F#m Fm
Fight these eyes
F#m Fm (break)
They're drawing you, inside.
Verse 1:
F#m
Sign the name in marker,
D
Watch the clouds as they got darker.
E D E (Fm)
Felt it start to slip away.
F#m
All the schemes were made and plotted,
A
All the rules have been forgotten now.
E D E
I made it by the skin of my teeth again this time.
Refrain:
F#m A
I'm waiting, still waiting,
D
To get away and make a change,
A E/G#m
Seasons last forever in this phase.
Chorus:
F#m (break) D
Forget your heart.
A
It's weighing you down inside,
E
As you confide your life to someone else.
E-Fm-F#m D
Maybe we're scared to be alone,
A
We're not prepared to throw the stones,
E D
And watch them drift out of our control.
Verse 2:
F#m
I braced my body for the
D
sudden impact that was more than I
E D E (Fm)
ever thought that it would be.
F#m
And when it knocked me over,
A E
I've never felt more stiff than sober now.
D E/Fm
I'm struggling to get up and run away.
Refrain 2:
F#m A
I've wasted, I've wasted
D
my life away. I've gotta change,
A E/G#m
I've gotta burn the book and turn the page.
Chorus:
F#m (break) D
Forget your heart.
A
It's weighing you down inside,
E
As you confide your life to someone else.
E-Fm-F#m D
Maybe we're scared to be alone,
A
We're not prepared to throw the stones,
E D
And watch them drift out of our control.
Post-chorus:
D
There's no return,
E F#m
To what you had when you started,
A Bm
Before you lost control.
D
You will never recover.
