Intro: Em G D C D x2

Verse:
Em
 Always in a rush
  G
Never stay on the phone long enough
   D                    C D
Why am I so self-important?
Em
 Said Iʼd see you soon
      G
But that was, oh, maybe a year ago
 D                               C D
Didnʼt know time was of the essence

Em
 So many questions
G                      D
 But Iʼm talking to myself
                              C
I know that you canʼt hear me anymore
    D
Not anymore
Em
 So much to tell you
G                    D
 And most of all goodbye
                                  C
But I know that you canʼt hear me anymore

Chorus:
D        Em
Itʼs so loud,
    G
inside my head
       D
With words that I,
        C
should have said
D      Em
As I drown,
     G
in my regrets
     D
I canʼt take back,
      C       D     Em
the words I never said
          G
I never said
     D
I canʼt take back,
      C       D     Em
the words I never said

Verse:
Em
 Always talking shit
  G                               D
Took your advice and did the opposite
                         C       D
Just being young and stupid, and I...
Em                                            G
 I havenʼt been all that you couldʼve hoped for
                                    D
But if youʼd held on a little longer
                                    C        D
Youʼd have had more reasons to be proud, and I...

Em
 So many questions
G                      D
 But Iʼm talking to myself
                              C
I know that you canʼt hear me anymore
    D
Not anymore
Em
 So much to tell you
G                    D
 And most of all goodbye
                                  C
But I know that you canʼt hear me anymore

Chorus:
D        Em
Itʼs so loud,
    G
inside my head
       D
With words that I,
        C
should have said
D      Em
As I drown,
     G
in my regrets
     D
I canʼt take back,
      C
the words...

Bridge:
    D         Em
The longer I stand here,
                G
the louder the silence
                    D
I know that youʼre gone,
                             C
but sometimes I swear that I hear
     D               Em
Your voice when the wind blows,
                   G
so I talk to the shadows
                     D
Hoping you might be listening
                     C
cosʼ I want you to know

Chorus:
D        Em
Itʼs so loud,
    G
inside my head
       D
With words that I,
        C
should have said
D      Em
As I drown,
     G
in my regrets

     D
I canʼt take back,
      C       D     Em
the words I never said
          G
I never said
     D
I canʼt take back,
      C       D     Em           G
the words I never said, I never said
   D
I canʼt take back,
    C             G
the words I never said...
