"How We Love" from the album Human Again By Ingrid Michaelson
Verse
E
I knew a man who was afraid to love
E
to lay his heart on the bathroom rug
CmA
he drank his coffee in the same old mug
E
and sat in silence 'til the world fell numb
E
until the day when a girl came by
E
she had eyes like the rising tide
CmA
he felt a sharpness deep inside
E
the kind of ache that can't be satisfied
Chorus
ABCmA
we hate the rain when it fills up our shoes
BCmAE
but how we love when it washes our cars
ABCmA
we love to love when it fills up the room
BCmAE
but when it leaves oh we're cursing the stars
Verse
E
so he turned to the radio
E
and he went to a picture show
CmA
tried to find someone else who knows
E
all the hurt that a heart can hold
E
she smelled like cinnamon and winter clove
E
and sparked like firewood inside a stove
CmA
wanted to ask her just to sit and stay
E
instead he watched as she walked away
Chorus
ABCmA
we hate the rain when it fills up our shoes
BCmAE
but how we love when it washes our cars
ABCmA
we love to love when it fills up the room
BCmAE
but when it leaves oh we're cursing the stars
