[G#] [C#] [B]
[F#] [C#]
[B] [C#] It's [G#m] been a while since I [F#] could hold my head [C#] up high.
It's [B] been a while since I [F#] first saw you.
[G#] [C#] [G#m] It's been a while [C#] since [F#] I can stand on my own two feet [G#] again.
[G#m] It's been a while since I [F#] could call you.
[G#m] And [B] everything I can [F#] remember is [C#] [G#m] not [B] the best it all [F#] may seem.
[C#] [G#m] The [B]
consequences that [F#] I'll render is [C#] [G#m] to test [B]
myself beyond [F#] my means.
[C#] [G#] It's been a [B] while since [F#] I couldn't say that I wasn't addicted.
[G#] And it's been a [B] while since I [F#] couldn't say I [C#] loved myself as well.
And it's [G#m] been a while since I've [F#] gone and fucked things up just like I [G#] always do.
And [B] it's been a while, but all [F#] that shit seems to disappear when I'm [G#m] with you.
And [B] everything I can [F#] remember is
[C#] [G#m] not [B] the best it all [F#] may seem.
[C#]
[G#m] [B] The consequences that [F#] I'll render [C#]
[G#m] is to go and [B] fuck things up [F#] again.
[C#]
[F#] Why [C#]
[G#m] [G#]
must I feel [F#] this way?
[C#]
[G#m] Just make things go [F#] away.
[C#]
[G#m] [G#] Just one more peaceful [F#] day.
[C#]
[G#m] [G#]
It's been a [G#m] while since [F#] I could look at myself [G#] [C#] straight.
[G#] And it's been a [B] while since I [F#] said I'm sorry.
[C#]
[G#] And it's [B] been a while [F#] since I've seen the way the candles light your [G#] face.
And it's [B] been a while, but [F#] I can still remember [C#] just the way [G#m] you did.
And [B] everything I can [F#] remember [C#]
[G#m] is not the [B]
best it all may [F#] seem.
To [C#] me, I know [G#m] it's real.
I [B] cannot blame this on [F#] my father.
[C#]
[G#m] He had [B] the best day cut [F#] for me.
[C#]
[G#m] [G#] And it's been a [G#m] while since I [C#] could [F#] hold [C#] [F#]
my head [G#] up high.
And it's been a [B] while since I [F#] said I'm sorry.
