Intro:
B5
Like the perfect ending
B/C#
It won't be too long
B5/D# B/C#
Till everything I've ruined has seen me gone
B5/G#
In time, I pray you'll forgive me
B5/F# B/C#
Now you know the man I am
B5/E B5/F#
Can you forgive me?
Bm Bm/C# Bm/D
I fall
Bm/E Asus9
Like the sands of time
Em
Like some broken rhyme
G A
At feet no longer there
E E/Eb E/C# E/B C Dsus9
If only I could call the rain to melt and wash away the pain you feel
E
I would
E E/Eb E/C# E/B
You gave yourself to me and showed me what the truth could be
C Dsus9 E
For that, I say thank you
C#m F#
This was my life
A Dsus9
It never made much sense to me
B5 B/C# B5/D# B/C# (2x)
B5
With every lie that I lived
B/C#
Part of me would fade
B5/D# B/C#
Into this empty shadow I've become
B5/G#
And now I feel so numb
B5/F# B/C#
I no longer know myself
B5/E B5/F#
But I still know you
Bm Bm/C# Bm/D
I call
Bm/E Asus9
And there's no reply
Em
Like some phantom cry
G A
On ears too far away
E E/Eb E/C# E/B
I close my eyes and watch as my life passes by
C Dsus9 E
The only thing I see is you
E E/Eb E/C# E/B C
For all the times you walked the line for me and standing by my side
Dsus9 E
I say thank you
C#m F#
Here lies my life
A Dsus9
It never felt that real to me
