[E] I used to think one day we'd tell the story [A] of us
How we met and the sparks flew instantly
[E] _ And people [B] would say they're the lucky [A] _ ones
I _ _ _
[E] _ used to know my [B] place was the spot next [A] to you
Now I'm searching the room for another [E] DC
Cause lately I don't [B] even know what page you're [A] on _ _ _ _ _ _
[B] Oh, simple [C#m] complications
[E] _ _
[A] And miscommunications lead [E] to fall [A] out
So many things that I wish you knew
[B] So many walls up I can't break [E] through
Now I'm standing [B] alone in a crowded [A] room
And we're not _ speaking _
[E] _ And I'm dying to [B] know
Is it killing [A] you like it's killing me?
[C#m] I don't know what [B] to say
Since the twist [E] of fate when it all [A] broke down
[C#m] And the story of us [B] looks alive like a tragedy [A] now
_ _ _ _ [B] Next chapter
_ _ [E] _ [C#m] _ _ [E] _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[E] _ How'd we end up this [B] way?
See me nervously [A] pulling with my clothes and trying to look busy
[E] _ And you're doing [B] your best to avoid [A] me _ _ _ _ _ _
[E] I'm starting to think one day [B] I'll tell the story [A] of us
How I was losing my mind when I saw you [E] here
But you held your [B] pride like you should've [A] held me _ _ _ _ _
[B] Oh, I'm scared to [C#m] see the ending
[E] Why are [A] we pretending this [E] is nothing?
[A] I tell you I miss you but I don't know how
[B] I've never heard silence quite this [E] loud
Now I'm standing [B] alone in a crowded [A] room
And we're not _ speaking
[E] _ And I'm dying to know
[B] Is it killing [A] you like it's killing me?
[C#m] I _ don't know what [B] to say
Since the twist [E] of fate when it all [A] broke down
[C#m] And the story of us [B] looks alive like a tragedy [A] now _ _ _ _ _ _
[B] _ _ _ _ [C#m] _ _ [E] _
[A] Mmm
_ _ _ This _ _
[B] _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[E] _ was looking like a calm _ [A] dash
Of who can act like they care less
[C#m] But I acted better [B] when you were on [A] my _ side _ _ _ _
[E] _ The battle's in your hands _ [A] now
But I would lay my armor down
[C#m] If you said [B] you'd rather love [A] than _ fight _ _ _ _
So many things that you wish I knew
[B] But the story of us might be ending [E]
soon
Now I'm standing alone in a crowded [A] room
And we're not _ speaking
[E] _ And I'm dying to [B] know
Is it killing [A] you like it's killing me? _
[C#m] And I don't know what [B] to say
Since the twist [E] of fate when it all [A] broke down
[C#m] And the story of us [B] looks alive like a tragedy [A] now Now _ Now _
[E] _ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _
[A] _ And we're not _ speaking
[E] _ And I'm dying [B] to know
Is it killing [A] you like it's killing me? _
[C#m] Yeah
I _ don't know [B] what to say
Since the twist [E] of fate
Cause we're [A] going down
[C#m] And the story of us [B] looks alive like a [A] tragedy now
_ _ The end
