C Em Am Dm
Dm G C C
C Em Am Dm
C G C C
[Verse 1]
C Em Am Dm
Oh it may be, that we are neverending
Dm G C C
but i wouldn't ever shine my shoes for you
C Em Am Dm
and you may think that we are done pretending
Dm G C C
but the rain that I wrote came from the blue
[Chorus]
Am Am C C
drain my wine like that widow at the window
G C
that plays through my mind
G C
that i'm on another skyline
C Em
from you
Am Dm
from you
Dm C
from you
C G C
from you
[Verse 2]
C Em Am Dm Dm G C C
Oh I look back on when we were two drifters drifting along so aimlessly
C Em
we lost our way
Am Dm Dm G C C
forget those days cause i'm done pretending that there's still so much for us to see
[Chorus 2]
Am Am C C
drain my wine like that widow at the window
G C
that plays through my mind
G C
that I'm on another skyline
Am
from you
Am C C
dress my best clothes just to lean against a lamp post
G C
and think of those days
G C
of time spent the wrong way
Dm
with you
[Bridge]
Dm G G
ink seeps in through my skin
Em Em Am Am
forgotten as I etch it in
Dm G G
though I may feel better for a while
Em Em Am Am
even moods grow in and out of style
Dm Dm G G
Let you get ahead
C Em Am Dm
Dm G C C
Dm Dm G
remember me fondly when i'm gone
G Em Em Am Am
I've already been happy for far too long
Dm Dm G
I know it's such a shame that we pretend
G Em Em Am Am
My darling we're racing towards different ends
Dm Dm G G
remember me fondly when i'm gone
[Verse 3]
C Em Am Dm
oh i look back on when we were two drifters
Dm G C C
drifting along so aimlessly
