What You Didnt Say

{intro} I can read your eyes just like a book You tell me different, but I know that look And I don't have to guess what's between the lines So what in the world am I still doing here You push me away when I get too near Saying love's too simple to analyze So why do I feel confused Why do I feel so used Like a worn-out thought you threw away It wasn't what you said, it's what you didn't say Where are the windows, where are the doors? I haven't the key to your heart anymore I haven't a clue to what's gone wrong 'Cause you look at me sometimes as if I weren't there You say you're listening, but you never hear The strains of silence have grown so strong I never wanted to doubt you But I'd be better off without you I'm no good at looking the other way It wasn't what you said, it's what you didn't say So look at me one last time With eyes that still know how to shine Hold me like you won't let go (etc.) But you let go anyway No one belongs where they're not wanted You're just a ghost, and my heart is haunted When I said goodbye, you didn't even beg me to stay It wasn't what you said, it's what you didn't say No baby, it wasn't what you said, it's what you didn't say Tab for intro and verse (not every note is included): E ----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| B ----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| G 0---0-----------|----0-----------|----0-----------|----0-----------| D --0---4---------|--0--02-----0---|--0---4---------|--0--02-----0---| A ----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| E 3---------------|3-------3-------|3---------------|3-------3-------| ^ . ^ . ^ . ^ . ^ . ^ . ^ . ^ . ^ . ^ . ^ . ^ . ^ . ^ . ^ . ^ .
