[G] _ [D] _ [A] _ [Dm] _ _ [D] _ _ _
_ _ _ [E] Now [B] it's [C#] simple [D]
to be.
[B] Sometimes you have [A] to let go when [G] there's [A] next [D] to nothing.
[B] You say [A] yes every time [F#] she says [G] no.
For pain and [A] love, she [D] comes to shove almost every time [E] you speak.
Somehow [G] you fight.
[A] But [E] sometimes it's crazy.
[B] And [G] somehow it's taking all [A] the life left [D] in you.
[F#] _ [G] _
[A] _ _ [D] You're losing [F#] ground, carrying that torch.
[B] You're not asking [G] for much.
_ And she [A] [G] has [A] had [D] time to [B] heal.
And she doesn't need you [A] any longer.
And [G] you've [A] had [D] time to drink.
[B] And you told her to tell her [A] you'd gotten [F#] much [G] stronger early in the [A] morning.
She says [D] I'm probably crushed.
[E] Everyone's asleep.
Some [G] of us work.
[A] You're [E] driving me crazy.
[B] I'm going [G] to get on with my [D] life.
Now [C] every night, [B] Friday night, you [A] keep fighting with [G] your friends.
[E] Somehow trying to [F#] make amends.
[E] _ _ [D] So you're supposed [A] to comfort enough [Bm] friends.
[Am] It's not the same.
She won't [G] understand.
You both learn to think [A] alike.
But what was so wrong?
[G] Where is she tonight?
Out [A] there drinking [E] while you're [B] left in [G] dizziness.
And it's taking all [A] the life left in [D]
you.
_ _ [A] _ [D] _ [F#] _ [G] _ [A] _
[D] _ You're losing ground, [F#] _ carrying that [B] torch.
You're not asking for [G] much.
Still [Am] somehow [D] _ you'll wait [F#] for her.
_ She'll [B] return.
But you [A] still carry [G] that torch.
That girl [A] we've [D] been called.
_ [F#m] _ [F#] _ _ _ _ [B] _ _
_ [A] _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ [A] _
[G] _ [D] _ _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _
