Curbside Goodbye

             C#m
You've buried me here
            D#m         C#m
And I can't turn off my eyes, only 
sinking
       D#m        C#m
You've hidden the keys to sleep
     D#m          C#m
The sweet careful lines we've 
crossed
           D#m
And now we never can go back

[Verse 1]
C#m                  F#
This is what I felt, just being 
myself
    B                           
But I know that you wouldn't 
G#m G#m7
stay
C#m               F#
Standing at my car with my reasons 
spent
     B                          
As you drove and made your 
G#m G#m7
escape
C#m                     F#
The silence crushing me, like I 
swore it would
    G#m
And I'm left watching...

[Chorus 1]
B                E
Red lights fading out

(I refuse to accept these excuses 
you're making)
   G#m                     C#m
As you drive back to your house

(To save yourself from taking blame 
the only reason that you came at 
all)
C#m                          D#m
I'm here sinking and now we never 
can go back

[Verse 2]
C#m               F#             
I chose every word that I knew 
               B              
would hurt but that was a poor 
          G#m
choice at best

C#m               F#             
This weak disguise, your careless
               B                G#m
 replies that you made at my expense
C#m                     F#
You swore this was right
                           G#m
It was better that you're leaving 
but I'm here with...

[Chorus 2]
B                E
Red lights fading out

(I refuse to accept these excuses 
you're making)
   G#m                     C#m
As you drive back to your house

(To save yourself from taking blame 
the only reason that you came at 
all)
    B                        
And I'm here with my curbside 
      E
goodbye
                 G#m
This sting in my eyes won't leave me
 tonight
            C#m
As I stay awake to watch the day 
start without you

[Bridge 1]
C#m                           D#m
I'm here sinking, now we can 
      C#m
never go back
                D#m          C#m
My foundation crippled and cracked
                  D#m          C#m
Broken, severed, bleed out the hurt
               D#m        C#m
Two people dissolve into words
                  D#m          C#m
Broken, severed, bleed out the hurt
               D#m        C#m
Two people dissolve into words

[Chorus 3]
B                E
Red lights fading out
   G#m                     C#m
As you drive back to your house

[Bridge 2]
     C#m
The way I've gone a hundred times
   D#m
Before but now I'm left behind
    B                     E
So make all of this make sense
     C#m
And now your voice is haunting me
      D#m
Just out of reach it buries me
    B                          
Is this the better off that you 
    E
meant?

[Bridge 3]
     C#m
The way I've gone a hundred times
   D#m
Before but now I'm left behind
    B                     E
So make all of this make sense
     C#m
And now your voice is haunting me
      D#m
Just out of reach it buries me

It buries me, it buries me, it 
buries me, it buries me

C#m                       D#m    
I'm here sinking, we never can go
     C#m
 back
C#m                       D#m    
I'm here sinking, we never can go
     C#m
 back
C#m                       D#m    
I'm here sinking, we never can go

 back

I'm here sinking, we never can go 
back
