Intro: D# - A#- Cm - G#

  Cm
I dream a lot, I know you say
     G#
I've got to get away
    D#
The world is not yours for the taking
   A#
Is all you ever say
  Cm
I know I'm not the best for you
    G#
But promise that you'll stay
           D#
Cause if I watch you go

You'll see me wasting 
       A#
You'll see me wasting away


Chorus:
         D#
'Cause today 
                      A#
You walked out of my life
        Cm
'Cause today 
                         G#
Your words felt like a knife
                    Cm - G# - D# - A#
I'm not living this life


   Cm
Goodbyes are meant for lonely people 
G#
Standing in the rain
       D#
And no matter where I go 
            A#
It's always pouring all the same
     Cm
These streets are filled with memories
     G#
Both perfect and in pain
          D#
And all I wanna do is love you
            A#
But I'm the only one to blame


(Chorus) 

            A#
But what do I know if you're leaving

All you did was stop the bleeding
         Cm
But these scars will stay forever

These scars will stay forever
          A#
And these words they have no meaning

If we cannot find the feeling
        G#
That we held on to together

Try your hardest to remember


D#
Stay with me
   A#
Or watch me bleed
 Cm               G#
I need you just to breathe


(Chorus) 

D#nd: D# - A# - Cm - G# - D#
