of Montreal – The You I Created (Guitar)

C
It's hard to know exactly

Am
when my dreams got weird

F                  Em                C
I tense up and get antsy when you're near

C
But nightly you appear to me

Am
ghostly in my head

F                 Em              C
but I never can remember what you said

           F
It must be something reassuring

C
something sweet and kind

G                                C
something you would never say in real life

              F
Where does it go in the morning

   C
It slipped out of my hand

       G               
Eating breakfast with my other thoughts

 C      
away from wakeful lands

             F
Where is the you I created

    C
the you that I adore?

G                             C
When my eyes are open I don't see you anymore

C
It's hard for me to fathom

Am
that you disappeared

F               Em             C
and turned into exactly what I feared

C
But every night you sing to me

Am
when my eyes are closed

      F           Em            C
But I never can remember how it goes

           F
It must be something undeserving

C
only in my mind

G                                 C
Something you would never sing on your time

        F
It disappears without warning

   C
It shifts like grains of sand

    G     
Galavanting with some other dreams

  C
I didn't understand

             F
Where is the you I created

    C
the you that I adore?

G                             C
When my eyes are open I don't see you anymore

    C
But nightly you appear to me

Am
ghostly in my head

      F           Em              C
but I never can remember what you said
