C#m A2
A summer drive away from dying
C#m A2
a broken heart nothing to lose.
C#m A2
I know it hurts so bad just trying
C#m A2
to please the ones you hate to love.
F#m A2 C#m B
And I wrote this note about someone I used to know
F#m A2
so I'd remember how life can be so short
C#m
when your left alone to wonder
E
how it is someone opens and shuts the door.
E/Eb A2
I know your cold but come home.
C#m B A2
It's a shame how short we all have come.
C#m A2
C#m A2
C#m A2
You set your mind on cruise control
C#m A2
knuckles grip the wheel in fear to let it go.
F#m A2
Love is empty,love is cruel,
C#m
love it blindly breaks the rules.
B
How could you have been a fool?
F#m
It's something all of us go through.
A2
You choke back tears and swallow lies
C#m
but those wiper blades won't fix your eyes,
B E
count on having clouded vision for at least a little while.
E/Eb A2
And I know you're cold but come home
C#m B A2 E
it's a shame how short we all have come.
E/Eb A2
And I know you're cold but come home.
C#m B A2
Please don't face the headlights of the oncoming cars alone
C#m A2 E B
We wont forget the past.
C#m A2 E B
We wont forget the past. (And I know you're cold)
E A2
Say all the answers and I will let you go
I wont look back
C#m
and I wont look back.
B
Say all the answers
A2
and I will let you go.
I will let you go.
E
I will let you go
A2
Say all the answers and I will let you go
I won't look back
C#m
I won't look back
B A2
Say all the answers and I will let you go
I will let you go
E
I will let you go.
Please don't face the headlights of the oncoming cars alone
and I will let you go
