Em                       G     Am 
There is a house in this town 
                             C         D     Em 
That our old son could never reach its arms around 
                       G     Am 
And if you walk in the door 
                       C   D         Em 
A spring of dark water overflows the floor 
  
  
            Cmaj7    Asus2 D  Em 
How am I supposed to lay 
            Cmaj7          Am      F       Em 
Without the love that only you can give to me 
            Cmaj7     Asus2  D        Em 
How am I supposed to  get    through 
               Cmaj7    Am  F   Bm  G#m  C#m  G#m 
These days are dark without you 
  
  
  
You're the ray in my lens 
        C# 
And the sand in my hands 
        B                     E                 G#m 
And the only beat to which my heart can dance 
                 
  
  
Your the mouse in the sheets 
        C# 
And the winds that are free 
        B                  E               Em 
And the only words I am compelled to read 
  
  
                          G      Am 
There was a heart in this chest 
                             C    D           E 
So confident that our future only brought the best 
                             G      Am  
But now that's just an empty space 
                            C        D      Em 
Where only light projecting pictures of her face 
  
             
            Cmaj7    Asus2 D  Em 
How am I supposed to lay 
            Cmaj7          Am     F       Em 
Without the love that only you can give to me 
            Cmaj7    Asus2  D         Em 
How am I supposed to get    through 
               Cmaj7    Am  D    Em 
These days are dark without you
