Verse 1: Tim
  A
I fell down again
    A/C#
But I can't complain
 D
Another false step
Could drive me insane
A                   A/C#
Only got myself here to blame
     D
So I shake off defeat 
and I start again
A                A/C#
  Oh no I said I want to go 
           D
back But I can't rendition
And I gotta stay on track
A           A/C#
Yeah make a tear like 
       D
that I keep my head up
But I never react

I wrote it down
           A/C#

Sixteen chapters of 
one thing you've blown
    A          A/C#
The best thing yet to help

you through and through
A        A/C#
That she was I feel 
    D
her more than you

I wanna say something
    A/C#
But you're out of town
  D
I don't wanna have 
another short down
     A
Say stand up hey yo
A/C#
   let's make it clear
D
Follow you home no
you were not there
    A
You saw me coming 
    A/C#
jump    you disappear
D
Home alone every 
night seems so clear
A
  You think you see 
       A/C#
me here    all along

Got my crew coming
now One by one

A             A/C#
Cat like thief   she 
          D
stole air from my lungs
A         A/C#
Leave me standing 
        D
on this lonely grave

I dug it out in case 
    D
she turns away
