Verse 1
---------
E                         A           E
Sunshine you heal just as much as you hurt.
                       A           B
Regret in my veins and blood on my shirt.
  A                                    E
I sure must have had myself a personal best.
         A                                                   E      B
It takes filling my lungs up with smoke to get things off my chest.

Chorus 1
---------
A            E
Crossing the border,
Ab     C#m    B
wasted again,
A                    B        E
With her number on a Canadian ten.

Verse 2

E                        A          E
Oh mother, oh mother why do you complain?
                     A       B
I grew up alright so don't be ashamed.
A                                                    E
My mouth has been cleaner and I may have lost all my faith.
          A                                        E     B
'Til I believe in myself I can't give my conscience away.

Chorus 2
---------
       A             E
You're home with the dishes,
        Ab          C#m     B
And I'm out with my friends,
        A           B        E
Placing bets with a Canadian ten.

A            E
North of the border,
  Ab       C#m  B
A sin is a sin,
         A          B        E
When you pay with a Canadian Ten.

Verse 3
---------
E                          A              E
I searched for a reason to not search for you.
                                  A           B
But I feel like there's no place I haven't been through.
A                                                          E
I told myself don't fall in love when you don't know their name.
       A                                                      E      B
But my eyes are straight-wired to my heart and just bypass my brain.

Chorus 4
---------
    A            E
Sometimes I'm forgetful,
   Ab                C#m  B
So I'll start at the end,
             A              B        E
And call the number on this Canadian ten.
             A              B        E
And call the number on this Canadian ten.

    Am                      A#
but all that a stranger would see
        Dm           Gm               C     
is one girl swaying alone stroking her cheek

[Chorus]

      F         Am            Dm 
They say, "you're a little much for me

And then they are bored of me
             
                    F
I know that its exciting
                     Am
running through the night but
              Dm                Am

Better on my own

[Chorus]

      F         Am            Dm 
They say, "you're a little much for me
         Am     A#

[Outro]

They're gonna watch me disappear into the sun
                 Dm        F           A#
You're all gonna watch me disappear into the sun

VERSE 2: [same chords as VERSE1]
I’ve found the time to be alone I don’t know what you’re asking
I’m waiting by the telephone and you’re still barking
My heart stops it isn’t… going could you revive me
I think I’m lost without knowing so come and find me


PRE-CHORUS 2:  [same chords as PRE-CHORUS1]
‘Cause in the same space we’re disconnected and in your own mind you’re not attracted

Why Cry

[Verse 1]
 G                              D
You like New York City in the daytime
 Bm                   A
I like New York City in the nighttime
 G                          D
You say you like sleeping with the air off
Bm                  A
I don't, I need it on
G                  D
You like the light coming through the windows
 Bm                      A
I sleep late, so I just keep 'em all closed
G                  D
You ignore the music on the radio
Bm                 A
I don't, I sing-a-long


[Pre-Chorus]
G               D        Bm             A
I don't ask for you to change, baby no no no
    G              D          Bm    A
And you don't ask for me to change


[Chorus]
N.C.                     D
Tell me how we're not alike
       Bm               A
But we work so well and we don't even know why
G              D
Funny how the stars crossed right
       Bm                   A
'Cause we work so well and we don't even know why
 G              D
You can call it fire and ice
    Bm                  A
But we work so well and we don't even know why
G              D
We don't even know why, no no
Bm                          A
We don't even know why, no no no


[Post-Chorus]
N.C.
No no no no
D
We like it in the daytime
Bm                 A
We like it in the end of time
N.C.
No no no no
D
We like it in the daytime
Bm                 A
We like it in the end of time


[Verse 2]
G                        D
Cold outside and you're just in a T-shirt
Bm                   A
I have cold blood even in a sweater
G                         D
You start your night sippin' by the Kilo
Bm                   A
I don't, I know you know


[Pre-Chorus]
G               D        Bm             A
I don't ask for you to change, baby no no no
    G              D          Bm    A
And you don't ask for me to change



[Chorus]
N.C.                     D
Tell me how we're not alike
       Bm               A
But we work so well and we don't even know why
G              D
Funny how the stars crossed right
       Bm                   A
'Cause we work so well and we don't even know why
 G              D
You can call it fire and ice
    Bm                  A
But we work so well and we don't even know why
G              D
We don't even know why, no no
Bm                          A
We don't even know why, no no no


[Post-Chorus]
N.C.
No no no no
D
We like it in the daytime (we don't even know)
Bm                 A
We like it in the end of time (we don't even know)
N.C.
No no no no
D
We like it in the daytime
Bm                   A
(We don't even know, know, know, know, know)




[Bridge]
G                          D
Somehow we end up on the same side
Bm                          A
And you wouldn't think that we'd be alright
G                      D            Bm             A
Even our eyes are different colors, but we see fine
G                         D
Somehow we end up on the same side (up on the same side)
Bm                            A
And you wouldn't think that we'd be alright

(Think that we'd be alright)

G                      D            Bm             A
Even our eyes are different colors, but we see fine


[Chorus]

 N.C.                     D
(Oh)Tell me how we're not alike
       Bm               A
But we work so well and we don't even know why

('Cause we work so well and we don't even know why, why)

Verse 1
    D                              Bm7
We never spoke a word, but every thought she had 
                         G     A Asus A
I heard from across the room 
             D                               Bm7
If we were standin' face to face I couldn't find the words 
               G               A Asus A
To say give me one more move 
        G              A             G                   A
I don't even know her name, I guess foolish pride's to blame

And my heart won't tell my mind to tell my mouth what it should say

May have lost this battle, live to fight another day

Son, I missed my chance

Don't you let regret take place of the dreams you have to chase

Ask her to dance, go on, son

When your heart won't tell your mind to tell your mouth what it should say
