[Intro]
Cmaj    Cmaj/B    Am
Cmaj    Cmaj/B    Am
 
[Verse 1]
Cmaj    Cmaj/B    Am
I know, it’s hard, to wait for me to make the move
Cmaj    Cmaj/B    Am
Sometimes, I wonder, why I carry on this ruse
Fmaj  Cmaj/E Gmaj                                          Cmaj    Cmaj/B    Am
Hoping that what we have would last a little longer
 
Cmaj    Cmaj/B    Am
Silence, from me, could mean but many different things
Cmaj    Cmaj/B    Am
You always had a hold on the last of my heartstrings.
Fmaj Cmaj/E    Gmaj                                  Cmaj    Cmaj/B    Am
I still, love you, like I have to very few, but the time keeps running out
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Fmaj                Gmaj      Cmaj    Cmaj/B    Am
Tides come and go I know that you’ll only be here once
                   Fmaj              Gmaj
But I’m just too afraid, just too afraid...
 
Cmaj    Cmaj/B    Am
So I hide my feelings behind an iron curtain,
Cmaj    Cmaj/B    Am
Place my words carefully in black and white
Cmaj    Cmaj/B    Am
What we had then was good, although I’m certain
Fmaj Gmaj                                  Cmaj
One step forward and I’ll still be alright
 
[Chorus]
But now you’re just a
Am       Gmaj  Cmaj
Distant memory
                               Am   Gmaj Cmaj
Written in a story by the foolish me
               Am    Gmaj Cmaj
Been bitten once or twice by reality
                Am   Gmaj Cmaj
Yet I refuse to learn until you’ve made me grieve
 
[Verse 2]
Cmaj    Cmaj/B    Am
The ship, you sailed, seem to drift away from shore
Cmaj    Cmaj/B    Am
I guess, I lost, opportunities for more
Fmaj Cmaj/E    Gmaj                            Cmaj    Cmaj/B    Am
I failed to anchor down my chance before it faded
 
Cmaj    Cmaj/B    Am
Took me, way too long, to realise that you’re the one
Cmaj    Cmaj/B    Am
You moved, ahead, when I didn’t try to run
Fmaj Cmaj/E    Gmaj                                  Cmaj    Cmaj/B    Am
You have, been playing, this game for two alone, and I’m the one to blame
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Fmaj                Gmaj      Cmaj    Cmaj/B    Am
Tides come and go I know that you’ll only be here once
                    Fmaj             Gmaj
But I’m just too afraid, just too afraid...
 
Cmaj    Cmaj/B    Am
So I hide my feelings behind an iron curtain,
Cmaj    Cmaj/B    Am
Place my words carefully in black and white
Cmaj    Cmaj/B    Am
What we had then was good, although I’m certain
Fmaj Gmaj                                  Cmaj
One step forward and I’ll still be alright
 
[Chorus]
But now you’re just a
Am       Gmaj  Cmaj
Distant memory
                               Am   Gmaj Cmaj
Written in a story by the foolish me
               Am    Gmaj Cmaj
Been bitten once or twice by reality
                Am   Gmaj Cmaj
Yet I refuse to learn until you’ve made me grieve
 
[Bridge]
                Fmaj            Gmaj       Cmaj Cmaj/B Am
Why can’t I have shown to you, how I felt about you then
            Fmaj                Gmaj                     Cmaj
Why did I still fear that you, won’t feel the same
            Fmaj            Gmaj                  Cmaj Cmaj/B Am
Why did I look back and worry when It’s already too late
Fmaj                 Cmaj/E                   Dm  7 Gmaj7
To make a change, it won’t matter anyway
 
[Outro]
Cause now you’re just a
Am       Gmaj  Cmaj
Distant memory
                               Am   Gmaj Cmaj
When we were close I enjoyed your company
               Am    Gmaj Cmaj
All I did was leave and  let you be
                Fmaj Gmaj Cmaj
And now you’re but a distant memory
