Intro: |C |C |F |F (2x)
C Am
I'm gonna ask about your day
Em F
You'll just smile and look away as you turn the hall light out
C Am
You'll ask me how was work
Em F
Put on an old T-shirt as you turn the covers down
(Chorus)
G F G
We both know that everything has changed
Am G F
But it all still looks the same from the outside looking in
G F G
We both know it's never gonna last
C G/B Am
This ship is sinking fast, so we'll ride it down again
Dm G
And say good-night, because we just can't say goodbye

But the timing's always wrong

Just two bad actors in a play, don't know how to leave the stage
F
As the house lights all come on
(Chorus)

We both know it's never gonna last

Em F
How many times do we go down
C F
'Til we finally make it through
Em F
Oh, but something's got me chained and bound
C G
To throw it all away for you
C F
So I'll spend one more sleepless night
Em F
Pretend that everything's alright 'til the day begins again
(Chorus)

We both know that everything has changed

But it all still looks the same from the outside looking in
