A                       Bm
For 27 years I've been trying
                   G
to believe and confide in
                    D
different people I found
A                            Bm
Some of them got closer than others
                        G
and some wouldn't even bother
                    D
and then you came around
A                             Bm
I didn't really know what to call you
                      G
You didn't know me at all
                       D
but I was happy to explain
A                          Bm
I never really knew how to move you
                  G
so I tried to intrude through
                          D
the little holes in your veins

    A      G
And I saw you

Chorus:
                       D    A
But that's not an invitation
              G
that's all I get
                   D    A
If this is communication
        G
I disconnect
G
I've seen you, I know you
    D       F#m           Bm
but I don't know how to connect
Em A        G   D G D
so I disconnect

You always seem to know where to find me
And I'm still here behind you
In the corner of your eye
I'll never really learn how to love you
But I know that I love you
Through the hole in the sky
Where I see you

Chorus

                     E    B
Well this is an invitation
              A
it's not a threat
                    E    B
If you want communication
                 A
that's what you get
A
I'm talking and talking
   E            B           C#m
but I don't know how to connect

    A                          E     B  A
and I hold a record for being patient
                       E    B A
with your kind of hesitation
A
I need you, you want me
    E        G#m            C#m
but I don't know how to connect
F#m             B
so I disconnect
         E
I disconnect
