Verse:
C CM7
I know it's been a minute since we last spoke. Been every type of bitter this year
FM7 FM7*
There's something sentimental 'bout the thought of it all, but your tears are all I hear
FM7
I should've loved you better. I wish I could've been there
FM7* FM7
I wish we never met so maybe then I wouldn't see you everywhere
C
But you're so independent, need no one but yourself
CM7 FM7
I don't know how you do it, inhibition for my guilt's too coarse
FM7* FM7
I madе a mistake. Pushed you away, so I grievеd your loss
FM7* FM7
Killed every single memory, killed every thought, killed everything
Chorus:
C
'Cause it might be easier that way
CM7 FM7
If I never had to see your face
FM7* FM7
If I could pretend we never met
FM7
Maybe then I'd feel okay
C
But how can I act like you're a stranger?
FM7
If you were the only one who knew me
FM7
I live in a city full of people, but I am alone
[Bridge *Strum Once*]
C
The comfort of your arms
FM7
Was the only thing I knew
C
Getting out of bed is so easy without you
C FM7
The silence in my car helps me focus when I drive
C
It used to be so hard when I had you by my side
[Instrumental]

[Verse *Strum Once*]
C
Waking up at night, ripping out my hair
FM7
I'm used to having fights, used to hurting everybody that I care for
N.N.
It's unfair, everybody lives their own life that I'm never there for,
FM7
And I lie and I steal time from everyone who ever cried, when I cry, lights on
N.C.
You can put it on my grave when I die at the top of the plaque,
N.c.
"Here lies in this tomb a fucking waste of a man"
C
I got to learn to let go, I got to learn to move on I got a lot I don't know,
FM7
I have to learn to let go. If I don't change who I am, I'ma die 'fore I'm old
FM7
But I can't help but hide myself behind my world of lies I made to cope with who I lost I killed you here
Chorus:
C
'Cause it might be easier that way
FM7
If I never had to see your face
FM7
If I could pretend we never met, maybe then I'd feel okay
C
But how can I act like you're a stranger?
FM7
If you were the only one who knew me
FM7
I live in a city full of people, but I am alone
