Bm D Dsus4 D
[Verse 1]
Bm D Dsus4 D
Written in these walls are the stories that I can't explain
Bm D Dsus4 D
I leave my heart open but it stays right here empty for days
Bm G D Dsus4 D
She told me in the morning she don't feel the same about us in her bones
Bm G D Dsus4 D
Seems to me that when I die these words will be written on my stone
[Pre-Chorus]
G A D
And I'll be gone, gone tonight
G A D
The ground beneath my feet is open wide
G A D
The way that I been holding on too tight
A A7*
With nothing in between
[Chorus]
D
The story of my life
I take her home
G
I drive all night to keep her warm
Bm G D
And time... is frozen (the story of, the story of)
D
The story of my life
I give her hope
G
I spend her love
Bm G
Until she's broke inside
D
The story of my life
[Verse 2]
Bm D Dsus4 D
Written on these walls are the colors that I can't change
Bm D Dsus4 D
Leave my heart open but it stays right here in its cage
Bm G D Dsus4 D
I know that in the morning now I see us in the light upon a hill
Bm G D Dsus4 D
Although I am broken, my heart is untamed, still
[Pre-Chorus]
G A D
And I'll be gone, gone tonight
G A D
The fire beneath my feet is burning bright
G A D
The way that I been holding on so tight
A A7*
With nothing in between
[Chorus]
D
The story of my life
I take her home
G
I drive all night to keep her warm
Bm G D
And time... is frozen (the story of, the story of)
D
The story of my life
I give her hope
G
I spend her love
Bm G
Until she's broke inside
D
The story of my life
[Bridge]
Bm A
And I been waiting for this time to come around
Bm A A7*
But baby running after you is like chasing the clouds
[Final Chorus]

The story of my life

I take her home
G* G*
I drive all night to keep her warm

The story of my life

The story of my life [my life]
