                  C                
it's turning on MTV 
               G
when we were fourteen 
                      F
you said, "my moms asleep, 
               C
we won't get caught. 
                      G
what do you want to watch?" 

                       C 
and i could hear the traffic 
                      G
that i know you're ignoring 
              F
but i let it into my life 
     C                G
to thicken to air i breathe 


VERSE:
               C
it was at the bus stop that a woman cried 
             G
and i could tell she was different by the look in her eyes 
              F
and i don't know what she said 
       C                          G
but i felt what she meant in her honesty 

                    C
and i went to your house that night 
                          G
and i told you about the woman's eyes 

and the words in her mouth 
           F                    C              G
and how i wouldn't mind taking her advice one day 

                      C   G  F  G
but i'm the cowardly lion 


VERSE:
            C
i'll leave quietly 
          G
if that means 
           F               C
a better chance to commemorate what we had 
              G
when we were happy 


BDA K:
              C
this isn't a love song, no not in the least 
        G
i just miss you watching my tv 
           F
when i'm writing, 
                    G
so i can hear you laughing 

                        C
i swear to god i still hear you 

when i close my eyes 
           G
and you'd tell me 

i'm not going to die 
         F
like you used to 
          G
before i did this 


CHORUS:
            C
you're the sunlight 

that i wished would leave 
         G
i'm the raincloud 

i don't wanna be 
             F
because the more you're gone 
                 G
the more i grow pale
        C   G  F  G
i grow pale


CHORUS:
            C
you're the sunlight 

that i wished would leave 
         G
i'm the raincloud 

i don't wanna be 
             F
because the more you're gone 
                 G
the more i grow pale
        C   
i grow pale
