Dm C Bb Dm C F
F C Dm Bb
You have a way of coming easily to me
F C Dm Bb
And when you take, you take the very best of me
Bb C
So I start a fight cause I need to feel something
Bb
And you do what you want cause I’m not what you wanted
F C Dm Bb
Oh what a shame, what a rainy ending given to a perfect day
F C Dm Bb
Just walk away, ain’t no use defending words that you will never say
Dm C
And now that I’m sitting here thinking it thinking it through
Bb C Dm C Bb C F
I’ve never been anywhere cold as you
F C Dm Bb
You put up walls and paint them all a shade of gray
F C Dm Bb
And I stood there loving you and wished them all away
Bb C
And you come away with a great little story
Bb
Of a mess of a dreamer with the nerve to adore you
F C Dm Bb
Oh what a shame, what a rainy ending given to a perfect day

Just walk away, ain’t no use defending words that you will never say
Dm C
And now that I’m sitting here thinking it thinking it through

You never did give a damn thing honey but I cried, cried for you
Dm C Bb Bb F C Dm Bb
And I know you wouldn’t have told nobody if I died, died for you
F C Dm Bb
Oh what a shame, what a rainy ending given to a perfect day
F C
Every smile you fake is so condescending
Dm Bb
Counting all the scars you made
Dm C
And now that I’m sitting here thinking it through
Bb C
I’ve never been anywhere cold as you
