One thing I don't know why
It doesn't even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind, I designed this rhyme
To explain in due time
All I know
Time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away
It's so unreal
Didn't look out below
Watch the time go right out the window
Tryin' to hold on, did-didn't even know
I wasted it all just to watch you go
I kept everything inside and even though I tried
It all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually
Be a memory of a time when I tried so hard
I tried so hard and got so far
But in the end it doesn't even matter
I had to fall to lose it all
But in the end it doesn't even matter
One thing, I don't know why
It doesn't even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind, I designed this rhyme
To remind myself how I tried so hard
In spite of the way you were mockin' me
Acting like I was part of your property
Remembering all the times you fought with me
I'm surprised it got so far
Things aren't the way they were before
You wouldn't even recognize me anymore
Not that you knew me back then
But it all comes back to me in the end
You kept everything inside and even though I tried
It all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually
Be a memory of a time when I tried so hard
I tried so hard and got so far
But in the end it doesn't even matter
I had to fall to lose it all
But in the end it doesn't even matter
I've put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
For all this
There's only one thing you should know
I've put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
For all this
There's only one thing you should know
I tried so hard and got so far
But in the end it doesn't even matter
I had to fall to lose it all
But in the end it doesn't even matter







I have found that the best way to bring
out the harmonics on these high strings
is to rest your finger over the fret it's
self therefore if the harmonic is on the 5th
fret place your finger right before the
6th fret as you play it becomes easier.

And for all this There's only one thing you should know
 
[Chorus]
           Em              G               D                    C
I tried so hard And got so far But in the end It doesn't even matter
           Em              G               D                    C
I had to fall To lose it all But in the end It doesn't even matter

               Dm
It starts with one thing I don't know why
   C
It doesn't even matter how hard you try
Bb
Keep that in mind I designed this rhyme
   C
To explain in due time
      Dm
All I know, time is a valuable thing
C
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Bb
Watch it count down to the end of the day
          C
The clock ticks life away
          Dm
It's so unreal, didn't look out below
C
Watch the time go right out the window
Bb
Trying to hold on, but didn't even know
   C
I wasted it all just to 
          Dm
Watch you go, I kept everything inside
    C
And even though I tried, it all fell apart
Bb
What it meant to me will eventually be
  C
A memory of a time when
 
 
[Chorus]
 
           Dm              F

To remind myself how
           Dm                                           C
I tried so hard, in spite of the way you were mocking me
                                       Bb
Acting like I was part of your property
                                            C
Remembering all the times you fought with me
                        Dm
I'm surprised it got so far
                                     C
Things aren't the way they were before
                                     Bb
You wouldn't even recognize me anymore
 
Not that you knew me back then
       C
But it all comes back to me 
       Dm
In the end you kept everything inside
         C
And even though I tried, it all fell apart

What it meant to me will eventually be

A memory of a time when

One thing I don't know why
It doesn't even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind, I designed this rhyme
To explain in due time
All I know
Time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away
It's so unreal
Didn't look out below
Watch the time go right out the window
Tryin' to hold on, did-didn't even know
I wasted it all just to watch you go
I kept everything inside and even though I tried
It all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually
Be a memory of a time when I tried so hard
I tried so hard and got so far
But in the end it doesn't even matter
I had to fall to lose it all
But in the end it doesn't even matter
One thing, I don't know why
It doesn't even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind, I designed this rhyme
To remind myself how I tried so hard
In spite of the way you were mockin' me
Acting like I was part of your property
Remembering all the times you fought with me
I'm surprised it got so far
Things aren't the way they were before
You wouldn't even recognize me anymore
Not that you knew me back then
But it all comes back to me in the end
You kept everything inside and even though I tried
It all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually
Be a memory of a time when I tried so hard
I tried so hard and got so far
But in the end it doesn't even matter
I had to fall to lose it all
But in the end it doesn't even matter
I've put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
For all this
There's only one thing you should know
I've put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
For all this
There's only one thing you should know
I tried so hard and got so far
But in the end it doesn't even matter
I had to fall to lose it all
But in the end it doesn't even matter

version 9







Tuning: Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb
Key: Em

[Intro]
Em D C D x2
 
[Verse 1: Mike Shinoda with Chester Bennington]
                     Em
It starts with one...
 
One, then multiplies 'til you can taste the sun
D
And burned by the sky you try to take it from
C
But if it falls, there's no place to run
D                            Em
Crumbling down, it's so unreal
 
They're dealing you in to determine your end
D
And sending you back again, to places you've been
C                                             D
And bending your will 'til it breaks you, within
                             Em
And still, they fill their eyes
 
With the twilight through the skylight
D
And the highlights on a frame of steel
C
See the brightness of your likeness
            D                             Em
As I write this on a pad with the way I feel
 
Hear the screaming in my dreaming
D
As it's seeming that you've played your part
C
Like you're heartless, take apart this
           D
In the darkness, but I know that I've tried so hard
 
[Chorus: Chester Bennington]
            Em              G
I tried so hard and got so far
            D                     C
But in the end, it doesn't even matter
          Em              G
I had to fall to lose it all
             D                    C    B
But in the end, it doesn't even matter
 
[Verse 2: Mike Shinoda with Chester Bennington]
                      Em
I've looked down the line
 
And what's there is not what ought to be
D
Held back by the battles they fought for me
C
Calling me to be part of their property
D                                Em
And now, I see that I get no chance
 
I get no break
            D
Fakes and snakes quickly lead to mistakes
             C
And as the tightrope within slowly starts to thin
       D                               Em
I can only hope that they close their eyes
 
To the twilight through the skylight
D
And the highlights on a frame of steel
C
See the brightness of your likeness
           D                           Em
As I write this on a pad to the way I feel
 
Hear the screaming in my dreaming
D
As it's seeming that you've played your part
C
Like you're heartless, take apart this
         D
In the darkness, but I know that I tried so hard
 
[Chorus: Chester Bennington]
            Em              G
I tried so hard and got so far
            D                     C
But in the end, it doesn't even matter
          Em              G
I had to fall to lose it all
             D                    C    B
But in the end, it doesn't even matter
 
[Bridge: Chester Bennington]
             Em       D              C           D
I've put my trust in you, pushed as far as I can go
         Em                 D                   C   D
For all this, there's only one thing you should know
             Em       D              C           D
I've put my trust in you, pushed as far as I can go
         Em                 D                    C

For all this, there's only one thing you should know

I tried so hard and got so far

But in the end, it doesn't even matter
