The eyes take notes and the body collects
You're the ghost, you're a comet of the opposite sex

D#m
I was where you belong, you're a
don't-know-what-you-got-'til-it's-gone

Chorus:
F#
We take the one we think we deserve
C#
And slowly try to make it all work
B                             C#
Hurting you the way I was hurt
F#
And every time we waste, it falls apart
C#
Busy outlining the shape of your heart
B                             C#

don't-know-what-you-got-'til-it's-gone

Chorus

How will I know?
How will I know?

Chorus

We think we deserve
We make it all work
The way I was hurt

The shape of your heart
The shape of your heart
