Tears

C


[Verse 1]
                      C            
We went down with the flames of 
       Em                 F
love that flies like a cannonball
            C                      
You took me higher when all that 
  Em             F
was left to do was fall
       C
Purple hearts love, you roll your 
eyes
            Em                     
Sent with a kiss 'til you awkwardly
 F
 sigh
               C
I wish I could build a time machine
      Em          F
Lying next to you just a little 
longer


[Pre-Chorus]
C                      G
Ooh, around and around tears come 
falling down


[Chorus]
C
 I kept your photo in my dresser 
drawer
Em                         F
 Put on a t-shirt that was left 
laying on the floor
C
 Re-read a letter that you wrote 
before
        Em                      
You are no longer around and the 
 F
tears come falling down


[Verse 2]
                         C
Felt like a punch in the gut
                   Em              
It's tough when it catches you off 
F
guard
             C                   
A word like "forever" is a scary 
Em
thought
                       F
That's why it hurts so hard

C
I pulled my car into a parking lot

I turn the key and left the 
headlights on
Em                                
Listened to the windshield wipers 
      F
going back and forth
      C
But I can't help it if I get 
distracted

See, my mind wanders to a re-enacted
Em                                
Living in a different universe 
    F
'til I opened up the door


[Pre-Chorus]
C                      G
Ooh, around and around tears come 
falling down


[Chorus]
C
 I kept your photo in my dresser 
drawer (Ooh)
Em                         F
 Put on a t-shirt that was left 
laying on the floor
C
 Re-read a letter that you wrote 
before
        Em
You are no longer around
F
Tears come falling down
C
 It only lasted for a second in time
Em                                
 These are the memories that I've 
F
memorized
      C
I can see you, I can see you when I 
open my eyes
        Em            F
You're around and the tears come 
falling down

[Bridge]
        C     Am
Falling down
        Em   F
Falling down (Tears come falling 
down)
        C     Am
Falling down (Fallin', fallin', I'm 
falling)
      Em
Lying next to you
F
Tears come falling down
        C     Am
Falling down
        Em   F
Falling down (Tears come falling 
down)
        C     Am
Falling down (Fallin', fallin', I'm 
falling)
      Em
Lying next to you
F
Just a little longer


[Chorus]
C
 I kept your photo in my dresser 
drawer (Ooh)
Em                         F
 Put on a t-shirt that was left 
laying on the floor
C
 Re-read a letter that you wrote 
before
        Em
You are no longer around
F
Tears come falling down
C
 It only lasted for a second in time
Em                                
 These are the memories that I've 
F
memorized
      C
I can see you, I can see you when I 
open my eyes
        Em            F
You're around and the tears come 
falling down
