[Verse]
C G/B F
Pain is growing like a vine stranglin' my heart
C G/B F
When I think the worst is over that's right when it starts
Am F
Someone says your name, sometimes I don't feel a thing
Am F
But then there's days like today, whoa, that are suffocatin'
[Chorus]
C G Am
When I think it's dead and gone, then it starts to rain
F G
Oh, and it grows again
C G
I find myself out in your driveway
Am F
My hands are frozen on the wheel and I can feel your love still suffocatin'
[Instrumental]

[Verse]
C G F
The memory of what used to be cuts me like a thorn
C G F
Loneliness starts rollin' in like thunder from a storm
Am F
My strength starts to sway, I feel the winds of change
Am F
It's such a paralyzing place, oh, and it's suffocatin'
[Chorus]
C G Am
When I think it's dead and gone, then it starts to rain
F G
Oh, and it grows again
C G
I find myself out in your driveway
Am F Am
My hands are frozen on the wheel and I can feel your love still suffocat- in'
F
Let the rain wash it all away, can't you love me another day?
Am F G
Oh, I curse myself, 'cause nothin's changed, nothin's changed
[Chorus]
C G/B Am
When I think it's dead and gone, then it starts to rain
F G
Oh, and it grows again
C G
I find myself out in your driveway
Am F
My hands are frozen on the wheel and I can feel your love still?c suffocatin'
