So make, your, excuseees now. . . that time has stolen all that you've eaaaaarned
A D F#m A D F#m A D E *rithm* E|-0-2-0-2-2-|
Make, your, excuseees now. . . the time stolen her. Time stolen her.!
[VerseI]:
F#m D Bm
*=single strum
Tell me that I'm a fool, That I've exaggerated, the situation
F#m A E Bm
'Cause I've never been scared like this, Of losing more than I have to give
A F# F Bm
It's soooo uun-fair, I believed, I could handle this
F#m D Asus2 Bm D D*
E|-0-2-0-2-2-| F#m**
I swooore I cooould, fix, every-thing. But I told myself lies, all of these years
E F#m (xxxxxxx close) E F#m (xxxxxxx close) E F#m
I told myself lies. All of these years
[Pre-chorusI]:
F#m E|-0-2-0-2-2-| F#m--| Asus2
E|-0-2-0-2-2---------------------------------------------------|
The fear that moves in, and stays here. The words that replay, in your ears
F#m E|-0-2-0-2-2-| F#m--| Asus2
E|-0-2-0-2-2------------------------------------------------------|
The grip that you held, has weakened. Was this life that was yours, forsaken
Bm D
But I can't take my eeeyes ooff ooooof yoou
*=single strum
[Chorus]:
E* A F#m Bm
And we were still so cool, Our bodies smooth and young. The dreams of getting older,
D E A C#m
Were never supposed to come. The curse of perfect days, You forget just what you've made.
Bm D A D
And you find yourself just praying, For something more than this, l i f e
Bm D A D (Close)
Something more than this, l i f e X X X X XX
[Bridge]:
F#m E F#m
We wait for the doctors, to prescribe their medicines. And hold, their bad news,
D F#m
as if later, it will make more sense. But I've never been scared like this,
E F#m C#m
Just waiting for my strength to give. this is the rock, did I broke myself again?
[VerseII]:
D F#m
We believed we've had our way (And we did, and we did)
D A G
And the memories we have made (Everyday was the best day of my life)
D F#m
I could neever repay what I owe (I'll replace, I'll reload)
D Bm A G
A
Eeeeven thooough I, reeead the ending before the start, I would have never changed, a
single part
Bm F#m D
I would have never changed, a single part
[Bridge-out-verse]:
A Bm F#m D A
Tell me I'm a fool, tell me I'm just scared. Say I'm such a drama queen, it's not even fair
Bm F#m
Let me see your eyes, the love that's right behind
D F#m D F#m D
And I'll promise you. That it will never diiiiiiiieeeeee. it will never diiiiiiiieeeeee
[Final Chorus]: *=single strum
D A F#m
And we were still so cool, Our bodies smooth and young
Bm D
The dreams of getting older, Were never supposed to come
E A C#m
The curse of perfect days, You forget just what you've made
Bm D A D
And you find yourself just praying, For something more than this, l i f e
