Something Sentimental

[Verse 1]
E            A
 You walked out
      E                    A
And I said something sentimental
E                   A
 You cleared your throat
          E                 A
And you said something sentimental


[Refrain]
D                                   A
 Funny how the world comes crashing down
   D                     A                       E      A
And all the words that meant so much mean nothing now


[Verse 2]
E            A
 You just laughed
      E                   A
When I questioned your devotion
E            A
 We're not human anymore
         E                     A
We're just going through the motions


[Refrain]
D                A
 Funny how you meant so much to me
D                A                           E      A
 And nowdays, I can't help but smile when you leave


[Chorus]
F#m          B
 Save your breath
      E                    A
'Cause nothing saves us from this disaster
F#m          B
Shut your lips
 E                     A
When you speak, I feel nothing after
F#m           B
 Save your breath
           D                         A
'Cause sentimental words won't work this time
E A E A

[Verse 3]
E       A
 Day by day
       E                 A
We just drift a little further
E              A
 You're a shape in the distance
E                  A
 Soon you'll be a stranger


[Refrain]
D                   A
 Funny how the world comes crashing down
D                       A                           E   A
 But sure enough the mess we made means nothing now


[Chorus]
F#m           B
 Save your breath
           E              A
'Cause nothing saves us from this disaster
F#m        B
 Shut your lips
E                       A
When you speak, I feel nothing for ya
F#m            B
 Save your breath
           D                    A
'Cause sentimental words won't work this time
F#m7        B
 Save your breath (Save your breath)
           E                       A
'Cause nothing saves us from this disaster
F#m          B
 Shut your lips (Shut your lips)
           E                     A
When you speak, I just can't look at ya
F#m           B
 Save your breath (Save your breath)
          D                     A                 E
'Cause sentimental words won't work
