C5

C5                       F5
House full of roses, a letter on the stairs
C5                           F5
A tape full of messages for anyone who cares
Bb5                           Ab5
Collage of broken words, and stories full of tears,
Bb5                               Ab5
Remembering your life, 'cause we wish that you were here
C5                         F5
Nothing is harder than to wake up all alone,
C5                             F5
Realize it's not OK, it's the end of all you've known
Bb5                            Ab5
Time keeps passing by, but it seems I'm frozen still,
Bb5                         Ab5
Scars are left behind, but some too deep to feel

C5              
And some say this can't be real,
F5                               Bb5
And I've lost my power to feel tonight
               Eb5            G5
We're all just victims of a crime
C5                  
When all's gone and can't be regained,
F5                                  Bb5
We can't seem to shelter the pain inside
               Eb5           G5     C5
We're all just victims of a crime

C5                              F5
Some days you'll find me in a place I like to go,
C5                                  F5
Ask questions to myself 'bout the things I'll never know 
Bb5                            Ab5
What's left to find? 'Cause I need a little more
Bb5                           Ab5
I need a little time, can we even up the score?

C5
Some say this can't be real,
F5                               Bb5
And I've lost my power to feel tonight
               Eb5            G5
We're all just victims of a crime
C5
When all's gone and can't be regained,
F5                                  Bb5
We can't seem to shelter the pain inside
               Eb5            G5
We're all just victims of a crime

(1st solo)

C5               F5                             Eb5
Nothing lasts forever, for all good things it's true
                     G5                        C5
I'd rather trade it all, while somehow saving you
                       F5                          Eb5
It must have been the season that threw us out of line
                G5                              Eb5
Once I stood so tall, now I'm searching for a sign

                      Bb5                     C5
So don't need your salvation with promises unkind
                 F5                           Eb5
And all the speculation, save it for another time
                     Bb5                       C5                           F5
'Cause we all need a reason, a reason just to stay, and some just can't be bothered 
                        C5 
To stick around another day

(2nd solo)

C5
Some say this can't be real,
F5                               Bb5
And I've lost my power to feel tonight
               Eb5           G5
We've all been victims of a crime
C5                          
When all is gone and can't be regained,
F5                                Bb5
We can't seem to shelter the pain inside
               Eb5            G5
We've all been victims of a crime

Eb5           G5
Victims of a crime
Eb5               G5
Living with this crime

C5
I'm missing you X4
