Verse: 1
G Em
I know this is coming to an end
Bm A
Aware of all the pain that will ensue
G Em
And when it leaves a hole inside my chest
Bm A
Im not sure how I'll cover up the wound
Pre-Chorus:
G Em Bm
My body's filled with my regret
A
And sorrow
G Em Bm A
Gloomy symphonies fill my head, mhh
[Refrão]
G Em
Tonight I think I'll write the saddest song
Bm A
To cleanse me of your memory and mend me when you're gone
G Em
I can feel we're barely holding on
Bm A
So tonight I think I'll write the saddest song
G Em
And maybe when I play it in my room
Bm A
I won't feel so empty when I'm thinking about you
G Em
I can feel we're barely holding on
Bm A
So tonight I think I'll write the saddest song
G Em Bm A
Mhh-mh, mhh, Mhh-mh

Maybe you'll be on your way to work
Bm A
And hear it when you're driving down the street

And maybe then you'll wanna make things work
Bm A
And tell me that you never wanna leave
Pre-Chorus:
G Em Bm
My body's filled with my regret
A
And sorrow
G Em Bm A
Gloomy symphonies fill my head, mhh
