=Verse 1=
D
The feeling starts to sink in,
D5ED55
But it's beginning to rust,
GBm
Still hanging onto the things that we discussed,
AG
But the point that was made isn't said and done...
D
Now the sun shines so bright, but it won't shine for you,
G
You remind me of rain in July
Bm
And the gloom that I felt for a year,
AG
And the clouds are always shaped just like you
EmFmG
But there's a parting light...
=Chorus=
D
I always told you that someday
G
I would be packing my bags and I would be on my way,
D
You always laughed in my face,
And made the world seem so grey,
G
Lay in the bed that you made
D
So I can finally say that I'm fine,
You can just say "whatever,"
G
I won't change my mind 'cuz I know that I'm better off,
D
But I am cursed with a staircase wit,
GBm
Always find the words when it's too late to let them slip
=Bridge 1=
BmD
Don't judge me on my bad habits,
BmGD
I could pick out every flaw of yours,
G
And unearth all your imperfections.
BmGBm
Beneath the surface I have seen,
BmGD
The ugly truth behind the beauty queen...
=Chorus=
D
I always told you that someday
G
I would be packing my bags and I would be on my way,
D
You always laughed in my face,
And made the world seem so grey,
G
Lay in the bed that you made
D
So I can finally say that I'm fine,
You can just say "whatever,"
G
I won't change my mind 'cuz I know that I'm better off,
D
But I am cursed with a staircase wit,
GBm
Always find the words when it's too late to let them slip
=Bridge 2=
DADD
Held it back,
Lost the nerve,
GD
Was too scared to talk when you gave me your hand
G
And you gave me your heart,
DAG
When you should have kept it to yourself
DAG
You should have kept it to yourself,
DGAG
I wish you'd kept it to yourself
