Houston Were Going Down

C                                  G
 Why is it that you always take it out on me?
      Am                         N.C.
Is it what you need to make your life complete?


[Instrumental]

C G Am F


[Verse 1]

   C
He said, “Houston, we’re going down.”
      G
As he took his last step out of town
    Am
His faded dreams and memories
     F
Were nothing more than lies I digress
C                 G
 Have you seen my alter world of make believe?
   Am                            F                  C
It always just convinces me that everyone will disappear


[Chorus]

                                  G
Why is it that you always take it out on me?
      Am                         F
Is it what you need to make your life complete?
C                                  G
 Why is it that you always take it out on me?
        Am
One day you will see
         F
That the rest is history.


[Verse 2]

C
 Open eyes and fragile minds
G                                  Am
 Never seemed to hold me back till now.

Should I stay or should I go?
     F
I’ll never seem to know
                      C
Or I could give it up now

And I’ll see

I never should have left you
G
Because of me,

I’ll second guess my virtue
Am
You were the one
                             F
I wish that I could hold you near

But I’m too late


[Pre-Chorus]

C
 You said you needed time
G
 Too bad my watch is broken
Am
 Our lives fell out of line
    F
I’m breaking down


[Chorus]

C                                  G
 Why is it that you always take it out on me?
      Am                         F
Is it what you need to make your life complete?
C                                  G
 Why is it that you always take it out on me?
        Am
One day you will see
         F
That the rest is history.


[Bridge]

C                     G
 Those nights that we shared,

Your eyes lit up the heavens.
Am              F
 And when I was scared,

My cheeks were sore from smilin’
C             G
 And I was unaware
                                Am
But you have helped me catch my breath
                      F
She whispers that you haven’t seen nothing yet


[Chorus]

            C
(So tell me why)
                                  G
Why is it that you always take it out on me?
      Am                         F
Is it what you need to make your life complete?
C                                  G
 Why is it that you always take it out on me?
        Am
One day you will see
         F
That the rest is history.

C                                  G
 Why is it that you always take it out on me?
      Am                         F
Is it what you need to make your life complete?
