If I say (A)rain, then you say (G)sun. If I say (G)yes, then (D)you say (G)no. It seems be (A)fore we start, we’re (G)done. We e ven (Dm7)ar gue at hel (C)lo. If I say, (G)“Share with me this (Am7)small (D)um (G)brel la…” I say, “Who (G)cares if I get (A7sus4)wet?” We are as (D7)dif f’rent as the (G)morn ing (D)and the (Em7)night. No, we’re as (D)dif f’rent as the (Dm7)win ter (G7)and the (C)spring. We al ways (G)seem to fight. We dis a (G)gree on ev ’ry (F)thing. And (D7sus4)yet, you (D)make me (Em)smile, you (Bm)make me (C)laugh, you (G)make me (Am)care. (D)How can I ex (G)plain? In (D)side my (Em)heart I (D)feel a (C)pain when (G)you’re not (F)there.
