Tears

[Verse 1]
                      C                   Em                 F
We went down with the flames of love that flies like a cannonball
            C                        Em             F
You took me higher when all that was left to do was fall
       C
Purple hearts love, you roll your eyes
            Em                      F
Sent with a kiss 'til you awkwardly sigh
               C
I wish I could build a time machine
      Em          F
Lying next to you just a little longer


[Pre-Chorus]
C                      G
Ooh, around and around tears come falling down


[Chorus]
C
 I kept your photo in my dresser drawer
Em                         F
 Put on a t-shirt that was left laying on the floor
C
 Re-read a letter that you wrote before
        Em                       F
You are no longer around and the tears come falling down


[Verse 2]
                         C
Felt like a punch in the gut
                   Em              F
It's tough when it catches you off guard
             C                   Em
A word like "forever" is a scary thought
                       F
That's why it hurts so hard
C
I pulled my car into a parking lot

I turn the key and left the headlights on
Em                                      F
Listened to the windshield wipers going back and forth
      C
But I can't help it if I get distracted

See, my mind wanders to a re-enacted
Em                                    F
Living in a different universe 'til I opened up the door


[Pre-Chorus]
C                      G
Ooh, around and around tears come falling down


[Chorus]
C
 I kept your photo in my dresser drawer (Ooh)
Em                         F
 Put on a t-shirt that was left laying on the floor
C
 Re-read a letter that you wrote before
        Em
You are no longer around
F
Tears come falling down
C
 It only lasted for a second in time
Em                                F
 These are the memories that I've memorized
      C
I can see you, I can see you when I open my eyes
        Em            F
You're around and the tears come falling down

[Bridge]
        C     Am
Falling down
        Em   F
Falling down (Tears come falling down)
        C     Am
Falling down (Fallin', fallin', I'm falling)
      Em
Lying next to you
F
Tears come falling down
        C     Am
Falling down
        Em   F
Falling down (Tears come falling down)
        C     Am
Falling down (Fallin', fallin', I'm falling)
      Em
Lying next to you
F
Just a little longer


[Chorus]
C
 I kept your photo in my dresser drawer (Ooh)
Em                         F
 Put on a t-shirt that was left laying on the floor
C
 Re-read a letter that you wrote before
        Em
You are no longer around
F
Tears come falling down
C
 It only lasted for a second in time
Em                                F
 These are the memories that I've memorized
      C
I can see you, I can see you when I open my eyes
        Em            F
You're around and the tears come falling down
