G
The shadows on ur wall reflect me
B7
Do you neglect them too
Em
And I thought I saw you on tv
C                         Cm
Were the cops were after you?

G
I said I’d be married by 40
B7
But that’s the best I could do
Em
And I’ll change everything about me
C                        Cm
But I’ll still resemble you

C                         Cm
But I’ll fold my clothes today
           G
and maybe I’ll wash my face
C                        Cm
Things will get better
G                      Gmaj7
things will get better
C               Cm                G
And I’ll watch tv and pretend I didn’t see how
C                      Cm
you’re doing better
G
you’re doing better than me

G
The buildings here are tall and ornery
B7
But they’re not at tall as you
Em
The city lights are bright upon me
C                                       Cm
But I still can’t see things through

It’s not fair that I care and you don’t even think of me
C                            Cm           G
it’s not fair that I care after years of disappointing

It’s not fair that I see you in me
