Wake up and try

	   C#m
you're not listening

	      G#m
and neither am i

	  A		   E
but it's only a matter of time

		B		
before we're walking out the door

E		   B
sit with me on the bed

	  C#m		    G#m
and stop pacing and pacing instead

	 A		  E
cuz it's only a matter of when

		E		   B
i want you to put your hands on my face

	 C#m		   G#m
run them over and over and trace

     A			    E
the lines that are starting to indicate

		B
how long i've been in this place

     E		       B
the sun shines all day

        C#m			 G#m
on the curb where our valuables lay

         A		 E
waiting all to be taken away

	  B		  A
like we brought them in before

E		      B
stand with me in the den

that's white walls and bare carpet again

	A			E
it was warm now it's empty and dead

     E		 A			 
and oh before we go

A
goodbye tv trays

A
goodbye baby clothes
