G                    D
1. I've been the needle and the thread
           Am                                   C
   Weaving figure eights and circles round your head
   G                  D
   I try to laugh but cry instead
             Am                                  C
   Patiently wait to hear the words you've never said

   G                                     D
   Fumbling through your dresser door forgot what I was looking for
   Am                             C
   Try to guide me in the right direction
   G
   Making use of all this time
   D
   Keeping everything inside
   Am                              C
   Close my eyes and listen to you cry
   
   G               D
   I'm lifting you up
                   Em
   I'm letting you down
                   C
   I'm dancing til dawn
                   G
   I'm fooling around
                  D
   I'm not giving up
                   Em
   I'm making your love
                       C                     G
   This city's made us crazy and we must get out

2. This not goodbye she said
   It is just time for me to rest my head
   She does not walk she runs instead
   Down these jagged streets and into my bed

   Fumbling through your dresser door...
   
   I'm lifting you up...

   D            G             Am
   There's only so much I can do for you
   D     G                     Am
   After all of the things you put me through
