The Same As Being In Love

         D
When you base
     C           Bm
Your whole identity
     Bb                 D
On reaction against somebody
         C
It’s the same as being in

D  F#m/C#  D/C  F  E

D
I tend to forget when I drink.
F#m/C#
I’m doing it again I think
  D/C
A hand to hold, an ego to flatter,
       F                      E
‘Cause you were the wineskin, I was the bladder.

D
Time passes, events fall away
         F#m/C#
(I don’t think they’ll hurry).
              D/C
Hurry up, I’m blacking out, high on the vapor
       F               E
‘Cause I was the typo, you were the liquid paper.

D                          F#m/C#
Talk it over, talk it, overtalk it.

The answer’s still the same:
     D/C
It’s discontent, humiliation
       F                      E
‘Cause you were the theme and I was the variation.

D                                     F#m/C#
Try to take a less dramatic course of action;
                      D/C
This attraction, introspection-diction predilection
   F                        E
is breaking my heart again, breaking my heart again.
