[intro]
Gmaj7 G6
I can read your eyes just like a book
Gmaj7 G6
You tell me different, but I know that look
C C Gmaj7 G6
And I don''''t have to guess what''''s between the lines
So what in the world am I still doing here
You push me away when I get too near
Saying love''''s too simple to analyze
D C
So why do I feel confused
D C
Why do I feel so used
C C Am
Like a worn-out thought you threw away
D Gmaj7 G6 Gmaj7 G6
It wasn''''t what you said, it''''s what you didn''''t say
Where are the windows, where are the doors?
I haven''''t the key to your heart anymore
I haven''''t a clue to what''''s gone wrong
''''Cause you look at me sometimes as if I weren''''t there
You say you''''re listening, but you never hear
The strains of silence have grown so strong
I never wanted to doubt you
But I''''d be better off without you
I''''m no good at looking the other way
It wasn''''t what you said, it''''s what you didn''''t say
Em C
So look at me one last time
D G
With eyes that still know how to shine
Em C
Hold me like you won''''t let go
Am D Gmaj7 G6 Gmaj7 G6 (etc.)
But you let go anyway
No one belongs where they''''re not wanted
You''''re just a ghost, and my heart is haunted
When I said goodbye, you didn''''t even beg me to stay
It wasn''''t what you said, it''''s what you didn''''t say
No baby, it wasn''''t what you said, it''''s what you didn''''t say
