[A]Oh Elise it doesn't matter what you s[E]ay
I just can't stay here every yes[F#m]terday
Like keep on acting o[D]ut the same the way we act out
[A]Every way to smile, forget, and [E]make-believe we never needed
[F#m]Any more than this, a[D]ny more than this

[A]Oh Elise it doesn't matter what you [E]do
I know I'll never really [F#m]get inside of you
To make your [D]eyes catch fire the way they should
[A]The way the blue could pull me in
If they [E]only would, if they only would
[F#m]At least I'd lose this sense of sensing [D]something else
That hides away

[A]From me and you there're worlds to part
With a[E]ching looks and breaking hearts
And [F#m]all the prayers your hands can make
Oh [D]I just take as much as you can throw
[A]And then throw it all away
[E]Oh I throw it all away
Like [F#m]throwing faces at the sky
Like [D]throwing arms round yes[E]terday I stood and stared
Wid[F#m]e-eyed in front of you
And the [E]face I saw looked back
The way I [F#m]wanted to
But I j[E]ust can't hold my tears away t[F#m]he way you do

El[G]ise believe I never wa[F#m]nted this
I [G]thought this time I'd keep all of my pro[F#m]mises
I [G]thought you were the girl always [F#m]dreamed about
But I [F#m]let the dream go, and the [D]promises broke
And the make-believe ran [A]out...

Oh [A]elise it doesn't matter what you [E]say
I just can't stay here every [F#m]yesterday
Like keep on acting [D]out the same
The way we act out
[A]Every way to smile, forget,
And [E]make-believe we never needed
[F#m]Any more than this
[D]Any more than this

[A]And every time I try to pick it [E]up
Like falling sand
[F#m]As fast as I pick it up
It runs [D]away through my clutching hands
But there's [A]nothing else I can really do
[E]There's nothing else
I can really do at [D]all...
