G5                           
You're not her
                        C5                D5        
Though I try to see you differently
G5         
I toe the line
                           C5             D5
See I'm searching for what used to be, mine  ooohhhh
G5        
I Saw your eyes
                       C5                 D5     
Then I saw her staring back at me
G5          
And I will try
G5                         C5             
To find another one who's suited to me
   D5   
As well as her



C5           D5        E5
I've moved, far away from you
G5
And I want to
C5       D5              E5
See you here beside me dear
                  G5
but things aren't clear



C5                 D5
And we never even tried
              E5
We never even talked
              G5
We never even thought in the long run
C5               D5
Whenever it was painful
               E5
Whenever I was away
    G5
I'd miss you
          C5
I miss you



G5
She was mine

I was hers
               C5            D5
And all that's in between
G5
if she would cry

I would shelter her
    C5                          D5 
And keep her from the darkness that will be



C5           D5        E5
If I moved, far away from you
G5
And I want to
C5       D5              E5
See you here beside me dear
                  G5
but things aren't clear



C5                 D5
And we never even tried
              E5
We never even talked
              G5
We never even thought in the long run
C5               D5
Whenever it was painful
               E5
Whenever I was away
    G5
I'd miss you
          C5            D5
I miss you



G5                     
Don't trap me in, it's not my time
C5                       
If you cut me deep then I might lie

And if you  
E5         D5              G5            C5          
Scar and leave me, like a sunburn
G5
Don't trap me in, it's not my time
C5
if you cut deep then I might lie
E5
And you
            D5                           C5
Scarred and left me, like a sunburn



C5                 D5
And we never even tried
              E5
We never even talked
              G5
We never even thought in the long run
C5               D5
Whenever it was painful
               E5
Whenever I was away
    G5
I'd miss you
          C5
I miss you

______________________________

^^^ These chords sound best if you play the root note and the one above it at the 
same time, as this is what I think Ed does. 
For example, if you wanted to play a G chord, on the first strum of the chord be 
sure to emphasise these two notes:

e | -------- | 
B | -------- | 
G | -------- | 
D | (b9)------ | 
A | 10------ | 
E | -------- |
