Verse
E A E
I used to smile at every star and thank the sky
E A E
Now I look up to all the duds and wonder why
F#7
I feel like all of them are gone
Am
Can't feel a single one
[Verse 2]
E A E
And so I stretch my eyes across the land and sea
E A E
I know I loved the world, but now it's flat to me
F#7
Oh, tell me, did someone snatch the light?
Am
Why doesn't it look right?
[Chorus]
E Bm A
I made a promise, but I break it every day
E Bm A
It's not my fault, for I was promised just the same
C D
Once I saw fire, and all I know is something happened
A E
Did I let it go?
Am E
[Verse 3]
A
Now every morning since the line between my lives
E A
I greet the sun and ask, "Have I already died?
F#7
If not, then why am I alone?
Am
And when can I come home?"
[Bridge]
Oh, and I am lying when I say
F#
It's time to let her float away
F
No, I'm still clawing for the strings
Am
Oh, I'd do any fucking thing
G
I know I have to close the door
F#
Too much to miss it anymore
I think that this really is it
F
I'll have to take what I can get
I'll have to take what I can get
What I can get
[Chorus]
E Bm A
I made a promise, but I break it every day
E Bm A
It's not my fault, for I was promised just the same
C D
Once I saw fire, and all I know is something happened
A E
Did I let it go?
E Bm A
I made a promise, but I break it every day
E Bm A
It's not my fault, for I was promised just the same
C D
Once I saw fire, and all I know is something happened
Did I let it go?
C D
Once I saw fire, and all I know is something happened
Did I let it go?
