Intro:
E#mE#m C#C# BB A#A#
Verse 1:
E#mE#m C#C#
When days seem meaningless, don't go and lie
BB A#A#
As long as I'm right here, there's no need to try
E#mE#m C#C#
Head up high, or you'll never win
BB A#A#
There's only dead ends waiting, when you give in
Verse 2:
E#mE#m C#C#
Yet they go on asking, when all of the time
BB A#A#
It's always lying in the day, 'til the dead of the night
E#mE#m C#C#
All of your flaws with every mistake
BB
And all the reasons that may cause you to break
C#C#
Show me what it takes
Chorus:
BB C#C#
Was everything really what you wanted though?
A#A# E#mE#m C#C#
Does anything get you feeling all alone?
BB A#A#
If so, don't be dying on me
E#mE#m
Or I'll be holding tighter
BB C#C#
'Cause I'll be here, giving all my love to you
A#A# E#mE#m C#C# BB
Even if there wasn't a lot for me to do
A#A# C#C# E#mE#m
I'll keep on trying harder to walk you through
Verse 3:
E#mE#m C#C#
When life gives agony, don't ever cry
BB A#A#
As long as I'm right here, you won't need to try
E#mE#m C#C#
The aisle's where I'm always waiting for you
BB A#A#
Out near the front, so no one's stealing the view
Verse 4:
E#mE#m C#C#
But there's always conflict among all the peace
BB A#A#
It's how the world goes around in a cycle of greed
E#mE#m C#C#
All of that love, with all of the hate
BB
And all the no-good lies that they all create
C#C#
You face it all the same
Chorus:
BB C#C#
But tragedy always seemed to rule the right
A#A# E#mE#m C#C#
Reality always had to roll the die
BB A#A# E#mE#m C#C#
And I, I didn't want to see you remain abandoned forever
BB C#C#
So really then, were we ever wrong or right?
A#A# E#mE#m C#C# BB
An ending, never would've come to light, oh, why
A#A# E#mE#m
Were we never meant to see, eye to eye?
Interlude:
E#mE#m C#C# BB C#C#
E#mE#m C#C# BB C#C#
Bridge:
BB C#C#
The light dies down, yet you don't really mind
D#mD#m
It feels like everything goes slower when you move into sight
BB C#C#
The air gets cold, and you signal the end
D#mD#m
But I could tell that you were aching with all of your stances
E#mE#m C#C# BB
I'll be fine, but my heart won't agree
E#mE#m C#C# BB
It keeps accelelerating every time you try looking back at me
E#mE#m C#C#
"But I will find"
BB C#C#
"I wanna find that hand of yours"
BB A#A#
Until the day that I hold it close to mine
Chorus:
BB C#C#
Was everything really what you wanted though?
A#mA#m E#mE#m C#C#
Does anything get you feeling all alone?
BB A#A# E#mE#m C#C#
If so, don't be dying on me or nothing else would matter
BB C#C#
But even then, I would love you all the same
A#A# E#mE#m C#C# BB
Even if everybody walks away, I won't
A#A# BB
Now that we're here, I guess you'll know
C#C#
I was always on my own
A#A# E#mE#m C#C# BB
I couldn't ever think of letting go, oh no
C#C# E#mE#m A#mA#m BB
It didn't matter if I was left here to die
A#A# E#mE#m A#mA#m BB A#A#
You can cut me deeper, but I'll be fine
E#mE#m A#mA#m BB A#A#
'Cause in the end I wouldn't mind
