                        E (022100@1)                 C#m (x13321@4)                       Staring over the edge

                        A (x02220@1)                       I close my eyes and make awish (x02210@1)
                        C#m7 (x4242x@1)                       Turn out the lights and take abreath (x02210@1)
                        D (xx0232@1)                       Pray that when the wick is burned

                        A (x02220@1)                          B (x2444x@1)           E (022100@1)                       You would say that it's all about love

open

                        E (022100@1)                         D (xx0232@1)                       You were there when I needed you

                        A (x02220@1)                       Empty boxes on the floor

                        C#m7 (x4242x@1)                       Things I never asked you for

                        D (xx0232@1)                       I pray that when the wick is burned

                         C#m7 (x4242x@1)             A#m7add5
                        Excuses you fall upon

                        To things you've left undone
