Verse
G                      D/F#  Em  C     
I'm tired of waking up in tears
G                      D/F#      Em          C
'Cause I can't put to bed these phobias and fears
G                       D/F#    Em      C
I'm new to this grief I can't explain
G                      D/F#    Em              C
But I'm no stranger to the heartache and the pain

Pre Chorus
D        Em            G         C
The fire I began is burning me alive
D           Em              F               D
But I know better than to leave and let it die

Chorus
G           Bm            Em           C
I'm a silhouette asking every now and then
G            Bm          Em         C
"Is it over yet? Will I ever feel again?"
G            Bm           Em             C
I'm a silhouette chasing rainbows on my own
Am                         D        G      D/F#  Em     D/F#
But the more I try to move on, the more I feel alone
C                      Cm               G 
So I watch the summer stars to lead me home

Verse
(Exact Same as Verse 1)
I'm sick of the past I can't erase
A jumble of footprints and hasty steps I can't retrace
The mountain of things I still regret
Is a vile reminder that I would rather just forget (no matter where I go)

Pre Chorus
D        Em            G         C
The fire I began is burning me alive
D           Em              F               D
But I know better than to leave and let it die

Chorus
G           Bm            Em           C
I'm a silhouette asking every now and then
G            Bm          Em         C
"Is it over yet? Will I ever feel again?"
G            Bm           Em             C
I'm a silhouette chasing rainbows on my own
Am                         D        G      D/F#  Em     D/F#
But the more I try to move on, the more I feel alone
C                      Cm               G 
So I watch the summer stars to lead me home

Bridge
             Am     Bm
'Cause I walk alone
     C             D
No matter where I go
             Am     Bm  
'Cause I walk alone
     C             D
No matter where I go
            Am      Bm
'Cause I walk alone
     C             D
No matter where I go

"Is it over yet? Will I ever feel again?"
G            Bm           Em             C
I'm a silhouette chasing rainbows on my own
Am                         D        G      D/F#  Em     D/F#
But the more I try to move on, the more I feel alone
C                      Cm               G 
So I watch the summer stars to lead me home

C                      Cm               G 
I watch the summer stars to lead me home.
