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