I've used hammers made out of wood.

A chordA D chordD
I have played games with pieces and rules.

Bm chordBm C chordC
I've deciphered tricks at the bar,

A chordA D chordD
but now you're gone I havn't figured out why.

Bm chordBm C chordC
I've come up with riddles and jokes about war.

A chordA D chordD
I've figured out numbers and what they're for.

Bm chordBm C chordC
I've understood feelings and I've understood words,

A chordA
but how could you be taken away.

With heavy breath,

awakened regrets,

backpages and days alone that could have been spent,

together, but we were miles apart,

every inch between us becomes light years now.

No time to be void,

or to save up on life,

ah you've got to spend it all...
