Key: D
Introduction:
Bm G D A
I never thought the
Bm
day would come when I
G
Would be the poison in
the pen I use to write
D
You said you were alone in
A F#
somewhat of a nervous tone
G
I guess it was the blank
look on your face that
Bm A
was easy to replace
D
So then I went and drank
A
myself into an idiot
all through the night
F#
Recounting all my
Bm A
paranoid and selfish
G A F#
thoughts but I was right
I made a space for
Bm
you inside my soul
G
And let my feelings kill
the part that I control
D
So part of you was me
A
neglectful maybe cold
F#
it seemed Despite
G
having the wounds we
both imbibe the scars are
Bm A
somewhere we can't hide
D
I then stayed up for two
more years just thinking
A
of the sacrifice you made
F# Bm
Indifferent to the reason
A G D/F#Em
so apparent in the pain
D
I polished off another
drink and taught myself
F#m
to numb and drift away
G
For one more night so
A Bm F#
I could justify the day
G A
So now I entertain
the thought of
F# Bm
going on all alone
E
But you are all the
A G D/F#Em
life I've ever known
D
I swear one day I'll get
it back something that
A
is already dead and gone
F# Bm
Again i see the trumpet
A
player looking for his
G D/F#Em D
song Don't worry
I won't follow you that part
F#m
of me is learning to let got
G
What was a space is like
A Bm
a cancer in my soul
