[E] I called you today,
[C#m] wanting a change [G#m] I never meant to hurt anyone, [B] never meant for you to pull out your guns
[E] But feelings won't stay in [C#m] this meager parade [G#m] You're beating to a different drum
[B] In lack of all the luster
[C#m] we've become Save your [F#] breath, you know [B]
[C#m] we've both
Tried our [F#] best, but it's leaving [B]
This might as well be done
I am [A] falling with the sun When the [E]
hour's getting sound
Won't save [B] with time I'm waving off the one who
[A] didn't let me learn
Though we [E] tried, it's a lie I can't keep
[C#m] dragging [F#] on
I'm untying the sinking [E] stone

[E] Don't sit on the fence [C#m] Living past tense
[G#m] Holding on to wishes and words [B] And folding out a picture we blur
[E] Cause here in the end [C#m] I'm losing a friend
[G#m] Fighting back a tear when it burns [B] Dividing up the pieces that [C#m] we were
Save your [F#] breath, you know we've [C#m] both Tried our [F#] best, but it's leaving

[B]
[F#] I [A] can't say you're all alone [C#m] Except in what I own here lies a [B] blanket
And not a [F#] bandage
I'm [A] unable to restrain [C#m] When the weight that we've began
[F#] Is drawing me under
[B] This might as well be done I [A] am falling with the sun
When the [E] hour's getting sound Won't save with [B] time
I'm waving off the one who
[A] didn't let me learn

tried, it's a lie I can't keep [F#] dragging on
