=Verse 1=
D
The feeling starts to sink in,
D5E5D5C#5D5
But it's beginning to rust,
GBm
Still hanging onto the things that we discussed,
AG
But the point that was made isn't said and done...
D
Now the sun shines so bright, but it won't shine for you,
G
You remind me of rain in July
Bm
And the gloom that I felt for a year,
AG
And the clouds are always shaped just like you
EmF#mG
But there's a parting light...
=Chorus=
D
I always told you that someday
G
I would be packing my bags and I would be on my way,
D
You always laughed in my face,
And made the world seem so grey,
G
Lay in the bed that you made
D
So I can finally say that I'm fine,
You can just say "whatever,"
G
I won't change my mind 'cuz I know that I'm better off,
D
But I am cursed with a staircase wit,
GBm
Always find the words when it's too late to let them slip
=Bridge 1=
BmD
Don't judge me on my bad habits,
BmGD
I could pick out every flaw of yours,
G
And unearth all your imperfections.
BmGBm
Beneath the surface I have seen,
BmGD
The ugly truth behind the beauty queen...
=Chorus=
D
I always told you that someday
G
I would be packing my bags and I would be on my way,
D
You always laughed in my face,
And made the world seem so grey,
G
Lay in the bed that you made
D
So I can finally say that I'm fine,
You can just say "whatever,"
G
I won't change my mind 'cuz I know that I'm better off,
D
But I am cursed with a staircase wit,
GBm
Always find the words when it's too late to let them slip
=Bridge 2=
DADD
Held it back,
Lost the nerve,
GD
Was too scared to talk when you gave me your hand
G
And you gave me your heart,
DAG
When you should have kept it to yourself
DAG
You should have kept it to yourself,
DGAG
I wish you'd kept it to yourself
