C#m
to see you crying
Amaj7
is the hardest thing
E
but it's worse when I know
B
the tears were caused by me
C#m
so long we turn in circles
Amaj7
but now we both can see
E B
this never was what we wanted it to be
[Pre-Chorus]
Amaj7 E B
I don't wanna waste your time
Amaj7 E B
Lord knows you've been wasting mine
[Chorus]
C#m
you stay praying on your rosary
Amaj7
me and everybody who was close to me
E B
you will get down on your knees beside your bed
C#m
but it don't take standing on your toes to see
Amaj7
there was never really any hope for me
E B
the kid that you once knew is already dead
C#m F#m E B
he's already dead
[Verse]
C#m
you call me selfish
Amaj7
well I must agree
E
tried to plead my case
B
but the words were failing me
C#m
tried to deny it
Amaj7
but you're onto me
E
now I'm afraid of the truth
B
cuz I don't wanna set you free
