Intro: 
Dm Bb Dm Bb

Dm                F
 I remember like yesterday
             Dm                       F
 You had a dream in your eyes and a smile on your face
          Bb                  Dm             Bb                  Dm
 And I'm missing those days again, yeah I'm missing those days again
Dm                         F
 And I forgot what really got in the way
            Dm                                F
 Maybe the sun that wouldn't shine should be taking the blame
            Bb             Dm             Bb             Dm
 Cause its raining on me again, yeah its raining on me again
 
Am                        
 A paradox
               Bb 
 The key you dropped, a manifest
               C
 For what you lost, was me, for my sake please...

                  Dm                   F
 Stop slowing me down, stop holding me up
                 Bb              F
 Quit making a scene, enough's enough
           C                         Gm             C
 Let's be honest, your promise, was never meant to last
                   Dm                  F
 So I'm taking you on, I'm calling you out
                  Bb               F
 There's nothing left for us here now
           C                      Gm            C               Dm Bb
 Let's be honest, I promise, I'm never lookin' back for my sake
             Dm Bb
 For my sake

Dm                         F
 Tell me something that's poetic at best
            Dm                              F
 Make me believe there was a time that you weren't like the rest
           Dm             Bb             Dm             Bb
 And I'll never ask you again, and I'll never ask you again
Dm                            F
 For all the moments and the memories
              Dm                       F
 No one could ever say we never had a history
          Dm                 Bb
 But I'm leaving that all behind
               Dm                      Bb
 And there is nothing gonna change my mind

Am                        
 A paradox
               Bb 
 The key you dropped, a manifest
               C
 For what you lost, was me, for my sake please...

                  Dm                   F
 Stop slowing me down, stop holding me up
                 Bb              F
 Quit making a scene, enough's enough
           C                         Gm             C
 Let's be honest, your promise, was never meant to last
                   Dm                  F
 So I'm taking you on, I'm calling you out
                  Bb               F
 There's nothing left for us here now
           C                      Gm            C               Dm Bb
 Let's be honest, I promise, I'm never lookin' back for my sake
             Dm Bb
 For my sake

Am                        
 A paradox, 
               Bb
 The key you dropped, a manifest
               C
 For what you lost, was me
                Gm C
 For my sake, please...
                  Dm
 Stop slowing me down
                 Bb
 Stop holding me up
                  Am
 Stop slowing me down
            Gm C
 Enough's enough

                  Dm                   F
 Stop slowing me down, stop holding me up
                 Bb              F
 Quit making a scene, enough's enough
           C                         Gm             C
 Let's be honest, your promise, was never meant to last
                   Dm                  F
 So I'm taking you on, I'm calling you out
                  Bb               F
 There's nothing left for us here now
           C                      Gm            C               Dm Bb
 Let's be honest, I promise, I'm never lookin' back for my sake
             Dm Bb                    Dm  Bb             Dm
 For my sake,      I'm never lookin' back    for my sake
