What makes you say the thing that you say 
G    D   Em  C  G  D       G 
What did I   do so wrong today 
G     D     Em    C      G  D      G   
Where d'you learn how to cut me so deep 
G      D Em  C          G  D          G     
When'd I let you get so far away from me 
 
      C            C/B             Am            C/B      G   
And I know that we stood there and promised each other forever 
C               C/B          Am           C/B          D   
God knows we've tried for so long now and nothing gets better 
 
Solo 
 
 
Loving you is all that I have ever known 
But the truth hits and I know we'd be better off alone 
 
Chorus 
 
Stand here in the silence that remains 
Loving you still does not change a thing
