D5            A5            G5  
I found the pieces in my hand
D5                 A5             G5  
They were always there It just took some time for me to understand
D5            A5                 G5  
You gave me words I just can't say 
D5            A5               G5  
So if nothing else I'll just hold on while you drift away 

PRE-CHORUS 1
E5                             D5     
Cause everything you wanted me to hide 
E5                              D5       G5   A5  
Is everything that makes me feel alive 

CHORUS
D5  
The cities grow 
A5  
The rivers flow 
G5  
Where you are, I never know 
    D5    A5     G5  
But I'm still here 
   D5                    
If you were right and
A5  
I was wrong 
G5  
Why are you the one who's gone 
    D5    A5     G5  
And I'm still here 
               D5  
I'm still here 

VERSE 2 (W/ VERSE RIFF)
D5               A5            G5  
You've seen the ashes in my heart 
D5              A5            G5  
You smile the widest when I cry inside and my insides blow apart 
D5          A5            G5  
I tried to wear another face
D5                 A5             G5  
Just to make you proud, just to make you put me in my place 

PRE-CHORUS 2
E5                         D5  
But everything you wanted from me 
E5                         D5        G5   A5  
Is everything that I could never be 

CHORUS
D5  
The cities grow 
A5  
The rivers flow 
G5  
Where you are, I never know 
    D5    A5     G5  
But I'm still here 
   D5                    
If you were right and
A5  
I was wrong 
G5  
Why are you the one who's gone 
    D5    A5     G5  
And I'm still here 
               D5  
I'm still here 

And I'm still here 

BRIDGE
D5         E5                    B5 
Maybe tonight, it's gonna be alright 
   A5        G5  
I  will get better 
D5        A5                    B5 
Maybe today , it's gonna be okay 
  A5      G5      A5  
I will remember 

VERSE 3 (W/ VERSE RIFF UNTIL FINAL G  )
D5           A5           G5  
I held the pieces of my soul 
D5         A5            G5  
I was shattered and I wanted you to come and make me whole 
D5          A5         G5  
Then I saw you yesterday 
    D5          A5       G5  
but you didn't notice, you just walked away

PRE-CHORUS 3
E5                             D5     
Cause everything you wanted me to hide 
E5                              D5      
Is everything that makes me feel alive 

CHORUS
    D5  
The cities grow 
    A5  
The rivers flow 
G5  
Where you are, I never know 
    D5    A5     G5  
But I'm still here 
   D5                    
If you were right and
A5  
I was wrong 
G5  
Why are you the one who's gone 
    D5    A5     G5  
And I'm still here 

OUTRO CHORUS
     D5                  
The lights go out
     A5  
the bridges burn 
G5  
Once you're gone, you can't return 
    D5    A5     G5  
But I'm still here
D5                      
Remember how
    A5  
You used to say
   G5  
I'd be the one to run away 
    D5    A5     G5  
But I'm still here
               D5
I'm still here

I'm still here
