Guitar chords with lyrics

I always mute the E string for the G chords except for the last chord in the
chorus.  I also don't have the ending finished but I figure this should give you a good start.

***Verse1***
C
The walls between
G
You and I
Dm                               Am                  G
Always pushing us apart nothing left but scars fight after fight

C
The space between
G
Our calm and rage
Dm                               Am               G
started growing shorter , disappearing slowly day after day
***Pre-Chorus***
For this section use power chords.
    D    E    F

D                           E              F
I was sitting there waiting in my room for you
                        D
You were waiting for me too

And it makes me wonder

***Chorus***
C
The older I get
G
Will I get over it
Dm
It's been way too long for the times we missed
Am                    G                        C
I didn't know then it would hurt like this but I think

C
The older I get
G
Maybe I'll get over it
Dm
It's been way too long for the times we missed
Am                       G
I can't believe it still hurts like this

***Verse2***(same chord as Verse1)
C
The time between
G
Those cutting words
Dm                               Am                  G
Built up our defenses never made no sense it just made me hurt
C
Do you believe
G
That time heals all wounds
Dm                               Am                  G
It started getting better but it's easy not to fight when I'm not with you

Pre-Chorus+Chorus(1x)

***Bridge***
Am
What was I waiting for
C                                G
I should've taken less and given you more

I should've weathered the storm
                 Am
I need to say so bad
                        C
What were you waiting for
                         G            C
This could have been the best we ever had

Chorus(1x)

Good luck and let me know what I screwed up!
