lyrics

CONVERSATIONS WITH YOU WHEN YOU'RE NOT THERE
==============================================
Gm D Gm D
C#m C E E7
(with capo:
Dm A Dm A
G#m G B B7)
B: Esprit d'Escalier is haunting me
G: A ghost of incoherency
B: We can only agree to disagree to agree
G: Just another 3a.m. Story
B: It seems so clear in my head
G: It's all fine til you speak
G: Then it gets mixed up
B: I know I sound abrupt
G: You're like a car alarm
B: That's my offensive charm

D Daug F A
G Bb D
(A Aaug C E
D F A)
This is how my body tells my brain that I'm in love
Conversations with you when you're not there
And so my brain screams back "My body, you're in love!"
Conversations with you when you're not there

G: My feelings for you are round the 80% mark
B: At best 20, mostly 10
G: I try to express it in words, it's just a mess
B: It happens time and time again
G: I have it all worked out...
B: ...while I'm not around
B: We're not made of plans
G: I don't understand
B: But on the other hand
G: We're like Rock and Sand

This is how my body tells my brain that I'm in love
Conversations with you when you're not there
And so my brain screams back "My body, you're in love!"
Conversations with you when you're not there

F#m Bm7 G A
(C#m F#m7 D E)
This is how my body tells my brain that I'm in love
Conversations with you when you're not there
And so my brain screams back "My body, you're in love!"
Conversations with you when you're not there
And so my brain screams back "My body, you're in love!"
Conversations with you when you're not there
I'd rather have conversations with you
When you're not there
You're not there
You're not there
You're not...
