key

          Am                     G
It's been lost since you've been gone

            C                Am
and so have I, it's been so long

      Am         G          C
Since you were here next to me
[Bridge]
Am        G            C
Cuz I don't know where

 Am      G        C
Where to go from here

Am       G      C              Am
Sometimes I wish   I could just

     G           C
Fly away and disappear
[Chorus]
Am        G        C
So darling tell me

Am              G                C
Tell me how to find the goddamn key

          Am                     G
It's been lost since you've been gone

            C                Am
and so have I, it's been so long

      Am         G          C
Since you were here next to me
[Outro]
       Am                G           C
Darling I wish you were here next to me
