Verse
C G
Well, It doesn't really matter if you lead or follow
Dm Fm
Everybody's laughing like there's no tomorrow
C G Fm
And even if there was, would you still go following your friends?
C G
I don't know where we went wrong,
Dm Fm
We're still singing those same sad songs
C G Fm
"It's my life, not your life, I'll end it when I want"
Pre-Chorus
C G
And now I'm off to save the world once again
Dm Fm
But I don't know how I'll pull it off this time
C G Fm
I think I'm going to drown
C G
Now he's off to save the world once again
Dm Fm
But he don't know how he'll pull it off this time
C G Fm
I just know I'm going to drown

Chorus
C G
And it's the saddest song you'll ever hear
Dm Fm
The most pain you will ever feel
C G Fm
But you grit your teeth because it don't get better than this (know this)
C G Dm Fm
And you'll try to explain as the blood leaves all your veins
C G Fm
And you can't think of anything that you would change

Verse
Stop!
C G
"Look and you will see" is what I think she said to me
Dm Fm
I'm not too sure because it could have easily
C G
Been a million things but I don't know what she said
Fm
I still don't know what she said
C G Dm Fm
It's been years since I've seen her face, 14 years were just erased
C G Fm
If my life was your life, would you ever take it back?
Pre-Chorus
C G
And now I'm off to save the world once again
Dm Fm
But I don't know how I'll pull it off this time
C G Fm
I think I'm going to drown
C G
Now he's off to save the world once again
Dm Fm
But he don't know how he'll pull it off this time
C G Fm
I just know I'm going to drown
