D          Bm
I just don't know the words
   Em7
Or how to conjugate them
              D          Bm
Was it really past tense I heard
   Em7
Or was it present perfect
               D      Bm
Maybe we could forget the time
    Em7
You faced that friend without me
               D       Bm
Maybe we could go back to mine
   Em7
Pretend it never happened

[Pre-Chorus]

F#m                           Em7
Oh, when you’re always out of time
                        Dmaj7
When you say it will be fine

When I just can’t find the line
F#m                     Em7
Oh, hope I know what to say
                      
When you throw it all away

D Bm Em7 x2

[Chorus]

Sorry baby
          D         Bm
I’ve been drifting again
      Em7
Could you repeat the question
             D      Bm
No I guess I do not know when
   Em7
It first became a problem
                D        Bm
Sorry that it's all such a mess
    Em7
The words they seem to leave me
              D           Bm
Didn't really quite catch the rest
    Em7
Not keen on it repeating

[Pre-Chorus]

F#m                           Em7
Oh, when you’re always out of time
                        Dmaj7
When you say it will be fine

When I just can’t find the line
F#m                     Em7
Oh, hope I know what to say
                      Dmaj7
When you throw it all away

When you throw it all away

[Interlude]

Dmaj7 Bm7 x2
                  Dmaj7      Bm7       Em7
Sorry baby I just don’t know the words
              Dmaj7      Bm7     Em7
Was it really past tense I heard
             Dmaj7  Bm7      Em7
Maybe we can forget the time
             Dmaj7   Bm7     Em7
Maybe we can go back to mine

Dmaj7 Bm7

[Outro]
                            Dmaj7
Well I think that I’ve been drifting
             Bm
Without you, drifting
                       Em7
I think that I’ve been drifting

Without you, drifting
                            Dmaj7
Well I think that I’ve been drifting
             Bm
Without you, drifting
                       Em7
I think that I’ve been drifting

Without you, drifting
                               Dmaj7
And now I know that you’ve been gone
