Verse
G#m B
The space between where our ends meet
E
has gone too much for me to block it out
G#m B
I'll miss the sound of your heartbeat
E
it's such a warming and familiar sound
G#m F# B
I hope you're finding the power
E
to help you make it through the darker days
G#m B
For now I'll wait by the hour
E F#
if you wanna take somebody's breath away
B F#
I hope you're lonely hope you're lost 'cause I've been
G#m
and I need to think you're better off without me
E
I know we kept losing touch, got lost in the rush
I pray you don't hurt too much
B F#
Now does it kill you when you think about me?
G#m
Are you as close to giving up as I feel?
E
I know we kept losing touch, got lost in the rush
Em B
but I pray you don't hurt too much
G#m B
I don't come close to an angel
E
but you ain't never been no carrousel (?)
G#m B
When we both came together
E
well that's the kind of feeling praying me (?)
G#m F# B
We could've been here forever
E
making manners 'til our number's out (?)
G#m B
You brought the smoke and the fire
E F#
we'd start a war if we were close enough
B F#
I hope you're lonely hope you're lost 'cause I've been
G#m
and I need to think you're better off without me
E
I know we kept losing touch, got lost in the rush
I pray you don't hurt too much

Now does it kill you when you think about me?

Are you as close to giving up as I feel?

I know we kept losing touch, got lost in the rush

Oh we had it all, but we let it fall

lost in the rush, but I pray you don't hurt too much
