· D G (Bass notes)
[D]An empty papercup blows across the road
[G]Like it was late for work on the first day of spring
[D]I'll just stay here sitting on the curb collecting dust
[G]From all the years that the fever brings to mind
[D]If I give it time I will recognize the outline of a heart
[G]nothing more than styrofoam
[D]It's not that strong weathered from hanging on to the
[G]papercup full of dreams I live for
PRECHORUS:
[F#m/C#]And ther[D5]e will come a day w[F#m/C#]hen the dreams mig[D5]ht just blow away
[F#m/C#]That's w[D5]hen it all c[F#m/C#]ollided perfectly,[D5] oh can't you see that...
CHORUS:
D* Bm
Somebody needs you, somebody wants you to care
G* Asus
He will be waiting patiently for you in the hour you just can't win
BRIDGE:
(C2 G/B Asus) You just cant win (C2 G/B D) You just cant win
(C2 G/B Asus) You just cant win
[G]No [D/F#]no, when you just cant [Asus]win
[Asus]When you just cant [G]win, [D/F#]no, when you just cant [Asus]win
