Intro
B F# B F#
[Verse]
B
I hope my absence haunts you like a ghost
F#
Eating away at you from time to time
B F#
I know I’m absent from your life and mind but you still haunt mine
[Verse]
G#m F#
There’s a different kind of emptiness you left me with after all of this
E B
And I can’t wrap my head around the fact that you’re not coming back
G#m F#
There’s a chemical imbalance that you left inside my brain
E B E
You’re the reason why the alcohol is still rotting in my veins
[Chorus]
G#m B
I’ll be ok this is something I can get through
E G#m B
But I don’t know if I can say the same about you
[Verse]
B F#
I know a world of stability is all that you could ever see and when everything falls apart
Dear God I know it’ll fall apart
B F#
I hope you buckle at your knees and think of me
[Verse]
G#m
I’ll leave you with this emptiness as your parting gift
F#
These heavy words I know you can’t lift
B
(Between the two of you there’ll be a common rift)
And thats me. The problem you can’t fix
G#m F#
The chemicals have balanced as I’m writing off your name
B E
I hope the thought of us and broken trust stays frozen in his brain
[Chorus]
G#m B
I’ll be ok this is something I can get through
E G#m B
But I don’t know if I can say the same about you
[Bridge]
E
Truth be told we are not the same
F#
G# future sold that was built on blame
G#m
I pray you can’t bear the guilt and shame
B
I’ll stay a thorn in your side that’s worn with pain
E
Day in day out it won’t get better
F#
Even your friends say forever fair-weather
G#m B E
Stay stuck. You’re a stormy sky with an idle mind you deserve each other
[Outro]
F# G#m
And I’ve been picking you apart in my head
E F# G#m
Trying to see between you and me if there was anything worth keeping
I’m empty handed once again
B E B
Constant consent. You lied to him about the time we spent.
E G#m
Relapse. Repent. Your judgement lapse came and went.
B
You said that life was built on compromise
E
G# statement laced with fraying ties on borrowed time you’ll never find
G#m B
So in the end you took what was yours and stole what was mine.
