[Intro]
Ebmaj7 Cm7 F F7
Ebmaj7 Cm7 F
[Verse 1]
Ebmaj7
I'm exhausted watching
Cm7
like Claire Danes
F
Through the water,
F7
kitchen light like blades
Ebmaj7 Cm7
Through your body,
F
the party's ablaze
Ebmaj7
We grew apart when you
Cm7
were fighting with your sister
F
I don't think I realised
F7
how horribly I miss you
Ebmaj7 Cm7
Now regret is flowering inside
F
me while I'm scooping ice
[Chorus]
Ebmaj7
Hope you know that I,
Cm7 F F7
I just don't know what to do
Ebmaj7 Cm7 F F7
'Cause I only want to be with you
[Verse 2]
Ebmaj7
I remember there was
Cm7 F
something strangely romantic
F F7 Ebmaj7 Cm7
In our friendship, we were dramatic
F F7
I wept in your arms
Ebmaj7 Cm7
Talking for hours on thе gravel,
F
letting our backs burn
F
Walking to Boxers linking pinkiеs,
F7 Ebmaj7
wearing matching pearls
And now I'm struggling,
Cm7 F
I'm choking up without the words
[Chorus]
Ebmaj7 Cm7
Hope you know that I,
Cm7 F F7
I just don't know what to do
Ebmaj7 Cm7 F F7
'Cause I only want to be with you
Ebmaj7 Cm7
I just miss your voice, say
you've been alright
F
Callin' when you're lonely,
F7
late at night
Ebmaj7 Cm7 F F7
'Cause I only want to be with you
[Bridge]
Ebmaj7 Cm7
So I make my way over as
the white lightning zigzags
F
And you're with Ahmed,
F7
plum red slacks and tequila fraser
Ebmaj7 Cm7
And you laugh the same, hand on mouth '
cause you hate your teeth
F
And I love your teeth and
I'm scared to speak
N.C.
'Cause I catch a whiff of
your rosetip tea
[Chorus]
Ebmaj7 Cm7
But I, I just don't know
F F7
what to do
Ebmaj7 Cm7 F F7
'Cause I only want to be with you
Ebmaj7 Cm7
I just miss your voice, say
you've been alright
F
Callin' when you're lonely,
F7
late at night
Ebmaj7 Cm7 F
'Cause I only want to be with you
[Outro]
F F7 Ebmaj7
Only want to be with you
Cm7 F
I only want to be with you
F F7 Ebmaj7 Cm7 F F7
Only want to be with you
