Intro: E  G#m (x2)

[Verse]
EI wanna wake you up
G#mI can hardly hear my footsteps
EIn the falling darkness
G#mI can barely wait to see you
AIn your apartment
          B             G#m                  (A)We were heading for the better times we wanted
A                        BWe were sorry that the distance
      G#m                (E)Took more than we prepared

E                                       (G#m)We could do it again (we could do it again)
G#mJust another ending this time
E                                       (G#m)Were you ever scared? (were you ever scared?)
G#mDid you seek for reasons to get
A                        BFar away from all the travelling
    G#m                 (A)And talking on the phone?
A                        BCan't you see it's only what we've been
G#m                   (A)Can't you see the threats?

[Chorus]
BCan't you see your own obsessions?
C#mCan't you see your count in this?
A                  F#mCan't you see I'm only happy
C#mWhen you're in the house?
BYou should know I'm only waiting
C#mFor the times we never had
A                    F#mYou should know it's all because of
C#mYou're not in the house

[Verse, same chords as before]
I wanna say it straight (I wanna say it straight)
We could be whatever we dreamed
Something really good (something really good)
Just let yourself get to it
In your apartment
We were heading for the better times we wanted
We were sorry that the distance
Took more than we prepared

[Chorus, same as before]

Interlude ("You're not in the house..."):  
F#m  A  C#m  C#m  (x3) 

[Chorus, same chords but different lyrics]
Can't you see we're going nowhere?
Can't you see your count in this?
Can't you see I'm only happy
When you're in the house?
Can't you see my only vision?
Can't you see I'm counting this?
You should know I can't be happy
Till you're in the house

End the song with a C#m!
