Life On Eris


Tom: Am

Am


[Verse 1]
      Am
Won’t roll down the shades
     E
This bed’s staying made
     F                           C
The ‘Do Not Disturb’ won’t get turned

Am
It’s more than clear
           E
What’s not happening here
     F                          C
And after all this time I’ve learned


[Pre-Chorus 1]
                     Am
I probably should’ve cooled down
                     E
I probably should’ve walked away
                      F
I probably should’ve closed the door
                                    C
and just thought the things that I chose to say

                    Am
But I’m no good at letting things go
                E
I’m no good at letting things slide
                        F
I’m no good at letting doors stay closed
                             C
when it’s you on the other side


[Chorus]
Am                      C
   If you could let me in
                    Dm
If we could just be real for a minute
E
  No one has to win

Am                     C
   We could change it all
                     Dm
Break down this stonewall for a minute
E               Am
  Okay I’m listening
  C                         Dm
Ooooh  break down this stonewall
E
  Okay I’m listening


[Verse 2]
        Am
On the opposite edge
        E
At the end of the bed
     F                                 C
You act like you don’t hear me come in

  Am
I try to talk to you
    E
But what good would that do
      F                           C
Cause you’d just tell me “Go ahead”


[Pre-Chorus 2]
             Am
Go ahead and do what you’re gonna do
             E
Go ahead and say what you’re gonna say
              F
Cut until you find a nerve
             F
Pick another line to blur
             C
Go ahead and escalate

                 Am
You always gotta play this off
                 E
You always gotta play this down
                 F
You always gotta close it up
                              C
Before we get to play it out
Ooooh


[Chorus]
Am                      C
   If you could let me in
                    Dm
If we could just be real for a minute
E
  No one has to win

Am                     C
   We could change it all
                     Dm
Break down this stonewall for a minute
E                   Am
  Okay I’m listening
  C                      Dm       E
Ooooh  break down this stonewall


[Bridge]
Dm
   Why can’t you just get angry
Am
   Throw a plate, call me crazy
E                                    Am
   There’s always something you must say

That’s pushing you away

Dm                                   Am
   There you go changing the subject now
            Am                  E
I bring it up,and you check out
              E
Can I talk to you without
  E          E
Another stonewall?


[Chorus]
Am                      C
   If you could let me in
                    Dm
If we could just be real for a minute
E
  No one has to win

Am                     C
   We could change it all
                     Dm
Break down this stonewall for a minute
E               Am
  Okay I’m listening
 C                          Dm
Ooooh  break down this stonewall
E
  Okay I’m listening.
