E MajorE A augmentedA
If I ran so far
F#F# BB
That my life can't follow me
E MajorE A augmentedA
Would it keep the world
F#F# BB
>From up and swallowing me
A augmentedA BB E MajorE A augmentedA
There's so much to weigh me down that I can't hardly breathe
C# minorC#m F#F#
And I don't want to think about it
C# minorC#m F#F#
But I don't want this pain to last
E MajorE BB C# minorC#m
And I I'm fading fast
E MajorE A augmentedA
If I didn't look back
F#F# BB
And I changed my name
E MajorE A augmentedA F#F# BB
Would I find my new life exactly the same
A augmentedA BB E MajorE A augmentedA
I'm looking at an empty future that I already blame
C# minorC#m F#F#
And I don't want to think about it
C# minorC#m F#F#
But I don't want this pain to last
E MajorE BB C# minorC#m
And I I'm fading fast
A augmentedA
I've put it all behind me
A augmentedA
Just to have it one day find me
A augmentedA BB
And now I'm just this far from gone
Solo
A augmentedA BB E MajorE A augmentedA
And so I'm leaving here on every cent that I could borrow
A augmentedA F#F# BB
Lord only knows just where I'll be tomorrow
C# minorC#m F#F#
And I don't want to think about it
C# minorC#m F#F#
But I don't want this pain to last
E MajorE BB
And I I'm fading
C# minorC#m F#F#
I don't want to think about it
C# minorC#m F#F#
But I don't want this pain to last
E MajorE BB C# minorC#m F#F#
And I I'm fading fast
E MajorE BB C# minorC#m F#F# C# minorC#m F#F# A augmentedA E MajorE
Yea I I'm fading fast
