How can I

H/F#

think I'm standing

E/G#

strong

Yet

A

feel the air beneath my

E

feet?

C#m

How can happiness

C#m/H

feel so

A

wrong?

G#m

How can misery

H9

feel so

E

sweet?

H

E

How can you

H/F#

let me watch you

E/G#

sleep

Then

A

break my dreams the way you

E

do?

C#m

How can I have got

C#m/H

in so

A

deep?

G#m

Why did I fall in

H9

love with

E

you?

H

This is the

E

closest thing to crazy I have

C#m

ever been

Feeling

F#m

twenty-two, acting

H

seventeen

This is the

E

nearest thing to crazy I have

C#m

ever known

I was

F#m

never crazy

Am

on my own:

And

E

now I know

C#m

that there's a

A

link between the

C

two

E

Being close to

C#m

craziness and

H

being close to

E

H/F#

you

E

How can you

H/F#

make me fall a

E/G#

part

Then

A

break my fall with loving

E

lies?

C#m

It's so easy to

C#m/H

break a

A

heart

G#m

It's so easy to

H9

close your

E

eyes

H

E

How can you

H/F#

treat me like a

E/G#

child

Yet

A

like a child I yearn from

E

you?

C#m

How can anyone

C#m/H

feel so

A

wild?

G#m

How can anyone

H9

feel so

E

blue?
