[C] [Em] [G]
[C] Time to let it go, [Em] it won't let go of [F#] me
[G] Hanging by a thread, caught in the cord and then falling back [C] into the black
Cause if I don't, [Em] if I wait till it feels [F#] right, [G] I'll be waiting my whole life
Closing my eyes, remember how we [C] were like old when you see me [Em] high
If you need me, [G] babe, that's the way it was
That's the history, [C] blue, how we used [Em] to roar
Like an open [G] fire, that's the way it was
But that's history
[C] Oh, oh, [Em] oh, oh, oh, [G] oh
That's the way it was, but that's history
[C] Oh, oh, oh, [Em] oh, oh, oh
[G] That's the way it was, but that's history
[C] I have a memory, [Em] of you visiting me at night
[G] Climbing in my bed, it was so quiet that you never woke [C] me
I loved the way you could [Em] see the good in everything
[G] But do we feel the fire?
Close my eyes, remember how [C] we were like old
When you see me [Em] high, if you need me, [G] babe
That's the way it was, that's the history, [C] blue
How we used [Em] to roll, like an [F#] open [G] fire
That's the way it was, but that's history
[C] Started with a word, [Em] now look at where we [G] are
Everything we've done, [D] is there on our faces
For anyone [C] willing to read between the lines
[Em] Now look at where we [G] are, everything we've done
Is [D] there on our faces for anyone [C] willing to
Oh, oh, [Em] oh, oh, [G] oh
That's the way it was, but that's history
[C] Oh, oh, oh, [Em] oh, oh
[G] That's the way it was, but that's history
Well [C] I gotta feel it, [D] darling, [G] it's possible
This [C] love's got no sealers [D] now
[G] And it's just so strong, and [C] I gotta feel it
[D] Like everything [G] is possible, I'm [C] trying [D] to change
[C]
Oh, when you see [Em] me high, if you need me, [G] babe
That's the way it was, that's the history, [C] blue
How we used [Em] to roll, like an open [G] fire
That's the way it was, but that's history
[C] We started with a [Em] word, now look at where [G] we are
Everything we've done, is there on our [D] faces
For anyone [C] willing to read between the lines
[Em] Now look at where [G] we are, everything we've done
Starting out with just [C] one
Oh, oh, [Em]
[G] oh, oh,
[C] [Em]
[G] oh
[C] Oh, when you see [Em] me high, if you need [G] me, babe
[D] That's the way it was, but that's history
