Chords with lyrics

Great song, very fun to play!
It sounds much better if you play the riff rather than the chords when applicable!
(Listen to the song and you'll get what I mean)

Verse 1:
Riff 1 (X4)
Riff 2 (X1)
C majorC      G+G                D MajorD
Couldn't we pretend that I am fine and this ain't my life,
C majorC          G+G     D MajorD
it is not the way it ends for me.
C majorC                       G+G
Couldn't we pretend you are not gone, you are still here,

its not true.

It is not the way it ends for you.
FF   G+G
Oh Whoa

Chorus:
D MajorD               A augmentedA          E minorEm
Sometimes I cut myself on the fine line, between laughter and pain,
     G+G
cause it all feels the same for me.
D MajorD               A augmentedA        C majorC            G+G
Sometimes I wish I could just rewind. I just through all the tears I still want you here with me.

C majorC       G+G     D MajorD
It is just not meant to be
C majorC          G+G          D MajorD

Just the way it was meant to be.
