Capo 4th fret
(Chords relative to capo)
[C]Don't know if I'll make it through this winter [D]without you by my side
[G]I waited for you so long while I tr[C]aveled far and wide
Convinced myself there's no one better, so how can I deny
Your love, it's like a thorn into my side
My friends they understand me better but don't whisper goodnight
I want a lover and a sister, but we know that's not right
You used to listen to my music, I always wondered why
I wish I could pretend you make me try
I want the days to come, I want these sleepless nights to end
I lie here thinking how I lost you to all your stupid friends
You made me feel so foolish for the twenty-secondth time
Your love might be the last time that I try
Don't know if I'll make it through this winter without you on my own
I waited here for you forever, I can't believe you'd go
I may not have the answers, but I'd rather never know
Your love was such a heavy, heavy blow
[G]Goodnight, my love, you seemed so[C] nice, 'til I knew you[D] better
[G]Now I can tell you're always thinking t[C]wice about what might be[D] better
[C]On the outside, th[D]ere's no conscience, you[G]'re a victim of your cautiousness
[C]You don't try, you just lie there, hoping that so[D]meone will come to make it
[G]right...
