Song: They Keep Telling Me I'll Move On But They've Never
Seen The Sparkle In Your Eyes When You Used To Look At Me
* = let ring
[Intro]
D D Bm A G
[Verse 1]
D AI could find your parfume in a crowd a mile away
Bm BmAnd I turn my head for strangers with your color in their eyes.
D AThe way your whole face changes in the second that you smile
Bm Ais the closest thing to holy that I felt in a long while.
D AYou used to look at me like I was worth the time you lose.
Bm A*Now you're sitting right beside me and I've already lost you.
[Chorus]
D AYou're the first thing in my head before I open up my eyes
D GYou're in every empty room, in every song I've memorized.
D AI could drive a thousand miles and never get away.
D G'Cause you're not a place I left - you're every single day.
D AAnd I know I should be over it, I know I should be done.
D A GBut I take you at your worst before I take another one.
D AThere will never be a version of my life that isn't you.
D* A* G* DAnd I stop pretending that there's something I can do.
[Verse 2]
D AI know the sound your voice makes when you're lieing to be kind.
Bm BmI hear it every single time and I pretend that I Am blind.
D AI know the songs you put on when you think that noone hears.
Bm BmAnd I know you've been somewehre else for weeks, maybe years.
D AI know you're well enough to know you made your mind up long ago.
Bm AAnd I'm still falling harder while I'm watching you let go.
[Chorus]
D AYou're the first thing in my head before I open up my eyes
D GYou're in every empty room, in every song I've memorized.
D AI could drive a thousand miles and never get away.
D G'Cause you're not a place I left - you're every single day.
D AAnd I know I should be over it, I know I should be done.
D A GBut I take you at your worst before I take another one.
D AThere will never be a version of my life that isn't you.
D* A* GAnd I stop pretending that there's something I can do.
[Bridge]
D* A*I can hear how it sounds, I know how it must look.
Bm* A*I should be angry, I should leave, I should have close the book.
D ABut every road I try to take just leads me back to you.
Bm AAnd everybody says I'll heal, I don't know if that's true.
D* A*I'm not asking you to stay, I gave that up a while ago.
Bm* AI just don't know how to be a person who can let you go.
[Chorus]
D* A*You're the first thing in my head before I open up my eyes
D* GYou're in every empty room, in every song I've memorized.
D AI could drive a thousand miles and never get away.
D G'Cause you're not a place I left - you're every single day.
D AAnd I know I should be over it, I know I should be done.
D A GBut I take you at your worst before I take another one.
D A*There will never be a version of my life that isn't you.
D* A* G DAnd I stop pretending that there's something I can do.
