EMPTY CUPS
As recorded by Amanda Shires
(From the 2022 Album TAKE IT LIKE A MAN)

[Intro]
C Em F Am G

[Verse 1]
C
You were looking away towards the trees
Dm
There was a time you used to listen closer to me
Em
As close as the air is to the sea
C
So close I could feel you breathe

[Verse 2]
C
How we got here? I'd say quietly
Dm
As quietly as those same trees grew to shade
Em
One day at a time and further away
Am
Further and further, further away

[Chorus]
G C F
Now my hands are two empty cups
Am
Maybe I was asking for a little too much
G G7
To keep the newness from wearing off
F
For every start, thеre's gonna be a stop

[Verse 3]
C
You're lеaving now through the hole of an argument
Dm
I guess for a while you've been looking for the exit
Em
You slammed the door so hard, I still hear rattling spoons
C
The sound of silence rings in every room

[Verse 4]
C
The last talk left me a makeup rainbow of tears
Dm
Turned everything blurry, I can't see a thing from here
Em
I tried so hard to make myself clear
