*CAPO 2nd FRET*


*NB: I'm unsure of the A chord used 
in the Bridge, but it sounds close* 

Verse 1: 

D5 
 All I can ever be to you, 
     G#5 
Is a darkness that we knew, 
    G5 
And this regret, 
  F#5   E5      D5  G5  E5 
I got ac-customed to. 


D5 
 Once it was so right, 
     G#5 
When we were at our high, 
G5 
 Waiting for you, 
F#5       E5          D5  G5  E5 
 In the ho-tel at night. 

Verse 2: 
         D5 
I knew I hadn't, 

Met my match, 
          G#5 
But every moment, 

We could snatch. 
  G5 
I don't know why, 
F#5   E5          D5  G5  E5 
 I got so attached. 


          D5 
It's my responsibility, 
              G#5 
And you don't owe, 

Nothing to me, 
       G5 
But to walk away; 
  F#5       E5     F#5 
I have no ca-pacity. 

Refr?o 
  1:

G5           F#5 
 He walks away, 
        B5 
The sun goes down, 
G5 
 He takes the day, 
    F#5       B5 
But I'm grown. 
    G5 
And in this grey, 
        F#5       B5 
In this blue shade, 
   E5 
My tears dry, 
   F#5  G5 
On their own. 

Verse 3: 
D5 
 I don't understand, 
    G#5 
Why do I stress a man, 
     G5 
When there?s so many, 
F#5    E5             D5  G5  E5 
 Better things at hand. 


           D5 
We could a never had it all, 
   G#5 
We had to hit a wall, 
   G5 
So this is, 
   F#5  E5             D5  G5  E5 
In-evita-ble withdrawal. 

Verse 4: 
        D5 
Even if I stop wanting you, 
      G#5 
A Per-spective pushes through, 
     G5        F#5 
I'll be some next man's, 
      E5         D5  G5  E5 
Other woman soon. 


        D5 
I can't play myself again, 
              G#5 
I should just be, 

My own best friend, 
    G5       F#5 
Not fuck myself in the head, 
     E5         F#5 
With stupid men.

In this blue shade, 
   E5

Bridge 1: 
   A5 
So we are history, 

Your shadow covers me, 

The sky above, 

A blaze...

 He walks away, 
        B5 
The sun goes down, 
G5 
 He takes the day,

But I'm grown. 
       A5 
And in your wake, 

In this blue shade, 

My tears dry, 

On their own. 

Verse 5: 
  D5 
I wish I could say, 

No regrets, 
       G#5 
And no emotional debts, 
     G5           F#5 
'Cos as we kiss good-bye, 
    E5       D5  G5  E5 
The sun sets. 


   D5 
So we are history, 
    G#5 
The shadow covers me, 
    G5       F#5 
The sky above a blaze, 
          E5         F#5 
That only lovers see.
