Verse 1:
G            Am              Bm              C
You used to live with me at night after the bars were closed,
            G           Am                Bm                  C
And your smile would obstruct my line of sight, and leave my heart exposed,
       G Am  Bm    C                 G
And all I'd want, all I want is you girl,
    Am         Bm           C
To know me, to hold me, to take up my whole mind,


Chorus: (x2)
G   Am   Bm     C                       G     Am  Bm  C
    O-oh-oh-oh-oh, but you're getting smaller


Verse 2:
Then I could hold you in my palm, the palm of my hand
And your hair would wrap around my thumb, like a wedding band,
In dreams, we'd kiss, we'd kiss just like before,
With full lips, and pressed hips, up against the door


Chorus


Bridge:
Am
  You were all I wanted,
C
  I was overwhelmed,
Em                         G
   And I swore that I was feeling things I'd never felt,
Am
  An empty nightstand,
C
  A packed suitcase,
Em                           G                             Am  C
  With every day that passes, you become a name with no face,


Verse 3: (acoustic guitar returns to finger-picking, see intro)
And now you live between my soul,
and my heart, my brain, my mind,
My blood, my bones, but even so,
girl I often find, that I,
I can't recall the way you were,
Your eyelids, your sweet voice, your features fade away
