Intro:
C Em F C G

Verse 1:
  C                         Em
I wrote you a letter to make myself feel better
       F                    C             G
To redeem some part of me I thought I had lost
       C                        Em
And we were lost cause long before we fell apart
              F                   C            G
'Cause honey, I was too eager And you were too smart
      C                   Em
Yet I look for you in this empty room
         F                    C            G
You're a phone call away, I'm on the inner state
           C                      Em
And I been drinking cheap wine just to pass the time
    F                    C        G
I'm falling behind and it doesn't matter
        C   Em    F C G
Who you are    to meee

C Em F C G


Verse 2:
    C                       Em
I'm just like my mother, we both love to run
         F                    C        G
Chase impossible things or unreachable dreams
      C                         Em
Lie awake in the night thinking this can't be right
          F               C         G      C     Em  F
But there is no other way to live a life alone
      C  G
I'm alone now

C Em F C G


Verse 3:
     C           Em            F                   C  G
Then suddenly we wait from the stream that we have made
   C              Em               F      C  G
It ?: you all at once and then it slowly fades
    C           Em              F         C  G
I'm racing into nothing now, it all falls away
  C                Em               F        C  G
I know it now from my own sake that I cannot stay
