D                   A
You stay just where you are
           D             A
While I'm away from home
      D              A
But I take you in my heart
            D           A
Just like a placebo, oh o
         D          A
It's not enough, no o
        B
To fill me up

(Chorus)
  A              D
I need you by my side
   A                D
To speed the lonely nights
A        D
Yeah, oo oo
A                D            A
Things go faster, faster with you...

(Interlude)
D A D A

(Verse)
    D                    A
And though the thread is long
     D                  A
That holds us together
          D            A
Well it's flexible and strong
       D                 A
But it slows us down, oh o
           D
Time flies, it's true
    A             B
But just when I'm with you




(Chorus)
        A              D
Yeah, I need you by my side
   A                D
To speed the lonely nights
A        D
Yeah, oo oo
A                D            A
Things go faster, faster oh
     D
As I try (as hard as I try)
        A
I can't seem to shake the feeling
            D
That you're all that I require
    A          D
And yeah, so I try (as hard as I try)
   A                            D
To imagine that you're with me, oh oh oh ah

(Interlude)
A                D            A     D

(Ending)
A                D
Things go faster...
A                D            A     D
Things go faster, faster with you
A                D            A     D
Things go faster, faster with you
A                D            A     D
Things go faster, faster with you
A D A (fading)
