Verse 1:

         ( - )  
Lines on my head 

                     ( - ) 
from that one thing she said

               ( - ) 
She spoke of strangers 

                      ( - ) 
that don't sleep two a bed

             ( - )
Kept on trying, buying time,
 
               ( - )
not waiting on fate

                 ( - )
I somehow got the feeling 

                        
that I opened my eyes too late


Chorus:

                        V-3-2
I saw where you came from


Called out your name

      Gm11
But there's no answer

                        V-3-2
We lived on your doorstep


I made you my wife 

    Gm11
but I don't need that

Verse 2:
Lines on my face,while I laugh lest I cry
Speed city dirt and gritty waving me goodbye
So many people,my family of friends
Trying so hard to make me smile untill this heartache mends

Chorus:
I saw where you came from
called out your name
but there's no answer
We lived on your doorstep
I made you my wife but I don't need that

Verse 3:
Ice in her eyes,frozen tears would never be a surprise
You can't erase a dream you can only wake me up
My mind is turning slower,never to accept defeat
It don't matter where I live I still got a house to heat

Chorus:
I saw where you came from
called out your name
but there's no answer
We lived on your doorstep
I made you my wife but I don't need that
