Capo 2
C#m
C#m
Holding high your little head
F#m
Walking backwards in his steps
E A
Nobody knows you're dead
C#m
Lifeless heartbeat in your chest
F#m A B
Waiting the day you can rest
C#m
Take it from someone who sees
F#m
Both sides of the story
E A
In the end I'm trying to break you
C#m
So much that I know you need
F#m A
How did you wake from your sleep?
E A
And I just had to tell you
C#m B
I tried and tried
E A C#m B
But times goes by and now I hold my tears inside
A
C#m
Boy you got that sparkle eye
F#m
One I'd hope and pray I'd find
E A
So much for loving you madly
C#m
Wonder which way you will go
F#m A
Dragging my heart along with you
E A
And I just had to tell you
C#m B
I tried and tried
E A C#m B
But times goes by and now I hold my tears inside
F#m B
And I want to know
F#m B
If I should go
F#m B A
And I want to know
And I just had to tell you
I tried and tried
But times goes by and now I hold my tears inside
And I just had to tell you
I tried and I tried
But times goes by and now I hold my tears inside
(end on these)
A, E, A, E
