Intro: D5 A5 B5 G5

  B5                               G5
I dream a lot, I know you say I've got to get away.
     D5                                     A5
"The world is not yours for the taking" is all you ever say.
  B5                                 G5
I know I'm not the best for you, but promise that you'll stay.
            D5
'Cause if I watch you go, you'll see me wasting,
       A5
You'll see me wasted away

         D5                          A5
'Cause today, you walked out of my life
         B5                            G5
'Cause today, your words felt like a knife
                     B5 G5 D5 A5
I'm not living this life.

    B5                               G5
Goodbyes are meant for lonely people standing in the rain
       D5                             A5
And no matter where I go it's always pouring all the same.
      B5                                    G5
These streets are filled with memories both perfect and in pain
          D5                                A5
And all I wanna do is love you but I'm the only one to blame.

         D5                          A5
'Cause today, you walked out of my life
         B5                            G5
'Cause today, your words felt like a knife
I'm not living this life.

            A5
But what do I know, if you're leaving
All you did was stop the bleeding.
          B5
But these scars will stay forever,
These scars will stay forever
          A5
And these words have no meaning
If we cannot find the feeling
        G5
That we held on to together
Try your hardest to remember

D5
Stay with me,
   A5
Or watch me bleed,
  B5                 G5
I need you just to breathe.

         D5                          A5
'Cause today, you walked out of my life
(stay with me, or watch me bleed)
         B5                          G5
'Cause today, your words felt like a knife
(i need you just to breathe.)
                     D5 ( D5 A5 B5 G5 D5 )
I'm not living this life.
