Intro: C#m--E--B-- x2
Verse 1:
C#m E B
It was just another day
C#m E
Cars were driving by
B
and people lined the streets
C#m E B
We were walking side by side
But there was something on my mind
C#m E B
And I couldn't bear to walk
another step with this inside
Chorus 1:
C#m E B
The rain will fall
G#m
and wash it all away
C#m E B (hold) G#m-E
Our fears will call
Verse 2:
C#m E
There's some things
B
you just don't say
C#m E
But when it's been
so long there's
B
just no other way
C#m E B
I can't do this anymore
I can't pretend
C#m
that I'm not bored
E
And I don't want to
B
spend the rest of
my life out of my control
Chorus 2:
C#m E B
The rain will fall
G#m
and wash it all away
C#m E B
Our fears will call
G#m
and make us run away
C#m B
This is the last
E
thing left to do
F#m
And if there's one
C#m
things I have learned
B
You can only lie to
E
yourself for so long
F#m
Until it becomes truth
Post Chorus:
Growl:
C#m B E
I know I can't be the
F#m
one left holding the bag
C#m B E
I wish I could not
F#m
make it hurt so bad

Don't be surprised
B E
I gonna let you run away

Don't turn around

I'm gonna walk the o-ther way
C#m B
I'm not going to chase
E F#m
you down the street
I won't chase you
G#m E F#m
I won't chase you
C#m
Don't be surprised
B E
I gonna let you run away
F#m
Don't turn around
G#m E F#m
I'm gonna walk the o-ther way
C#m B
I'm not going to chase

you down the street
I won't chase you

down the street

it could be an E(221) too, (And i don't wanna spend...)

Intro:(C#m-E-B 2x)
Verse 1: (do C#m-E-B 'till chorus)
It was just another day
Cars were driving by and people lined the streets
We were walking side by side
But there was something on my mind
And I couldn't bear to walk another step with this inside
Chorus: (C#m-E-B-G#m 2x)
The rain will wash it all away
Our fears will call
Verse 2: (do C#m-E-B with some palm mutes)
There's some things you just don't say
But when it's been so long there's just no other way
I can't do this anymore, I can't pretend that I'm not bored
And I don't want to spend the rest of my life out of my control
Chorus (full): (C#m-E-B-G#m 2x)
The rain will wash it all away
Our fears will call and make us run away
(C#m-B-F#m\E-G#m\F#m 2x)
This is the last thing left to do
And if there's one thing I have learned
You can only lie to yourself for so long
Until it becomes truth
Post-Chorus (C#m-B-F#m\E-G#m\F#m 2x)
I know I can't be the one left holding the bag
I wish I could not make it hurt so bad
Interlude: C#m(hold)--B(hold)--E-F#m(hold)--G#m--E-ÂF#m x2
Bridge: (do interlude chords all over)
Don't be surprised, I gonna let you run away
Don't turn around, I'm gonna walk the other way
I'm not going to chase you down the street
I won't chase you, I won't chase you
Don't be surprised, I gonna let you run away
Don't turn around, I'm gonna walk the other way
I'm not going to chase you down the street
I won't chase you down the street
Repeat full chorus
Coda: (Post chorus played with C#m-E-B-G#m)
I know I can't be the one left holding the bag
(The rain will wash it all away)
I wish I could not make it hurt so bad
(Our fears will call and make us run away)
Message: You've kept secrets from your partner
and you fear that you may get busted. You decided
to part ways with him/her but you fear that you
might hurt him/her with your decision. But you have
no choice but to do so rather than staying with
his/her side as you feel guilt and shame. The
weather, on the other hand, may symbolize
your relationship - an ordinary sunny day turned
into a hard rain as you part ways with him/her.
And your fears make you choose that decision
to quit, as mentioned in the chorus that it will
make you run away. It's theme supposed to be sad,
but the music itself expresses joy and optimism,
making sure that you won't hurt someone that much.
