Capo: 3rd fret
[Intro]
FM7 Am G
But when I close my eyes the silence gets too much
Am FM7 Am N.C.
Isn't it lovely the way it works for us?
[Chorus]
FM7 Am G
I wish I could be the way that you see me
Am FM7 Am G
I wish I could dream the same time you're sleeping
Am FM7 Am G
Open up and be the way that you see me
Am FM7 Am G
I wish I could dream the same time you're sleeping
[Verse 1]
Am FM7 Am
I wish we had the same dreams but I haven't been dreamin'
G Am
I got a clouded darkness over me, suppressing my feelings
FM7 Am
I'm seeking meanings of Earth, show me the places to search
G N.C.
It's way harder seein' clearly when my hand's up your skirt
FM7 Am
When it's over, I'll be sittin' inside my car
G Am
And regrettin' all that I did, write a tally on my heart
FM7 Am
Yeah, I hope you leave me soon 'cause I keep getting more attached
G Am
Just whisper me to sleep, just slip the knife in my back, uh
[Bridge]
FM7 Am G
But when I close my eyes the silence gets too much
Am FM7 Am G
Isn't it lovely the way it works for us?
Am
But when, but when
[Verse 2]
FM7
My mentality actually going shit, uh
Am G
Watching all their happiness, I'm practically sick
FM7
Yeah, you don't see that I'm a kid
with all these problems evolving inside of me
Am G
I'm seeing two of you and you don't see a single flaw in me, yeah
FM7
Openin' and closing the book, I'm tryna learn from it
Am G
I believe in healing it, but nothing is permanent
FM7
Wisdom what I'd like, my decision-making game is weak
Am G
Weaker than you think, I am not nowhere close to what I wanna
[Chorus]
FM7 Am G
Be (Be, be, be, be, be) the way that you see me
Am FM7 Am G
I wish I could dream the same time you're sleeping
N.C. FM7 Am G
I wish I could be the way that you see me
Am FM7 Am G Am
I wish I could dream the same time you're sleeping
[Post-Chorus]
FM7 Am G
But when I close my eyes the silence gets too much
Am FM7 Am G
Isn't it lovely the way it works for us?
[Verse 3]
Am FM7
Every second I mess up for like the third time
Am G
you shoulda left the first time the worst time
Am
and everything decrepit but its alright
FM7 Am
I swear that you're the pinnacle, feelings for you ain't minimal
G Am
They overflow, they never oversowed, I wasn't into
N.C. Am
All my BS, workin' on my patience
G Am
Day feel like a week, I come back giving you the same shit
FM7 Am
You're parents probably hate me, staying can be dangerous
G
'Cause my love is potent, only you can help me change it, yeah
[Outro]
FM7 Am G
But when I close my eyes the silence gets too much
Am FM7 Am G
Isn't it lovely the way it works for us?
Am
But when, but when
(But when I close my eyes
The silence gets too much
Isn't it lovely the way it works for love?)
I wish I could be the way that you see me
I wish I could dream the same time you're sleeping
(Dream, the same time you're sleeping)
Open up and be the way that you see me
I wish I could dream the same time you're sleeping
I wish we had the same dreams
But I haven't been dreaming
I got a cloud of darkness over me, suppressing my feelings
I'm seeking meanings of Earth
Show me the places to search
It's way harder seeing clearly when my hand's up your skirt
When it's over I'll be sitting inside my car
And regretting all that I did
Write a tally on my heart
Yeah, I hope you leave me soon
'Cause I keep getting more attached
Just whisper me to sleep
To slip the knife in my back
But when I close my eyes
The silence gets too much
Isn't it lovely the way it works for love?
My mentality actually going shit
Watching all their happiness, I'm practically sick
Yeah you don't see that I'm a kid
With all these problems evolving inside of me
I'm seeing two of you
And you don't see a single flaw in me
Opening and closing it, but
I'm trying to learn from it
I believe in healing it, but
Nothing is permanent
Wisdom what I lack
My decision-making game is weak
Weaker than you think I am
I'm nowhere close to what I want to be
Be the way that you see me (Be, be, be, be, be, be)
I wish I could dream the same time you're sleeping (Yeah, dream, dream, dream, dream)
I wish I could be the way that you see me
I wish I could dream the same time you're sleeping
But when I close my eyes
The silence gets too much
Isn't it lovely the way it works for love?
Every second I mess up for like the third time
You should've left the first time, the worst time

The silence gets too much
Isn't it lovely the way it works for love?
