A Letter To Elise (The Cure)

A E Oh Elise it doesn't matter what you say Fismi I just can't stay here every yesterday D like keep on acting out the same the way we act out every way to smile forget and make-believe we never needed any more than this any more than this Oh Elise it doesn't matter what you do I know i'll never really get inside of you to make your eyes catch fire the way they should the way the blue could pull me in only would if they only would at least I'd lose this sense of sensing something else that hides away from me and you there're worlds to part with aching looks and breaking hearts and all the prayers your hands can make oh I just take as much as you can throw A E and then throw it all away Fismi oh I throw it all away like throwing faces at the sky like throwing arms round E yesterday I stood and stared Fismi wide-eyed in front of you E and the face I saw looked back Fismi the way I wanted to E but I just can't hold my tears away Fismi the way you do G Fismi Elise believe I never wanted this G Fismi I thought this time I'd keep all of my promises G Fismi I thought you were the girl always dreamed about G but I let the dream go Fismi and the promises broke and the make-believe ran out... SOLO: E Fismi (3x) E D A E Fismi D Oh Elise it doesn't matter what you say I just can't stay here every yesterday like keep on acting out the same the way we act out every way to smile forget and make-believe we never needed any more than this any more than this A E and every time I try to pick it up Like falling sand Fismi as fast as I pick it up D it runs away through my clutching hands A but there's nothing else I can really do E there's nothing else I can really do Fismi theré nothing else I can really do, D at all...
