-Intro-
A Bm Dsus2 G
A Bm Dsus2 G
D A G
I used to think one day we'd tell the story of us
D
How we met and the sparks flew instantly
A G
People would say, "They're the lucky ones"
D A G
I used to know my place was a spot next to you
D
Now I'm searching the room for an empty seat
A G
'Cause lately I don't even know what page you're on
A Bm
Oh, a simple complication
D Asus4
Miscommunications lead to fall out
G
So many things that I wish you knew
A
So many walls that I can't break through
D Asus4 G
Now I'm standing alone in a crowded room
D
And we're not speaking
Asus4 G
And I'm dying to know is it killing you
(G)
Like it's killing me?
Bm A D
I don't know what to say since a twist of fate
G
When it all broke down
Bm A G
And the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now- Next chapter
A Bm Dsus2 G
D A
How'd we end up this way?
G
See me nervously pulling at my clothes
D
And trying to look busy
A G
And you're doing your best to avoid me
D A G
I'm starting to think one day I'll tell the story of us
D
How I was losing my mind when I saw you here
A G
But you held your pride like you should have held me
A Bm
Oh, we're scared to see the ending
D Asus4
Why are we pretending this is nothing?
G
I'd tell you I miss you but I don't know how
A -stop
I've never heard silence quite this loud
D Asus4 G
Now I'm standing alone in a crowded room
D
And we're not speaking
Asus4 G
And I'm dying to know is it killing you
(G)
Like it's killing me?
Bm A D
I don't know what to say since a twist of fate
G
When it all broke down
Bm A G
And the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now
A Bm Dsus2 G
A Bm Dsus2 G
D -once G
This is looking like a contest
(G)
Of who can act like they care less
D A G
But I liked it better when you were on my side
D G
The battle's in your hands now
(G)
But I would lay my armor down
Bm A G
If you'd say you'd rather love than fight
G
So many things that you wish I knew
A -stop
But the story of us might be ending soon
D (2x *fast/stop)
Now I'm standing alone
Asus4 (2x*) G -once G
In a crowded room and we're not speaking
D Asus4 G
And I'm dying to know is it killing you
G
Like it's killing me?
Bm A D
I don't know what to say since a twist of fate
G
When it all broke down
Bm
And the story of us
A G D Asus4
Looks a lot like a tragedy now, now, no-----ow
G D
And we're not speaking
Asus4 G
And I'm dying to know is it killing you
(G)
Like it's killing me?
Bm A D
I don't know what to say since a twist of fate
G
'Cause we're go-ing down
Bm A G ...stop
And the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now
