Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Em][A]
[Em][A]

[Verse 1]
[Em]It's been a long, long time
since I've [A]memorized your face
[Em]It's been four hours now
since I've [A]wandered through your place
[Em]And when I sleep on your couch
[A]I feel very safe
[Em]And when you bring the blankets
I [A]cover up my face

[Chorus 1]
I [Em]do, [A]love you
I [Em]do, [A]love you

[Interlude 1]
[Em][A]
[Em][A]

[Verse 2]
[Em]And when you play guitar
I [A]listen to the strings buzz
[Em]The metal vibrates
under[A]neath your fingers
[Em]And when you crochet
I feel [A]mesmerized and proud
[Em]And I would say I love you,
but [A]saying it out loud

[Outro 1]
is [G]hard
So I [D]won't say it at [Em]all
[G]And I won[D]'t stay very [Em]long
But [G]you are the [D]life
I [Em]needed all along
I think of [G]you as my [D]brother
[Em]Although that sounds dumb
And [G]words are [D]futile de[Em]vices
