[ verse 1 ]

E A
danny ran into some complications
E A
he falls asleep during conversations
E A
he’s gotta search the street when he’s on vacation
E A
the worst thing is that i’m in the same situation

[ chorus ]
A B E
and all i do is sit and think about you
A B E
if i knew what you’d do
A B E
collapse my veins wearing beautiful shoes
A B E
it’s not living if it’s not with you

[ verse 2 ]
E A
and danny says we’re living in a simulation
E A
but he works in a petrol station ( selling petrol )
E A
he says it all began with his operation
E A
and i know you think you’re sly but you need some imagination

[ chorus ]
A B E
and all i do is sit and think about you
A B E
if i knew what you’d do
A B E
collapse my veins wearing beautiful shoes
A B E
it’s not living if it’s not with you
A B E
all i do is sit and drink without you
A B E
if i choose then i lose
A B E
distract my brain from the terrible news
A B E
it’s not living if it’s not with you

[ bridge ]
E
i can’t stop sweating or control my feet
A
i’ve got a twenty – stone monkey that i just can’t beat

and there’s a feeling , you’re replacing embrace
