A I was talking, you would point your ear at me Dmaj7 like I was making some sweet sound Esus4 you said, "make it loud" Bm But we can never come back here again Dsus2 A Asus4 we can only hope... to forget. A Walked through a cemetery archway Dmaj7 into a wood that hung so happily alone Esus4 but the words were all wrong. A You traded all my ill affections Dmaj7 for directions to a party across town. Esus4 You bring the house down. Bm But we can never go back there again Dsus2 we can only hope. So... A Burned is the house. Dsus2 Gone is the street. F#m7 E Here is the same disappointing retreat. A Dsus2 And I need it like hell if I'd lie to myself F#m7 E to think I could live that life over again. A Where the cuts were like guilt Dsus2 and the taste for your eyes F#m7 I say, "we're up when I E couldn't just say goodnight" F#m7 A D If you cry me a river you can baptize me in F#m7 A I say, "I guess that's it, now I've D E fucking seen everything" A Dsus2 Woah's A F#m7 You were the first real choice I would make, E Dsus2 E but we all make mistakes, so... (Like the beginning) Jumped overboard because the water’s always greener when the sun shines on the sea Would you drown for me? It's just as deep as you can make it you tread water when you could stand on your knees but don't pray to me. Cause when the lamp ray's taken all it can it will keep you dead. But but, Burned is the house. Gone is the street. Here is the same disappointing retreat. And I need it like hell if I'd lie to myself to think I could live that life over again. Where the cuts were like guilt and the taste for your eyes I say, "we're up when I couldn't just say goodnight" If you cry me a river you can baptize me in I say, "I guess that's it, yeah, I've fucking seen everything now" A F#m7 E Dsus4 A F#m7 E Dsus4 A D Woah's You were the first real choice I would make, You were the only one that I would take Now you'll take til I go. You were the first real choice I would make, but we all make mistakes, so...
