Key: A
Introduction:
A E
I'd say this more but I'm feeling troubled today
C#m B A
I'm stuck, my mind has been sinking for miles
E
I'm losing touch with my old friend
C#m B
Next time my finger slips I've gotta learn to grip this
A
Till it hurts
A E
This time is taking away from a stable heart
A E
A year ago anxiety kept me away
C#m B
But we've been over that, we'll make this better than before
A
I know that's not your smile but you still seem to wear it
E
You always meant a lot I never meant to be absent
A
We both know leaving does nothing to cure it
E
But regardless of the truth I never said that I liked it
A
THIS SONG IS SICK WITH HOPE
A
My time is wrapping up with you
E A
It slips away with everything you say and do
E A
I've said all I've said and I'm trying
E
To say the words that mean the most
C#m B
I'm gonna leave them here to settle before I become
A
A ghost
A E
This time is taking away from a stable heart
A E
3 weeks to go on Saturday I move away
C#m
But we've been over that
B A
We'll make this better than before
A
I've been driving and I've been listening
E F#m A
To the song that you left in my head
You'll always be there for me
E F#m
Just like a friend, just like you said
A E F#m
Don't say I've wasted your time here with bad news
A E F#m
Don't say you'll leave me the way that I found you
(I used to lie awake and stare at)
