Intro:
EMaj7Emaj7

 EMaj7Emaj7
All I can ever be to you,

 G#m7G#m7
Is the darkness we once knew,

 C#7C#7                F#m7F#m7
And this deep regret I had to get accustomed to

 EMaj7Emaj7
Once it felt so right

 G#m7G#m7
Anticipation at its height,

 C#7C#7                  F#m7F#m7
Lived in and waiting in hotel room late at night

 EMaj7Emaj7
I knew I hadn't met my match,

 G#m7G#m7
With every moment we could snatch,

 C#7C#7                  F#m7F#m7
I don't know why I let myself get so attached,

 EMaj7Emaj7
It's my responsibility,

 G#m7G#m7
And you don't owe nothing to me,

 C#7C#7                 F#m7F#m7
But to cut myself off I had no capacity

Chorus:
 A augmentedA
He walks away,

 A minorAm
The sun goes down,

 G#m7G#m7             C#sus    C#7C#7
He takes the day but I'm grown,

       F#m9F#m9        A/EA/E
And in your grey, in this cool shade,

     E MajorE          EMaj7Emaj7
My tears dry on their own,


 EMaj7Emaj7
I don't understand,

 G#m7G#m7
Why do I stress a man,

 C#7C#7                     F#m7F#m7
When there's so many better things than him at hand,

 EMaj7Emaj7
We could have never had it all,

 G#m7G#m7
We had to hit a wall,

 C#7C#7          F#m7F#m7
And this is inevitable withdrawal,

 EMaj7Emaj7
Even if I stop wanting you,

 G#m7G#m7
A augmentedA perspective pushes through,

 C#7C#7                F#m7F#m7
I'll be some next man's other woman soon,

 EMaj7Emaj7
I cannot play myself again,

 G#m7G#m7
I should just be my own best friend,

 C#7C#7                 F#m7F#m7
Not fuck myself in the head with stupid men,


Chorus:
 A augmentedA
He walks away,

 A minorAm
The sun goes down,

 G#m7G#m7             C#sus    C#7C#7
He takes the day but I'm grown,

       F#m9F#m9        A/EA/E
And in your grey, in this cool shade,

     E MajorE          EMaj7Emaj7
My tears dry on their own,


 EMaj7Emaj7
Wish I could say no regrets

 G#m7G#m7
And no emotional debt

 C#7C#7                 F#m7F#m7
And as we kiss goodbye the sun behind you sets

 EMaj7Emaj7
So we are history

 G#m7G#m7
Your shadow covers me,

 C#7C#7                F#m7F#m7
The sky above, a blaze that only lovers see


Chorus:
 A augmentedA
He walks away,

 A minorAm
The sun goes down,

 G#m7G#m7             C#sus    C#7C#7
He takes the day but I'm grown,

       F#m9F#m9        A/EA/E
And in your grey, in this cool shade,

     E MajorE          EMaj7Emaj7
My tears dry on their own,


 A augmentedA
He walks away,

 A minorAm
The sun goes down,

 G#m7G#m7             C#sus    C#7C#7
He takes the day but I'm grown,

       F#m9F#m9        A/EA/E
Baby in your grey, in this cool shade,

     E MajorE          EMaj7Emaj7
My tears dry on their own,


         F#m9F#m9     A/EA/E
Yeah, leave your grey to shade

     E MajorE          EMaj7Emaj7
My tears dry on their own


     F#m9F#m9        A/EA/E
In your grey, in this cool shade,

     E MajorE          EMaj7Emaj7
My tears dry on their own,


     F#m9F#m9        A/EA/E
In your grey, in this cool shade,

     E MajorE          EMaj7Emaj7
My tears dry on their own,
