Capo- 3rd fret

Intro- Em Bm C G

 Em        Bm       C                  G
 I want to go back, forget that it's over
 Em         Bm     C                   G
 Painted in black, when you left me alone
 Em      Bm            C
 I never knew, she was sleeping next door
                    G         Em         Bm            C
 With the kid I grew up with, and I can't go back to her
 G        D    
 Anymore, no more

 Em             C            G                       D
 You tell me you were happier within, you want me to stay
 Em                  C                G               D                                                           
 And you tell me that you needed time but you push me away
 Em               C               G                    D
 But then you try to take me back, my heavy heart just breaks
                              Em C G D
 No, I can't lift the weight

 Em        Bm         C                  G
 Put you in the past, try to forget you cause it's over
 Em        Bm           C                 G
 And every time you ask I'll pretend I'm okay
 Em            Bm
 You're inside my head,
 C
 In the middle of the night when I don't feel right
 G                       Em          Bm            C         G      D
 I dream I can hold you, and I can't go back to you anymore, yeah, yeah

 Em             C            G                       D
 You tell me you were happier within, you want me to stay
 Em                  C                G               D                                                           
 And you tell me that you needed time but you push me away
 Em               C               G                    D
 But then you try to take me back, my heavy heart just breaks
                      Em    C      G                D
 But, I can't lift the weight, and I can't lift the weight

 Em                              D
 And I can't lift the weigh, no I can't life the weight
 G                                  C
 Yeah, you stand on my shoulders and my heart just breaks
 Em                              D             
 And I can't lift the weigh, no I can't life the weight
 G                                   C
 Yeah, you stand on my shoulders and my heart just breaks
 Em                              D
 And I can't lift the weigh, no I can't life the weight
      G                             C
 Yeah, you lower your standards and I raise the stakes
       Em                         D                   G      C
 And I can't lift the weigh, no I can't life the weight

 Em             C            G                       D
 You tell me you were happier within, you want me to stay
 Em                  C                G               D                                                           
 And you tell me that you needed time but you push me away
 Em               C               G                    D
 But then you try to take me back, my heavy heart just breaks
                      Em    C      G                D
 But, I can't lift the weight, and I can't lift the weight

 
 Em             C            G                       D
 You tell me you were happier within, you want me to stay
 Em                  C                G               D                                                           
 And you tell me that you needed time but you push me away
 Em               C               G                    D
 But then you try to take me back, my heavy heart just breaks
     Em               C                         D
 Say someday you will change, but I don't wanna wait
