Intro: C Am F G C Am This city is haunted by the ghost of failure, I am one and you are one F We've spent this whole time on the run from a lie that I told G That you closed your eyes and you chose to believe C So now you ask me for honesty, Just take a second, breathe Am I'm not good enough for you, you were never good enough to me F G No one's ever good enough to be, or have something so naïve C When I broke my hand on your car, when you told me you were leavin' Am And I begged for your forgiveness, my broken fingers bleedin' F G My heavy heart repeatin', afraid, just stay here with me Em Am C Em Then you took your clothes off instead, and you danced around my room C Em Am C Don't worry, you said,'cause the end is coming soon C G F C And we'll meet again someday and we'll toast these stunning ruins G F G C For the bride I'll never be, and the groom C Am F G C Now I picture you like snowflakes, like desperate pouring rain Am Like the beating of the drum in the parade of the insane F You are the whisper in my ear, when I wake and no one's here G There's just the echo of your name C So now you ask me for honesty, I close my eyes, breathe, Am I'm the one who always is so ready to leave F To be a distant memory G To be a ship disappearing in the sea C And I crashed upon your rocks when I heard your voice singing Am And I begged for your love with my busted ears ringing F My hopeful heart repeating G You are more than the promise of the sea Em Am C Em Then you took your clothes off instead, and you danced around my room C Em Am C Don't worry, you said,'cause the end is coming soon C G F C And we'll meet again someday and we'll toast the cursed ruins G F G C For the bride I'll never be, and the groom C
