Intro:
C majorC E minorEm FF C majorC G+G
Verse 1:
C majorC E minorEm
I wrote you a letter to make myself feel better
FF C majorC G+G
To redeem some part of me I thought I had lost
C majorC E minorEm
And we were lost cause long before we fell apart
FF C majorC G+G
'Cause honey, I was too eager And you were too smart
C majorC E minorEm
Yet I look for you in this empty room
FF C majorC G+G
You're a phone call away, I'm on the inner state
C majorC E minorEm
And I been drinking cheap wine just to pass the time
FF C majorC G+G
I'm falling behind and it doesn't matter
C majorC E minorEm FF C majorC G+G
Who you are to meee
C majorC E minorEm FF C majorC G+G
Verse 2:
C majorC E minorEm
I'm just like my mother, we both love to run
FF C majorC G+G
Chase impossible things or unreachable dreams
C majorC E minorEm
Lie awake in the night thinking this can't be right
FF C majorC G+G C majorC E minorEm FF
But there is no other way to live a life alone
C majorC G+G
I'm alone now
C majorC E minorEm FF C majorC G+G
Verse 3:
C majorC E minorEm FF C majorC G+G
Then suddenly we wait from the stream that we have made
C majorC E minorEm FF C majorC G+G
It ?: you all at once and then it slowly fades
C majorC E minorEm FF C majorC G+G
I'm racing into nothing now, it all falls away
C majorC E minorEm FF C majorC G+G
I know it now from my own sake that I cannot stay
