Intro: GGAmG
Verse:
G
Oh, Monday morning waking up still too numb to speak
AmG
Another night just staring at the wall.
G
Last nightʼs conversation knocked me off my feet
AmG
guess today Iʼll fall
EmC
I wish that we could find the words to look the other way
GD
Be careful of the things we do and watch the things we say
EmC
And maybe then weʼd get somewhere weʼd never been before
GD
But whatʼs the use in fighting when you know youʼve lost the war.
Verse:
Walk the streets in New Orleans, shirt soaked to my skin
Through the mess of yesterdayʼs parade.
Thousand times a day I think of calling you again
Come to my senses instead.
And every time we walk away we lose a little time
Pretending to each other now that everything is fine.
I know whatever lies I use to get myself to sleep
I wake up to the promises I know we couldnʼt keep.
Chorus:
GD
Say you donʼt see whatʼs wrong
EmC
Every night lasting oh so long,
GDGCD
And I know, I do, youʼre already gone.
Bridge:
EmCGDEmCGDBmEm
I wonder should I get up, would but whatʼs the point?
CDGD
Oh once somethingʼs gone itʼs gone for good.
EmBGA
Maybe I could look away back to where we used to be,
AmD
One more time I wish I could.
Verse:
Oh, nevermind the reasons that tore us all apart
Weʼve both done things I know we canʼt defend.
Whatʼs the use in tracing it all back to the start
THereʼs something missing in the end.
I wish that we could find the words to look the other way
Be careful of the things we do and everything we say
And maybe then weʼd get somewhere weʼd never been before
But whatʼs the use in fighting when you know youʼve lost the war.
Chorus:
GD
Say you donʼt see whatʼs wrong
EmC
Every night lasting oh so long,
GDEmC
And I know, I do, youʼre already gone.
GDGCDG
Oh I know, I do, youʼre already gone.
