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