Matchbox Twenty - Busted

From "Yourself Or Someone Like You" (1996)
(Rob Thomas)

[Em] I forget when word's were only word's
she knows the party makes me nervous
In this stage we can't get hurt
Don't try to understand me
[C] We're too cool to be a[D]lone
but not too crazy to get [Em]busted

I [Em]found out one life just ain't enough
I need another soul to feed on
I'm the flame I can't get burnt
I'm wholly understated
[C] But I found silence in this [D]space
an on and off again at[Em]traction
[C] and I need such amazing [D]grace
Heaven sweep me away

CHORUS:
[Em] Love, don't change, don't [G]come around here
Don't [D]where my heart on your [C]sleve like a high school [Em]letter
Don't strain, 'cause [G]nothing ever comes of it
And the [D]people we've become
Well, they've [C]never been the people who [D]we [Em]are

[Em] I strap on one horse and pray for luck
I dug another hole to bleed
I know exactly how this work's
I need a new feel dirty
[C] I don't need you crowding up my [D]space
I just want to get in[Em]side you
[C] You can't believe the hearts you [D]saved
giving something away

CHORUS (x2)

[Em] I dreamed that the world was crumbling down
We sat on my back porch and [C]watched it
[D] Yeah, well [Em]I dreamed that the building's all fell down
We sat on my back porch and we [C]watched it
Yeah well [Em]I dreamed that the world was crumbling [D]down
We sat on my back porch and [C]watched it
In my head I heard a [D]sound like fifteen stranger's dancing
But [Em]oh how I want you to know me oh [D]how I want you to know me
[C]Oh, how I wish I was somebody else,
Baby [D]oh how I wish you could [C]know [D]oh me

CHORUS
