Intro
Am Dm C G
[Verse]
Am
to see you crying
Fmaj7
is the hardest thing
C
but it's worse when I know
G
the tears were caused by me
Am
so long we turn in circles
Fmaj7
but now we both can see
C G
this never was what we wanted it to be
[Pre-Chorus]
Fmaj7 C G
I don't wanna waste your time
Fmaj7 C G
Lord knows you've been wasting mine
[Chorus]
Am
you stay praying on your rosary
Fmaj7
me and everybody who was close to me
C G
you will get down on your knees beside your bed
Am
but it don't take standing on your toes to see
Fmaj7
there was never really any hope for me
C G
the kid that you once knew is already dead
Am Dm C G
he's already dead
[Verse]
Am
you call me selfish
Fmaj7
well I must agree
C
tried to plead my case
G
but the words were failing me
Am
tried to deny it
Fmaj7
but you're onto me
C
now I'm afraid of the truth
G
cuz I don't wanna set you free
[Pre-Chorus]
Fmaj7 C G
I don't wanna waste your time
Fmaj7 C G
Lord knows you've been wasting mine
[Chorus]
Am
you stay praying on your rosary
Fmaj7
me and everybody who was close to me
C G
you will get down on your knees beside your bed
Am
but it don't take standing on your toes to see
Fmaj7
there was never really any hope for me
C G
the kid that you once knew is already dead
Am Dm C G
he's already dead
[Chorus]
(half time)
Am
you stay praying on your rosary
Fmaj7
me and everybody who was close to me
C G
you will get down on your knees beside your bed
Am
but it don't take standing on your toes to see
Fmaj7
there was never really any hope for me
C G
the kid that you once knew is already dead
Am Dm C G
he's already dead
[Solo]
[Chorus]
Am
you stay praying on your rosary
Fmaj7
me and everybody who was close to me
C G
you will get down on your knees beside your bed

the kid that you once knew is already dead
