D
I've been running circles around
a night that never ends,
I've been chasing heartache, in a city and a friend
Bm
I've been with you so long, even seen
                        D
you lose it, but, who cares?
D
Racing down the Bowery,
on a crowded afternoon,
dripping from the downpour of your insecure typhoon
Bm
Can you even want me, or this
                           D
is just a way to keep you safe?

G              A             D
Take me, then lose me, then tell them
     G             A
I'm yours are you happy?...

Chorus:
                    Bm
Does it take you a long time?
                    A
does it make you upset?
                      D
does it make ya think everybody wants to be
        G
your friend?
                  Bm
I can give you a heartbeat,
                    A
I can give you a friend,
                     D
I can make you think everybody wants to be
  G
your friend

Drinking with your cell phone with
a smile on your face
Happy in success, but still
a thousand miles away
Is this what you wanted, is
this everything you had in store?

Take me, then lose me, then tell them I'm yours
Are you, happy?

Chorus

Take me, then lose me, then tell them I'm yours
Are you, happy?

I've been running circles round a night
that never ends
I've been chasing heartache, in a city and a friend
I've been with you so long, even seen you lose it,
but, who cares?

Chorus:
Does it take you a long time
Does it make you upset
Does it make you think everybody wants to be
your friend
I can give you a heartbeat,
I can give you a friend
I can make you think, everybody wants to be
your friend

G              A             D             G
Take me, then lose me, then tell them I'm yours
G              A             D             G
Take me, then lose me, then tell them I'm yours
G              A             D             G
Take me, then lose me, then tell them I'm yours
G              A             D             G
Take me, then lose me, then tell them I'm yours
