Intro: C 

C 
You pulled me in when it was light 
             F                   E 
Amongst the grass we shared our lives 
               G                  Am 
And though I'm thrown, at least I know 
F                 G          C 
   I want more complicated days 
C 
Why should this stop before it starts? 
         F                 E 
I want to give us our best chance 
           G                   Am 
If it goes wrong, we will move on 
F                   G           C 
   But first, more complicated days 

C                Em                    F             C 
This won’t be the first time that I've thrown myself away 
C                Em                 G 
This won’t be the first time that I fall 
C                 E7               F            Fm 
This won’t be the first time I put someone in my way 
           Dm                G            C 
But simple things no longer interest me at all 

C 
And I am lost, and I am torn 
           F         E 
And somehow I’m still comfortable 
           G                Am 
So I won’t quit or question this 
F                G           C 
   Without more complicated days 
C 
You are unsure, but so am I 
            F                 E 
You know we share that clouded sky 
            G              Am 
And I won’t go, I hope you know 
F                 G            C 
   I’ll bring more complicated days 

C                Em                    F             C 
This won’t be the first time that I've thrown myself away 
C                Em                 G 
This won’t be the first time that I fall 
C                 E7               F            Fm 
This won’t be the first time I put someone in my way 
           Dm                G            C 
But simple things no longer interest me at all 

C                Em                    F             C 
This won’t be the first time that I've thrown myself away 
C                Em                 G 
This won’t be the first time that I fall 
C                 E7               F            Fm 
This won’t be the first time I put someone in my way 
           Dm                G            E7 
But simple things no longer interest me at all 
           Dm                G            C 
But simple things no longer interest me at all
