Em D Cadd9                                     G Cadd9 (2x)
She said it's cold outside and she hands me my raincoat
Em D Cadd9                             G Cadd9 (2x)
She's always worried about things like that
Em D Cadd9                                             G Cadd9 (2x)
She says it's all gonna end and it might as well be my fault

[Pre-Chorus]
Em           D                Cadd9
And she only sleeps when it's raining
D                        Cadd9
And she screams, and her voice is straining


[Chorus]
             G  D  Cadd9
And she says baby
           D                  G  D  Cadd9
It's three a.m. I must be lonely
   D          G  D  Cadd9
When she says baby
       D                              Em
Well I can't help but be scared of it all sometimes
        Cadd9
And the rain's gonna wash away I believe it

[Verse 2]
Em D Cadd9                                                G  Cadd9 (2x)
She's got a little bit of something, god it's better than nothing
Em D Cadd9                                                     G  Cadd9 (2x)
And in her color portrait world she believes that she's got it all
Em D Cadd9                                         G  Cadd9 (2x)
She swears the moon don't hang quite as high as it used to

[Pre-Chorus]
Em           D                Cadd9
And she only sleeps when it's raining
D                        Cadd9
And she screams, and her voice is straining

[Chorus]
             G  D  Cadd9
And she says baby
           D                  G  D  Cadd9
It's three a.m. I must be lonely
   D          G  D  Cadd9
Oh, when she says baby
       D                              Em
Well I can't help but be scared of it all sometimes
        Cadd9
And the rain's gonna wash away I believe this

[Verse 3]
Em D Cadd9                                              G
She believes that life isn't made up of all that you're used to
Em D Cadd9                                        G
And the clock on the wall has been stuck at 3 for days, and days
Em D Cadd9                                            G
She thinks that happiness is the mat that sits on her doorway
    D                  Cadd9
But outside it stopped raining

[Chorus]
             G  D  Cadd9
And she says baby
           D                  G  D  Cadd9
It's three a.m. I must be lonely
   D          G  D  Cadd9
Oh, when she says baby
       D                              Em
Well I can't help but be scared of it all sometimes
        Cadd9
And the rain's gonna wash away I believe this

[Outro]
           D                  G  D  Cadd9
Well it's three a.m. I must be lonely
     D               G  D  Cadd9
Well hell, when she says baby
       D                                           Cadd9
Well I can't help but be scared of it all sometimes
