This is my first time posting and I worked the chords out on my own so I hope this 
is ok. I played this with the capo on 3rd and I used d-du-d-du-d as the strum pattern.


C                                                   F
Written in these walls are the stories that I can't explain
 C                                                      F
I leave my heart open but it stays right here empty for days
Am                                   F                             C
She told me in the morning she don't feel the same about us in her bones
Am                                   F                           C
It seems to me that when I die these words will be written on my stone

            F    G    C
And I'll be gone gone tonight
                      F       G    C
The ground beneath my feet is open wide
                    F       G      C
The way that I been holdin' on too tight
                G
With nothing in between

    C
The story of my life I take her home
  F                                    Am
I drive all night to keep her warm and time
   F   C
Is frozen (the story of, the story of)
    C      
The story of my life I give her hope
  F                                Am    F
I spend her love until she's broke inside
                C
The story of my life (the story of, the story of)

C                                                  F
Written on these walls are the colors that I can't change
C                                                  F
Leave my heart open but it stays right here in its cage

  Am       
I know that in the morning
     F                             C
I'll see us in the light upon your ear
  Am                     F                C
Although I am broken, my heart is untamed still

            F    G    C
And I'll be gone gone tonight
                    F       G       C
The fire beneath my feet is burning bright
                    F       G     C
The way that I been holdin' on so tight
                G
With nothing in between

    C
The story of my life I take her home
  F                                    Am
I drive all night to keep her warm and time
   F   C
Is frozen (the story of, the story of)
    C
The story of my life I give her hope
  F                                 Am  F
I spend her love until she's broke inside
                C
The story of my life (the story of, the story of)

           Am               F            G
And I been waiting for this time to come around
         Am            F                       G
But baby running after you is like chasing the clouds

    C
The story of my life I take her home
  F                                    Am
I drive all night to keep her warm and time
   F   C
Is frozen

    C
The story of my life I give her hope (give her hope)
  F                                Am    F
I spend her love until she's broke inside (until she's broke inside)
                C 
The story of my life (the story of, the story of)
                C  F
The story of my life
                C  F
The story of my life (the story of, the story of)
                   C
The story of my life
