  			Ebm          B      
Here we are, seven days 
     Db 
And seven nights of empty tries 
     Ebm      B 
It's rituals, habitual 
          Db 
But it's never gonna work this time 




      G#m             B 
We're to the point of no return  
      F#                                   Db 
And along the way the only thing we're learned 
   B               Db 
Is how to hurt each other 





    Ebm              B 
I'm looking back and wondering why  
   Db 
It took so long to realize 
     Ebm                   B 
That nothing's changed, it never will 
 Db 
All these years of standing still 
      G#m             B    
And still we stay, in all this pain 
     F#                            Db 
And nothing's going to make it go away 





 
Ebm                    B 
I don't want to wait another minute 
F#                     Db 
Put me out of my misery 
 Ebm                       B 
I can read your mind baby you're not in it 
    F#                          Db 
And we're not what we used to be 
         B               F# 
No you wouldn't have to lie to me 
       Ebm               Db 
If you would only let me go 
    Ebm                    B               Db 
And I don't want to wait another minute to hear 
 



                           Ebm 
Something that I already know 
    B               Db 
I know, I know, I know 
                           Ebm 
Something that I already know 
    B               Db 
I know, I know, I know 




   Ebm 
So save your voice 
      B 
Don't waste your breath 
  Db 
Can't you see we're at the end ? 
Ebm                B 
This goodbye, it's permanent 
    Db 
So wish me well and try to forget 




G#m 
All the fights 
    B 
And all the ways 
    F#                          Db 
We almost made it but we never did 
    B                      Db 
And finally it's come to this 






 
Ebm                    B 
I don't want to wait another minute 
F#                     Db 
Put me out of my misery 
 Ebm                       B 
I can read your mind baby you're not in it 
    F#                          Db 
And we're not what we used to be 
         B               F# 
No you wouldn't have to lie to me 
       Ebm               Db 
If you would only let me go 
    Ebm                    B               Db 
And I don't want to wait another minute to hear 
 






                           D 
Something that I already know 
            B                  D 
We can not hide what we've become 
             B              D 
So sick and tired of being numb 
      B           Ebm B F# Db 
It's done, it's done,  
     Ebm  B F# Db 
It's done 






 
Fm                                 C#

G#                     Eb 
Put me out of my misery 
 Fm                        C# 
I can read your mind baby you're not in it 
    G#                          Eb 
And we're not what we used to be 
         C#              G# 
No you wouldn't have to lie to me 
       Fm                Eb 
If you would only let me go 
    Fm                     C#               Eb 
And I don't want to wait another minute to hear 
 




                           Fm 
Something that I already know 
   C#              Eb

Something that I already know 
    C#             Eb

                           Fm 
Something that I already know 
    C#             Eb 
I know, I know, I know 
    Fm C#       
I know        
          Eb 
Cause I know
