A7sus2                       A9
I don't want to say "I love you"
A7sus2                       A9
That would give away too much.
F#m              F#mVar1    F#mVar2   F#mVar1   F#m
It's hip to be detached and precious,
F#m                 F#mVar3 B
The only thing you feel is vicious.

A7sus2                       A9
I don't want to say "I want you"
A7sus2                       A9
Even though I want you so much.
F#m              F#mVar1    F#mVar2   F#mVar1   F#m
It's wrapped up in conversation,
F#m        F#mVar3  B
It's whispered in a hush.

[Verse]
           D           
Though I'm frightened by the word,
           E
Think it's time I made it heard.

           A9             Dsus2
No more empty self possession,
              A9          Em
Visions swept under the mat.
            C          D
It's no New Years resolution,
                A
It's more than that.

[Chorus]
A7sus2        A9
Now I wake up happy
A7sus2         A9
Warm in lovers embrace.
F#m   F#mVar1     F#mVar2    F#mVar1    F#m
No one else can touch us
F#m         F#mVar3  B
While we're in this place.

[Verse]
           D           
So I'll sing it to the world
            E
This simple message to my girl.

           A9             Dsus2
No more empty self possession,
              A9          Em
Visions swept under the mat.
            C          D
It's no New Years resolution,
                A
It's more than that.


           D           
Though I'm frightened by the word,
           E
Think it's time I made it heard.
           D           
So I'll sing it to the world
            E                 A9
This simple message to my girl.

           A9             Dsus2
No more empty self possession,
              A9          Em
Visions swept under the mat.
            C          D
It's no New Years resolution,
                A
It's more than that.

           A9             Dsus2
Oh there's nothing quite as real
              A9          Em
As the touch of your sweet hands.
            C          D
I can't spend the rest of my life
                A
