Tom: Ebm
E#m C# B A#
[Verse 1]
E#m C#
When days seem meaningless, don't go and lie
B A#
As long as I'm right here, there's no need to try
E#m C#
Head up high, or you'll never win
B A#
There's only dead ends waiting, when you give in
[Verse 2]
E#m C#
Yet they go on asking, when all of the time
B A#
It's always lying in the day, 'til the dead of the night
E#m C#
All of your flaws with every mistake
B
And all the reasons that may cause you to break
C#
Show me what it takes
[Chorus]
B C#
Was everything really what you wanted though?
A# E#m C#
Does anything get you feeling all alone?
B A#
If so, don't be dying on me
E#m
Or I'll be holding tighter
B C#
'Cause I'll be here, giving all my love to you
A# E#m C# B
Even if there wasn't a lot for me to do
A# C# E#m
I'll keep on trying harder to walk you through
[Verse 3]
E#m C#
When life gives agony, don't ever cry
B A#
As long as I'm right here, you won't need to try
E#m C#
The aisle's where I'm always waiting for you
B A#
Out near the front, so no one's stealing the view
[Verse 4]
E#m C#
But there's always conflict among all the peace
B A#
It's how the world goes around in a cycle of greed
E#m C#
All of that love, with all of the hate
B
And all the no-good lies that they all create
C#
You face it all the same
[Chorus]
B C#
But tragedy always seemed to rule the right
A# E#m C#
Reality always had to roll the die
B A# E#m C#
And I, I didn't want to see you remain abandoned forever
B C#
So really then, were we ever wrong or right?
A# E#m C# B
An ending, never would've come to light, oh, why
A# E#m
Were we never meant to see, eye to eye?
[Interlude]
E#m C# B C#
E#m C# B C#
[Bridge]
B C#
The light dies down, yet you don't really mind
D#m
It feels like everything goes slower when you move into sight
B C#
The air gets cold, and you signal the end
D#m
But I could tell that you were aching with all of your stances
E#m C# B
I'll be fine, but my heart won't agree
E#m C# B
It keeps accelelerating every time you try looking back at me
E#m C#
"But I will find"
B C#
"I wanna find that hand of yours"
B A#
Until the day that I hold it close to mine
[Chorus]
B C#
Was everything really what you wanted though?
A#m E#m C#
Does anything get you feeling all alone?
B A# E#m C#
If so, don't be dying on me or nothing else would matter
B C#
But even then, I would love you all the same
A# E#m C# B
Even if everybody walks away, I won't
A# B
Now that we're here, I guess you'll know
C#
I was always on my own
A# E#m C# B
I couldn't ever think of letting go, oh no
C# E#m A#m B
It didn't matter if I was left here to die
A# E#m A#m B A#
You can cut me deeper, but I'll be fine
E#m A#m B A#
'Cause in the end I wouldn't mind
