A Letter to Elise
-----------------
A E
oh elise it doesn't matter what you say
Bm
I just can't stay here every yesterday
D
like keep on acting out the same
the way we act out
A
every way to smile
forget
E
and make-believe we never needed
Bm
any more than this
D
any more than this
A E
oh elise it doesn't matter what you do
Bm
I know i'll never really get inside of you
D
to make your eyes catch fire
the way they should
A
the way the blue could pull me in
E
if they only would
if they only would
Bm D
at least I'd lose this sense of sensing something else
that hides away
A
from me and you
there're worlds to part
E
with aching looks and breaking hearts
Bm
and all the prayers your hands can make
D
oh I just take as much as you can throw
A
and then I throw it all away
E
oh I throw it all away
Bm
like throwing faces at the sky
D
like throwing arms around
E
yesterday
I stood and stared
F#m
wide-eyed in front of you
E
and the face I saw looked back
F#m
the way I wanted to
E
but I just can't hold my tears away
F#m
the way you do
G F#m
elise believe I never wanted this
G F#m
I thought this time I'd keep all of my promises
G F#m
I thought you were the girl always dreamed about
Bm
but I let the dream go
D
and the promises broke
A
and the make-believe ran out...
A
so elise
E
it doesn't matter what you say
Bm
I just can't stay here every yesterday
D
like keep on acting out the same
the way we act out
A
every way to smile
forget
E
and make-believe we never needed
Bm
any more than this
D
any more than this
A E
and every time I try to pick it up
like falling sand
Bm
as fast as I pick it up
D
it runs away through my clutching hands
A
and there's nothing else I can really do
E
there's nothing else I can really do
Bm
there's nothing else I can really do
D
at all...

OH, ELISE IT DOESNT MATTER WHAT YOU SAY
JUST CANT STAY HERE EVERY YESTERDAY
KEEP ON ACTING, ACTING OUT THE SAMR WE ACT OUT
YESTERDAY TO SMILE FORGET
AND MAKE BELIEVE WE NEVER NEEDED ANY MORE THAN THIS
ANYMORE THAN THIS.
OH,ELISE IT DOESNT MATTER WHAT YOU SAY
I KNOW ILL NEVER REALLY GET INSIDE OF YOU
TO MAKE YOUR EYES CATCH FIRE THE WAY THEY SHOULD.
IF THE BLUE COULD PULL ME IN IF THEY ONLY COULD
IF THEY ONLY WOULD
PERHAPS ID LOSE THIS SENSE OF SENSING SOMETHING ELSE THAT HIDES AWAY
FROM ME TO YOU THEY'RE WORLD'S APART
WITH ACHING LIPS AND BREAKING HEARTS
AND ALL THE PRYERS YOUR HANDS CAN MAKE
OH I JUST TAKE AS MUCH AS YOU CAN THROW THEN GIVE IT ALL AWAY
OH I GIVE IT ALL AWAY
LIKE THROWING HALOS AT THE SKY
OH YESTERDAY I STOOD AND STARED WIDED EYED IN FRONT OF YOU
AND THE FACE I SAW LOOKED BACK THE WAY I WANTED TO
BUT I JUST CANT HOLD BACK MY TEARS THE WAY YOU DO
ELISE BELIEVE I NEVER WANTED THIS
I THOUGHT THIS TIME I'D KEEP ALL OF MY PROMISES
I THOUGHT YOU WERE THE GIRL I ALWAYS DREAMED ABOUT
BUT I LET THE DREAM GO
AND THE PROMISES WERE THE MAKE BELIEVE THAT I........

REPEAT 1ST VERSE
SPOKEN PART
EVERY TIME TRY TO PICK IT UP LIKE FALLING RAIN
AS FAST AS I PICK IT UP IT RUNS AWAY THROUGH MY CLUTCHING HANDS
OH THERES NOTHING MORE I CAN REALLY DO
THERES NOTHING MORE I CAN REALLY SAY
THERE'S NOTHING MORE I CAN REALLY DO AT ALL.
