 How can I think I'm standing strong, 
 4  -4    4   4  -3-3     4  3
 Yet feel the air beneath my feet? 
 5  -5   5 -4 4   -4    5 -5
 How can happiness feel so wrong? 
 5  -5   5-44  -4    4  4
 How can misery feel so sweet? 
 2   3   3   3  -3 -3     4   4
 How can you let me watch you sleep, 
 4   -4     4  4     -3  -3   3   3
 Then break my dreams the way you do? 
 5  -5   5-4    4  -4  5 -5
 How can I have got in so deep? 
 5  -5   5-4    4 -4    4    3
 Why did I fall in love with you?

 This is the closest thing to crazy I have e-ver been 
 2  3   -3   4 -3    2  3   5-5  5
 Feeling twenty-two, acting seventeen, 
 3    4 -4   5 -4   -4     4 -3  4  2 3   -3 4 -3
 This is the nearest thing to crazy I have e-ver known, 
 2 3  -3 4  -3  2  5 -5  5
 I was never crazy on my own... 
 4   6  -6 4    3    3       4-5    5 -4    4   3
 And now I know that there's a link between the two, 
-5 5   5    -4 -4  4 3    4   5-4  -4     4  4
 Being close to craziness and being close to you.

 How can you make me fall a-part 
 4   -4     4  4   -3   -3 4    3
 Then break my fall with loving lies? 
 5   -5  5-4  4 -4     5-5
 It's so easy to break a heart; 
 5   -5  5-4  4 -4     4    4
 It's so easy to close your eyes.

 How can you treat me like a child 
 4  -4    4 4    -3-3     3   3
 Yet like a child I yearn for you? 
 5  -5   5-4 4  -4    5 -5
 How can a-nyone feel so wild? 
 5  -5   5-4 4  -4    4  3
 How can a-nyone feel so blue?
