Verse 1:
G#G#
 I watched the bonds
       C minorCm
we made give way
    Bb majorBb
On your front porch
   G#G#
that may You begged
        Eb MajorEb
me to go but I think
   F minorFm    G#G#
that I should stay
I wanna know how much
  C minorCm
you hate me Before I
Bb majorBb      G#G#
go across the country
before I go across
  Eb MajorEb   F minorFm
the country

Chorus 1:
G#G#
 So act like you never
C minorCm       Eb/GEb/G
cared About a spark
      F minorFm
that wasn't there
But don't forget how
G minorGm
hard you tried to let
G#G#      C minorCm
me down but I wouldn't
   Eb/GEb/G
break free I never
F minorFm        G minorGm
wanted to be the weight
        G#G# C minorCm G minorGm
that you buried


Verse 2:
      G#G#
I'm stuck stateside
with you in my head
      C minorCm
I couldn't even get
 G minorGm     G#G#
away to New England

So next time that

you're on your kitchen
        G#G#
floor Remember me and

what we used to be

And how I couldn't
G#G#    Bb majorBb G#G#
care less anymore

Chorus 2:
G#G#
 So act like you never
C minorCm       Eb/GEb/G
cared About a spark
      F minorFm
that wasn't there
But don't forget how
G minorGm
hard you tried to let
G#G#      C minorCm
me down but I wouldn't
   Eb/GEb/G
break free I never
F minorFm        G minorGm
wanted to be the weight
        G#G#
that you buried


Bridge:
G#G#
 I'll hold on to
Eb MajorEb     F minorFm
everything you've
     G#G#
tried to take
cause I'm gone
     Eb MajorEb
I'm the smile you
F minorFm
couldn't fake
G#G#
 I'll hold on to
Eb MajorEb     F minorFm
everything you've
     G#G#
tried to take
cause I'm gone
     Eb MajorEb
I'm the smile you
F minorFm
couldn't fake


Outro:
G#G#
Well Maybe I'll end up back
    Bb majorBb
in your bed or in a makeshift
      C minorCm      Eb/GEb/G
one in the back of my van
   G#G#
I've learned to not rule
  C minorCm        Eb/GEb/G
out anything when it comes
       F minorFm
to you and me except for
  G minorGm     G#G#
consistency So half of what
          C minorCm
mattered then won't matter
  Eb/GEb/G   F minorFm
anymore And at that time
      G minorGm
I'll be in another state
           G#G#
on another floor In another
           G#(hold)
