Verse 1

F#               D               A-B
Waking up to the image I can't erase
I'm seeing ghosts of the feelings I once chased
F#               D               A-B
Shaken up by the answers you'd present
At the most, I believed in you, to some extent

F#               D               A-B
'Cause I feel that I can't go on
I trusted you to some extent
F#               D               A-B
With this void inside bleeding on
Shared love with you, I regret

F# - D - B - D//E - B - B//A
Salt jaded and empty

silence

Riff 1 over
F#  D  E(a)

F#               D               A-B
All I've known was living life a bit more
Meaningful than the days before
F#               D               A-B
That night you said you felt like shit
When you looked at me, I must admit
F#               D               A-B
Nobody's ever said the things you said to me
I trusted you to some extent
F#               D               A-B
Now I'll never give away the best of me
Shared love with you, I regret

F# - D - B - D//E - B - B//A
Salt jaded and empty
F# - D - B - B - A
silence
x2


E(a)               F#
And the long drive home,
A(a)                   D(a)
And the long drive home, I
F#(a)              D
Swerved round the lane hours
A                  B
Fatigued with the thoughts in my mind

E(a)               F#
And the long drive home,
A(a)                 D(a)
I swerved round the lane hours,
F#(a)              D
Wishing and praying to a blackened sky
A                       B
That one day, things would turn out like...


E(A)            F#                   A(a)         D
The lives I've seen and the love you shared with me
F#              D                   A            B
The lives I've seen and the love you shared with me


enjoy
cheers
