Verse 1:

E (022100@1)                                 AWell (x02220@1)I woke up to the sound of silence and guns
                              E (022100@1)        AWere (x02220@1)cutting like knives in a fist fight
      E (022100@1)        
And I found you with a bottle of wine
     A (x02220@1)                                              E (022100@1)        AYour (x02220@1)head in the curtains and heart like the 4th of July

EYou (022100@1)swore and said we are not
           F#mWe (244222@1)are not shining stars
       G#mThis (133111@4)I know
              Acause (x02220@1)I never said we are

EThough (022100@1)I've never been through hell like that
     A (x02220@1)                                              E (022100@1)        A (x02220@1) 
I've closed enough windows to know you can never look back

Chorus:

E (022100@1)                       A (x02220@1)           BIf (x2444x@1)you're lost and alone, or you're sinkin like a stone
      E (022100@1)                  A (x02220@1)        BCarry (x2444x@1)on
         E (022100@1)                       A (x02220@1)           BMay (x2444x@1)your past be the sound of your feet upon the ground
      E (022100@1)                  A (x02220@1)        BCarry (x2444x@1)on

Verse 2:

E (022100@1)                                         ASo (x02220@1)I met up with some friends at the edge of the night
              E (022100@1)        AAt (x02220@1)a bar off 75
       E (022100@1)                                          AAnd (x02220@1)we talked and talked about how our parents will die
             E (022100@1)                  AAll (x02220@1)our neighbors and wives

Pre-chorus:

EBut (022100@1)I'd like to think
      F#mI (244222@1)can cheat it all
        G#m (133111@4)                      ATo (x02220@1)make up for the times I've been cheated on
         EAnd (022100@1)it's nice to know
           F#mWhen (244222@1)I was left for dead
      G#mI (133111@4)was found and I know not these streets
     A (x02220@1)              BI (x2444x@1)am not the ghost you want to be
