Key: C

🎸 Intro: 

C Am Gsus4 Fsus2

🎸 Verse 1:
C                   Am
I know it's not my fault
Gsus4                      Fsus2
But I can't say that I'm blameless
C                       Am
Carry the pain 'til it stops
Gsus4                Fsus2
Undress it until it's nameless

🎸 Interlude: 
C Am Gsus4 Fsus2

🎸 Verse 2:
C                       Am
Someday, the world will stop
Gsus4                     Fsus2
And it will feel just like this did
C                 Am
I know it's not my fault
Gsus4                        Fsus2
But sometimes it feels like I did this

🎸 Chorus: 
Dm7  Cmaj7/E Fsus2
Oh-oh, oh-oh
        Dm7     Cadd2/E         Fsus2
Someday I'll be able to let you go
Dm7   Cmaj7/E Fsus2
Oh-oh, oh-oh
     Dm7        Cadd2/E        Fsus2
Someday I'll be kinder to myself

🎸 Verse 3:
C                   Am
One second into the next
Gsus4                Fsus2
I never know where my feet are
C                         Am
We're spinning out of a vortex
Gsus4                Fsus2
I don't remember who we are

🎸 Chorus: 
Dm7  Cmaj7/E Fsus2
Oh-oh, oh-oh
        Dm7     Cadd2/E         Fsus2
Someday I'll be able to let you go
Dm7   Cadd2/E Fsus2
Oh-oh, oh-oh
C/E          Dm7         Cadd2/E           Fsus2
And it's harder whеn you know all that we know

🎸 Bridge: 
           Dm7                     Cmaj7/E
And you're screaming at mе and I'm watching it fall
        Fsus2                                   C/E
And I'm slamming the door and you make yourself tall
         Dm7                  Cadd2/E
But it's always an act and it never lasts long
        Fsus2                           C/E Gsus4
'Cause I always come back when I need a new song
C       Dm7                    Cadd2/E
And I'm tired of this and the way that it feels
        Fsus2                              C/E
I'm not there anymore, this has never been real
           Dm7                Cadd2/E
We're just awful together and awful apart
        Fsus2                   Gsus4 F9
I don't know what to do anymore

🎸 Chorus: 
Dm7  Cmaj7/E Fsus2
Oh-oh, oh-oh
C/E    Dm7     Cadd2/E         Fsus2
Someday I'll be able to let you go
Dm7   Cadd2/E Fsus2
Oh-oh, oh-oh
C/E     Dm7         Cadd2/E             Fsus2
Someday you'll come back, and I'll say no
