Intro
G#m
Verse 1:
B F#
Sat up for hours
G#m
Thought of a lover
F#
I’ll probably never
Get the chance
B
to hold again
F#
All of my days
spend waiting for
G#m F#
Nights with her
F--
again again
B
And I’m sharing a
F# G#m
drink with a memory
F#
And a laugh with
B
an empty seat
F#
Do you still look the same?
G#m
Will you still
F#
look at me the same?
E
Cause I know that I don’t
F#
I’ve gotten so old
G#m F#
in these last few years
E F#
And I’d rather be fighting with you
G#m F#
Than sleeping here, next to her
Chorus:
B
Don’t let me fall, I’ll break
G#m
What a mess I’d make
E
Pathetic --pieces-- on your floor
F#
Will cut your feet forever more
B G#m
You’re porcelain, such fragile skin
E
Just let me hold you I’ll be gentle
F#
I won’t drop you
G#m
This time I’ll be careful
Verse 2:
B F#
Forget for just one second
G#m F#
That this is not alright
B F#
Let’s drink to feeling nothing
G#m F#
At least just for tonight
E
Stay for one more
F#
Pass out on the floor
G#m
like we used to do
F#
It got so hot in your room
(Repeat Chorus)
Bridge:
E F# G#m
And I can’t let it go
E F#
This phantom pain
G#m
I’m feeling
E
And the hurt won’t
F# G#m
leave me alone
E
And I’m tired of
F# C(hold)
sleeping with ghosts
Interlude: C--G/B--Am--G--
Verse 3:
B
Fell asleep
with your ghost
F#/A#
Woke up with a
headache
G#m
From the cure that’s
only temporary
F#
And in the morning
always fails me
(Repeat chorus)
