[Verse]
                  C       F      C
Sometimes I don't get you

             F       C      F      C     C7
It's like an endless night

      F     Bb
All I do is waste

        F            Bb          C     F    C    F
And the look on your face like a knife

     Dm        Em          F
Am I fooling myself making believe

  Dm        Em       F
Together as one happily

    Fm            Em       Dm
Sometimes I don't get you

            Am    G
And I never lie
[Verse]
                  C        F     C
Sometimes I don't know you

          F        C      F     C     C7
It's like we never met

         F             Bb
And what seems fine by me

   F        Bb      C     F     C     F
Is your litany of regrets

       Dm          Em               F
Am I'm clinging to something that's passed

         Dm      Em        F
That was never intended to last

    Fm            Em       Dm
Sometimes I don't know you

               Am    G
Messes with my head
[Bridge]
Em                        Dm
Sometimes I think I don't know

                C     F     C    C7
How to be on my own

    Em                       Dm
Sometimes I won't answer the door

               C     F     C    C7
Or talk on the phone

Em             F
With you by my side

Em              F
I don't have to hide

    Dm           Em
The twig needs a trunk

        F         Dm       G      F
So that it can continue to grow

    Dm           Em
The twig needs a trunk

        F         Dm       G      F
So that it can continue to grow

Sometimes I don't get you

          F           C       F      C     C7
It's like I'm lost at sea

             F          Bb
But then you say you're okay

    F           Bb               C      F     C    F
And I know that you'll stay with me

          Dm          Em    F
Though it never comes soon enough

      Dm              Em        F
We'll get through the difficult stuff

   Fm          Em      Dm
No matter what we do

              Em       F
I'll be there for you

               Em      Dm
And maybe I'll get you

               Am     Fm     C
And you'll get me
