Verse 1:
Written in these walls are the stories that I can't explain
I leave my heart open but it stays right here empty for days
She told me in the morning she don't feel the same about us in her bones
It seems to me that when I die these words will be written on my stone

Pre-Chorus:
And I'll be gone gone tonight
The ground beneath my feet is open wide
The way that I been holdin' on too tight
With nothing in between

For the Chorus strum the chords:

   C
The story of my life I take her home
  F                                    Am
I drive all night to keep her warm and time
  F     C
Is frozen (the story of, the story of)
    C
The story of my life I give her hope
  F                                  Am
I spend her love until she's broke inside
 F     C
The story of my life (the story of, the story of


Verse 2:

Written on these walls are the colors that I can't change
Leave my heart open but it stays right here in its cage
I know that in the morning now, I'll see us in the light upon a hill
Although I am broken my heart is untamed still


Bridge:

           F*                             G*
And I been waiting for this time to come around
         F*                                     G*
But baby running after you is like chasing the clouds


*Strum once and let ring
