[Verse]
                  Amaj7
I'm still in the pool you left me in
                      Emaj7
And I thought it'd be cool to be melted down
                    Amaj7
To be water on the ground

You could walk on or swim through
Emaj7
Here I am at the top again
Emaj7
Dreaming that you let me in
C#m           B            Asus2
Talk me down, talk me down
Asus2
Talk me down


[Chorus]
E                                       Asus2
We leave our marks on things that will never be ours
     C#m                      B
The streets are scarred, the trees are carved
E
With names that glow like
                 Asus2
Diamond rings on one knee in a nice restaurant
    C#m                B             Emaj7
I'm better now, those dreams are gone


[Verse]
                         Amaj7
Cause I thought it'd be you and me
                             Emaj7
Hovering 'round everything I knew we'd be
                                          Amaj7
If autumn flowers could just hold out 'til spring

And shake off the snowfall
Emaj7
Here I am at the top again
Emaj7
Desperate for oxygen
C#m           B
Talk me down, talk me down
Emaj7
Here I am at a loss again
Emaj7
Starving for oxytocin
C#m           B            Asus2
Talk me down, talk me down


[Chorus]
E                                       Asus2
We leave our marks on things that will never be ours
     C#m                      B
The streets are scarred, the trees are carved
E
With names that glow like
                 Asus2
Diamond rings on one knee in a nice restaurant
    C#m                B             Emaj7 Amaj7 
I'm better now, those dreams are gone


[Bridge]
Emaj7                             Amaj7
Fading faster in the picture you took of us

Just the two of us
Emaj7                                       Amaj7
There's no future in this phantom limb I've sown to us
                      Emaj7
And there's a little spot where I let you in
            Amaj7                                      Emaj7
Now it's a vacant lot where your name never washes off
                        Amaj7
Cause I thought it'd be you and me

Circling infinity


[Chorus]
E                                       Asus2
We leave our marks on things that will never be ours
     C#m                      B
The streets are scarred, the trees are carved
E
With names that glow like
                 Asus2
Diamond rings on one knee in a nice restaurant
    C#m                B             Emaj7
I'm better now, those dreams are gone
