[Ab] [E]
[Ab] [B]
[E] [Gm]
[Bb]
You were a face in the [F] crowd [Gm] [Bb] I threw myself onto [Gm] you
[Bb]
I tried to take you away
[C] I didn't know how [Gm] to do
But I [D] could not give [F] you the
[Gm] moves [D]
Some [A] things I said were [Gm] true
Still we clung [Bb] to a ghost I feel so bad you never [Eb] knew
[C]
I felt [Cm] like you should know [C] But I don't [Ab] need to listen
When
[Gm] [Eb] [G]
[Cm] you walked away I [Gm] reached your name
As you walked [Eb]
away As you walked away
[Cm]
We can never get it back What we choose to throw away
[G] When you walked [A] away I [Gm] reached your name
[Cm] As you [Eb] walked away As you walked away
[Cm] [Gm] We [Cm]
can never [Eb] get it back [Ab] What we choose to throw away
[G] I don't know how to hold on to something That seems to come in control by the day
Every time I think I can handle You only seem to get [Bb] farther away
I never realized just [Eb] how hard it was For a person like me to
For a person [Cm] like me to
[F] When [Ab]
[G] you [Cm] walked away I [G] reached your [Cm] name
As [Eb] you walked away As you walked away
[Cm]
We can never get it back What we choose to throw [G] away
When you walked away I [Gm] reached your name
[Cm] As you [Eb] walked away As you walked away
[Cm]
We can never [Gm] get it back [Ab] What we choose to throw away
[G] I couldn't watch you wish it was something That seemed more impossible [Gm] by the day
Every time I thought of you, son I only seemed to get farther [Eb] away
I never realized just how hard it [C]
was For a person [Ab] like me to
[G]
Walked out with your life [Db] like it was Held on [E] to [G] the world
I'm crippled because of dreams That [Db] eclipsed reality
Crushing it just feels real, bursting with [F] happiness
[Ab]
I couldn't hold on [Db] to
[Bb]
some things that [F] mattered
[Ab]
It was my big [Db] mistake [Bb]
To think that I [E] was too over [F]
