[G] You [Bm] on it saw [Em] red after I set [C] out Can we continue?
[D] Hidden from your [Bm] view In the [Em] blue corner that [C] I painted myself
[F#m] into Then [Em] we started [G] to fight
[C] And it changed [E] everything Here's the break
[F#] You dropped the pen I can't understand it not
After all [D] we've been [F#] through Words start to fly out of my glass jar
And I will find one to walk [D] right into [C] You knock me out
[Am] It was the sweetest punch The bell [G] goes
I can hear it ringing but I didn't see it coming

[G]
Now the [D] rope is spinning [A] but you're either last or [C] don't

In the blue corner [C] where I seemed to hang [B] suspended
[Em] There were seconds [G] to go You [C] delivered [D] the blow
Here I go [Em] [F#] You dropped the band I can't understand it not
