D5               A5
Like the light was all I had
  E5                B5         A5
I struck the book with my last match
D5                    A5
The candle burned so soft and slow
 E5                    B5       A5
I felt the warmth and felt its glow
D5              A5
Salt tasting tears
     E5   
They roll of of my lips
         B5            A5          D5             A5
One for each day I'm inside this house, it's a trap
       E5                      B5              A5            D5
One I can't quite escape so pretend it's the place that I love
              D5      A5  G5
Won't let it pass me by again
              D5      A5   D5
Won't let it pass me by again
D5    
The grass was clipped
A5
The summer sun
E5                      B5    A5
Was beating down on my front yard
D5                  A5
All the boys and girls would laugh
  E5                          B5      A5
I'd watch them through the curtain's crack
D5                        A5
Place all your bets and watch me lose
E5                   B5        A5
The life that I got but never used
D5            A5            E5
Dream every night that one will come true
 B5                D5
But only bad ones ever do
               D5     A5  G5
Won't let it pass me by again
              D5      A5  D5
Won't let it pass me by again

D5                     G5
My heart beats way too fast
     D5               A5        G5
To let regret sit in my lap
              D5      A5  G5
Won't let it pass me by again
              D5      A5  G5
Won't let it pass me by again
D5
(Won't let this pass me by again)
              D5      A5  G5
Won't let it pass me by again

Won't let it pass me by again
