These Four Walls

(Ab)These four (Eb)walls,

(Bbm7)they whisper to me.

(Ab)They know a (Eb)secret

(Bbm7)I knew they would not keep.

(Fm)Didn't take (Eb)long for the (Bb7)room to fill with (Db)dust,

and (Ab)these four (Eb)walls came (Bbm7)down around us.

(Db)Must've been (Ab)somethin' sent me (Eb)out of my head,

with the (Db)words so (Ab)radical and (Eb)not what I meant.

(Fm)Now I wait for a break in the (Ab)silence,

'cause it's (Eb)all that you left.

Just (Db)me and these four walls again.

(Bbm7)It's hard now to let you be.

(Ab)I won't make (Eb)excuses;

(Bbm7)I've made my peace.

(Fm)Didn't take (Eb)long for me to lose the (Db)trust,

'cause (Ab)these four (Eb)walls were not strong enough.

Oh. (Db)me and these four walls again.

Yeah, it's difficult watching us (Ab)fade,

knowing it's all my fault, my mistake.

Yeah, and it's difficult

letting you down,

knowing it's all my fault you're not around.

(Db)Must've been (Ab)somethin' sent me (Eb)out of my head,

with the (Db)words so (Ab)radical and (Eb)not what I meant.

(Fm)Now I wait for a break in the (Ab)silence,

'cause it's (Eb)all that you left.

Just (Db)me and these four walls again.

(Eb)Again.

(Eb)Ooh, (Db)these four walls (Ab)again.
