C#m - B - G#m - A
C#m - G#m7 - E
C#m B G#m A
You ever catch yourself just thinking of a way to get out?
C#m G#m7 A B
It’s like a reflex motion.
C#m B G#m A
The words slip in and leave a taste that you let linger for days,
C#m G#m7 A
inside your heart.
E C#m
We fell asleep, just like before, there under trees
C#m
I can’t do this anymore
E C#m
Make this all something that’s behind us
A E B
For me, for you, this is not the end but I’m scared
C#m B G#m A
Color your words in a soft subtle sequence
C#m B G#m A
But you force this on us like we shouldn’t care
C#m B G#m A
The fields that they will find us in are marked and now
C#m B A
The end, the end is here
E
We fell asleep, just like before,
C#m
You said I can’t do this anymore
CHORUS (x2)
E
You better run, you best not stay
C#m A
They catch you here this all goes away
A E B
This all goes away
C#m B G#m A
Just give me a chance to change your mind
C#m B G#m A
Speak with the others you will see
C#m B G#m A
The place that you now hope to find, your peace
C#m B A
will cut pieces right out from me
E F#m
You could make this all go away
C#m
Years Swept by us like Seas
G#m B E
And we slept by ourselves to see
E
We hid hope in our sleeves
F#m
And all the world knew we believed
C#m G#m
This life took me by the hand
G#m B E
God knows where you’ll find yourself (in the end)
E
You better run, you best not stay
C#m A
They catch you here this all goes away
A E B
This all goes away. (x2)
C#m B
The less you say the more I can’t shake
B A C#m
The reason you would leave is the reason you could stay
B A
Oh, The less you say the more I can’t shake
C#m E A
The reason you would leave is the reason you could stay
C#m E A
The reason you could stay, you could stay
C#m
And Lord knows you've got your reasons
E A
You could stay
C#m E A
But just listen to what I have to say.
