Intro
C G Am Dm x2
[Verse 1]
C
It’s a bitter cold today
G
I stood out here for hours
Am
I was looking for an answer
Dm
Took a chance, took a chance, took a swing and I missed
C
Late night and your heart hurts
G
I gotta get myself unstuck
Am Dm
Now it’s so much tougher than I thought it was (than I thought it was)
[Chorus]
C G
I stand at the edge of the world
Am
Just staring out at the water
Dm
I was a symbol of hope
C
But I’ve been pushed a bit farther
G Am
And though I feel undone, I got more to offer
Dm
This was a big misstep
C (into the next verse)
Now you've become a stranger
[Verse 2]
I’m drawing dead today
G
Feeling like I’m hollow
Am
There was no more to explain
Dm C
Where you stood right there, right in front of me and I could see it in your face
G Am Dm
It nеver stops, it’s lasting so much longer than I thought it would (than I thought it would)
C
I remеmber what it's like
G
Your golden boy in flowers
Am Dm
Every song for you and I when we felt easy, we felt alright
C G Am Dm
I looked at you one last time and I knew that never again would I sing your name (oh yeah)
[Chorus]
C G Am
You took something so beautiful and covered it with sorrow
Dm
I need to get my head straight
C
I need to stand a bit taller
G Am
Although I feel undone, I got so much to offer
Dm
This was a big misstep
C
Now you are just a stranger
G Am Dm C G Am Dm
[Bridge]
C G Am
But at the end of the day, there is beauty in tragedy
Dm
I hope you find what you need
C
I hope it’s everlasting
G
I hope you learn to love yourself
Am
I hope you learn
Dm
To love yourself
[Outro]
