Verse 1:
GA
Never thought I'd be in this place
BmD
It's someone else's life I'm living
EmGD
Wish I were living a lie
GA
The hardest part is when the bough breaks
BmD
Falling down and then forgiving
EmGEm
You didn't kiss me good-bye
GADG
I'm choking on the words I didn't get to say
GA
And pray I get the chance one day
CHORUS:
DEmGAD
I still run, I still swing open the door
EmGAD
I still think you'll be there like before
Em
Doesn't everybody out there

Know to never come 'round
EmG
Some things a heart won't listen to

I'm still holding out for you yeah, yeah, ah

GA
I can hear you smile in the dark
BmD
I can even feel your breathing
EmGAD
But daylight chases the ghosts (chases the ghosts)
GA
I see your coat and I fall apart
BmD
To those hints of you I'm clinging

Now's when I need them most

I should get up, dry my eyes and move ahead
GA
At least that's what you would have said Oh whoa oh
