verse 1:
G+G
Can't remember just how it ended
  E minorEm
I'm hazy as to how it began
G+G
Crazy how our lives got so tangled
     E minorEm
Now we're simply silent partners again

Secretly walking a tightrope

Come fall into the arms of the past

'Cause it's still the same me

Who swore those promises would still ring true

       G+G
So, when your heart cries out

In the middle of a sleepless night
