Cm (x3101x@1)Verse 1:

CHouse (x32010@1)full of roses
  AbA (xx1114@1)letter on the stairs
CA (x32010@1)tape full of messages
    AbFor (xx1114@1)anyone who cares
  BbCollage (x1333x@1)of broken words
    Aband (xx1114@1)stories full of tears
  BbRemembering (x1333x@1)your life
         AbCause (xx1114@1)we wish that you were here

CNothing (x32010@1)is harder
        AbThan (xx1114@1)to wake up all alone
CRealize (x32010@1)it's not okay
         AbIt's (xx1114@1)the end of all you know
BbTime (x1333x@1)keeps passing by
       AbBut (xx1114@1)it seems I'm frozen still
BbScars (x1333x@1)are left behind
    AbBut (xx1114@1)some too deep to feel

Chorus:

Cm (x3101x@1)                         
And some say this can't be real
Ab (xx1114@1)                                Bb (x1333x@1)And I've lost my power to feel tonight
Bb (x1333x@1)           Eb (x43121@3)         GWe're (320003@1)all just victims of a crime
CmWhen (x3101x@1)alls gone and can't be regained
Ab (xx1114@1)                                  BbWe (x1333x@1)can't seem to shelter the pain inside
Bb (x1333x@1)           Eb (x43121@3)         G (320003@1)     Cm...
We're all just victims of a crime

Verse 2:

CSome (x32010@1)days you'll find me
       AbIn (xx1114@1)the place I like to go
CAsk (x32010@1)questions to myself
          Ab'Bout (xx1114@1)the things I'll never know
BbWhat's (x1333x@1)left to find
         Ab'Cause (xx1114@1)I need a little more
BbI (x1333x@1)need a little time
       AbCan (xx1114@1)we even up the score?
