[Intro]
G Cadd9 G
[Verse 1]
Cadd9 G Cadd9
I thought I was a writer
G
That I could write the script
C
And every word I made you say
C
Sounded stale out of your lips
Em Dsus4 G Cadd9 G
But I still wrote and you still read along
Cadd9 G Cadd9 G
I didn't want to walk away from all that we had built
C
So I sat silently in my guilt
Em Dsus4 G Cadd9 G D G
While you danced, I stood still
[Chorus]
C G Dsus4 G
Holding on, pieces of the past
C G Dsus4 G
And how, my God, did I think it could last?
C G Gmaj7 Em*
When I've seen the work my hands have done
C Dsus4 G Cadd9 G Cadd9 G
And I found I was the wrong one
[Verse 2]
Cadd9 G Cadd9 G
My youth blinded me to all that you had felt
C
Though what was never considered
C
Were the cards that I'd been dealt
Em Dsus4 G Cadd9 G
But you still played and I was torn
Cadd9 G
Well, I saw where the line was
Cadd9 G
But I clearly walked across
C
And the look on your face made my stomach turn and toss
Em Dsus4 G Cadd9 G D G
Cause I knew that you were lost
[Chorus]
C G Dsus4 G
Holding on, pieces of the past
C G Dsus4 G
And how, my God, did I think it could last?
C G Gmaj7 Em
When I've seen the work my hands have done
C Dsus4 G Cadd9 G
And I found I was the wrong one
[Solo]
C G D G 2x
C G Gmaj7 Em
C Dsus4 G Cadd9 G
[Verse 3]
Cadd9 G*
In the summer I'll be married
G*
And your family will have grown
C*
And the words of forgiveness that we never spoke
Em Dsus4 G
Will be known, will be known
[Outro]
Cadd9 G 3x
