[Intro ]and verse 1 (C#m B, F#m)
Trying too hard to put a smile on my face
When it feels so out of place
I'm being frozen by your flames
Thought you were human but you're just a ghost
A shield of skin and bones
I promise you won't feel a thing
A B F# A
It's not hard to let it go, when there's nothing to hold on to
A B F#
I found hope when I lost you
Chorus (E F#m, C#m, A)
I've forgotten who you are but I
I remember thats a good thing
On the dark side of my heart, oh I
I never saw you shining
Its not hard to come down
When we never left the ground
I've forgotten who you are but I
I remember thats a good thing
verse 2 (E A, E, A)
Through the cracks I see a new day burning
A million miles of sky
That I can claim as mine
C#m B F# A
It's not hard to let it go, when there's nothing to hold on to
C#m B F#
I found hope when I lost you
I've forgotten who you are but I
I remember thats a good thing
On the dark side of my heart, oh I
I never saw you shining
Its not hard to come down
When we never left the ground
I've forgotten who you are but I
I remember thats a good thing
(Same chords as Chorus)
Back to square one but
I remember thats a good thing
When I forget to miss you
I remember thats a good thing
I was already half way home
When I knew that you were gone
Back to square one but
I remember, I remember thats a good thing
I've forgotten who you are but I
I remember thats a good thing
On the dark side of my heart, oh I
I never saw you shining
Its not hard to come down
When we never left the ground
I've forgotten who you are but I
I remember thats a good thing
A B C#m F#
When there's nothing to hold on to
A B F#
I found hope when I lost you
