Intro
F F or (Bb)
[VERSE ONE]
F
I've practiced this for hours, gone round and round
C
And now I think that I've got it all down
Dm
And as I say it louder I love how it sounds
A#
Cause I'm not taking the easy way out
Gm
Not wrapping this in ribbons
A#
Shouldn't have to give a reason why...
[CHORUS]
F
It's no surprise I won't be here tomorrow
C
I can't believe that I stayed till today
Dm
Yeah you and I will be a tough act to follow
A# - C
But I know in time we'll find this was no surprise
[VERSE TWO]
F
It came out like a river once I let it out
C
When I thought that I wouldn't know how
Dm
Held onto it forever just pushing it down
A#
Felt so good to let go of it now
Gm
Not wrapping this in ribbons
A#
Shouldn't have to give a reason why
[CHORUS]
F
It's no surprise I won't be here tomorrow
C
I can't believe that I stayed till today
Dm
There's nothing here in this heart left to borrow
A# C
There's nothing here in this soul left to say
F
Don't be surprised when we hate this tomorrow
C
God know we tried to find an easier way
Dm
Yeah you and I will be a tough act to follow
A# C F
But I know in time we'll find this was no surprise
[BRIDGE]
F
Our favorite place we used to go
C
The warm embrace that no one knows
Dm
The loving look that's left your eyes
A# C F
That's why this comes as no, as no surprise
[VERSE THREE]
F
If I could see the future and how this plays out
C
I bet it's better than where we are now
Dm A# C
But after going through this, it's easier to see the reason why
