[Verse]
Bbm7
It's been a long, long time
            Bbm7/Eb       Eb7
Since I've memorized your face
Bbm7
It's been four hours now
            Bbm7/Eb               Eb7
Since I've wandered through your place
Bbm7
And when I sleep on your couch
Bbm7/Eb      Eb7
I feel very safe
Bbm7
And when you bring the blankets
 Bbm7/Eb       Eb7
I cover up my face
 
[Chorus]
   Bbm7
I do
 Ab     Eb
Love you
    Bbm7
I do
Ab     Eb
Love you
 
[Verse]
Bbm7
And when you play guitar
  Bbm7/Eb         Eb7
I listen to the strings buzz
Bbm7                    Bbm7/Eb      Eb7
The metal vibrates underneath your fingers
Bbm7
And when you crochet
        Bbm7/Eb        Eb7
I feel mesmerized and proud
Bbm7
And I would say I love you
    Bbm7/Eb        Eb7     Db
But saying it out loud is hard
 
[Outro]
    Ab/C                Eb
So I won't say it at all
Db     Ab/C               Eb
  And I won't stay very long
 
    Db      Ab/C     Bbm7      Ab
But you are life I needed all along
           Db        Ab/C
I think of you as my brother
Bbm7                   Eb
Although that sounds dumb
     Bbm7               Ab/F   Eb
And words are futile devices
