Verse 1:
  C
I called you today
 Am
Wanting a change
  G
I never meant to hurt anyone
      G
Never meant for you to pull out your guns
    C
But feelings won't stay
        Am
In this meager parade
       G
You're beating to a different drum
        G                               Am
In this lack of all the luster we've become

Pre-Chorus:
          D
Save your breath
                    Am
You know we've both
          D
Tried our best

But it's leaving


Chorus:
     G
This might as well be done
    F
I'm falling with the sun
               C                            G
When the hours getting sour won't save with time
        G
And I'm waving off the one
    F
Who wouldn't let me run
                 C                       Am       D
Though we tried, it's a lie I can't keep dragging on
                         C
I'm untying this sinking stone

Repeat intro phrase::
C  D  Em  G

Verse 2:
      C
Don't sit on the fence
Am
Living past tense
G
Holding on to wishes and words
G
Folding out a picture we blur
      C
Cause here in the end
    Am
I'm losing a friend
G
Fighting back a tear when it burns
  G                            Am
Dividing up the pieces that we were


Pre-Chorus:
          D
Save your breath
                    Am
You know we've both
          D
Tried our best

But it's leaving


Chorus:
     G
This might as well be done
    F
I'm falling with the sun
               C                            G
When the hours getting sour won't save with time
    G
I'm waving off the one
    F
Who wouldn't let me run
                 C                       Am       D
Though we tried, it's a lie I can't keep dragging on
                         C
I'm untying this sinking stone

Am  G  D

Bridge:
        C
I can't say you're all alone
      Am
I'm accepting what I own
            G                  D
Here lies a blanket and not a bandage

      C
I'm unable to restrain
         Am
When the wake that we became
   D
Is drawing me under


Chorus:
     G
This might as well be done
    F
I'm falling with the sun
               C                            G
When the hours getting sour won't save with time
    G
I'm waving off the one
    F
Who wouldn't let me run
                 C                       Am       D
Though we tried, it's a lie I can't keep dragging on

     G
This might as well be done
    F
I'm falling with the sun
               C                            G
When the hours getting sour won't save with time
    G
I'm waving off the one
    F
Who wouldn't let me run
                 C                       Am       D
Though we tried, it's a lie I can't keep dragging on
                         C
I'm untying this sinking stone
