Maybe you just got lost On the way back home.
Cmaj7Cmaj7
On the way back home to me.
FF         A#mA#m    DmDm        Cmaj7Cmaj7
Maybe we're just pretending, And maybe I don't mind
FF         A#mA#m  DmDm
So, now that it's ending, I don't wanna know
Cmaj7Cmaj7           Cmaj7Cmaj7
Was it all a waste of time?

FF                A#mA#m
It's the end of the world, It's the last taste of wine
DmDm              C majorC
When you were, when you were, When you were mine,

So, I wrote one more story, I just don't know how it ends

About all the boys you're seeing, The ones that you
Cmaj7Cmaj7
That you call your friends.

This nightmare keeps repeating, We'll never get to the end
    FF      A augmentedA    DmDm        Cmaj7Cmaj7
Of this fire we're feeding, The hottest love has the coldest end.
