And our lives are so intertwined in one, we’re just so stuck in this moment It’s clear that we’re coming undone.

Pre-Chorus Chorus -After “as we stand here” (3:41) I can’t hear the guitar anymore because of all the other instruments kicking in, at least until the end of the bridge or whatever. - So hey now, maybe we’re just being stupid, Hey, maybe we’re just being dumb, No, hey, maybe it’s time that we stopped and we realize that, flag in the wind we are one, and how at first it makes so cute and lovely, the battle can can be torn to shreds, with time and patience, and love and affection, we can beat this with needles and thread, because I love you! And you love me, and nothing will make this leave, I said, I love you, and you love me, and nothing will make, make, make, make this leave. So remember me, yeah… remember me, yeah. Remember me… Outro: E------------0---0--0-| B-------------------3-| G---6----6-----2----2-| D---7--7------------0-| A---0---------------0-| D------------4------0-| Don’t Walk Away.
