In A Win Win Situation

in a win , win situation
this is so you can play it easily acoustic .
capo it up .
the cd is key of b; this is E

C#m A
i’ve noticed your design
F#m
cause i’m not blind .
i’m like a cigarette
A B
burning , burning every night .

C#m A
but there’s no ash that falls
F#m
there’s only telephone calls
in the afternoon ,
A B
stretching through a thousand walls .

C#m
so i’ll pray
A
for words to say
F#m A B
to make these miles disappear .

A B
if you can’t sleep alone ,
C#m C#m
i’m better off , i’m better off
A B
if you can’t sleep alone

C#m A
if we’re measuring with time ,
F#m
in seconds or in lifetimes ,
there’s no difference ,
A B
it’s constantly just passing by .

C#m A
but there’s nothing at all ,
F#m
no valium or slow songs to relax my view ,
A B
just you . maybe your new perfume .

C#m
so i’ll pray
A
for words to say
F#m A B
to make these miles disappear .

A B
if you can’t sleep alone
C#m C#m
i’m better off , i’m better off
A B
if you can’t hear the song
C#m C#m
then turn it off , then turn it off
A B
if you cast the first stone
C#m C#m
then throw them all , then throw them all

A B
E C#m F#m B

E
i start to sleep , but it’s not over .
C#m F#m
the second hand is moving slower now
B
i’d take it all back to start over again
E
just between the rock and paper ,
C#m
the scissors cut in so much deeper .
F#m
i’d take it all back ,
B
to start over again ,

E C#m F#m B
again , again , .
E C#m F#m B
again , again

E C#m F#m B
