Verse
G/D Bm F*
I wrote him a letter
G/D B7
I cried in the bath
Em A7
I called my mother
G7*
And lay in the dark
[CHORUS]
Em EmM7
i took down the pictures, and I
Em7 A7
Taught myself to breathe
F* G*
And I hear he’s doing just fine
G/D
Without me
[VERSE]
Bm
I catch the daydreams
F* G/D B7
before hope settles in
Em
I welcome the waves because
A7 G7*
I know I won’t win
[CHORUS]
Em EmM7
Oh I’d never wish this feeling
Em7 A7
On anyone, but see
F* G*
I hear he’s doing just fine
[BRIDGE]
Em EmM7
Perhaps the problem lies in
Em7 A7
The double load I bear
D#
I ripped myself apart and you just
G** G7*
Stood there
[VERSE]
G/D Bm F*
I’m counting the mornings
G/D B7
I wait to feel well
Em
I might not feel quite as bad
A7 G7*
But I can’t really tell
[CHORUS]
Em EmM7
and I know that I’ll be okay
Em7 A7
but it’s pretty far from a breeze
F* G*
And I hear he’s doing just fine
B7 Em
It’s breaking me he isn’t mine
D# G7*
but at least he’s doing just fine
Em EmM7 Em7 A7
Without me
[OUTRO]
F* G*
At least he’s doing just fine
G/D
Without me
