A 
Don't leave me in this room  
F#m 
The walls are closing in  
Bm 
This is the space I used to say  
D            E 
The line is drawn for you each day 

A 
But every day you show  
F#m 
With sound of caving walls  
Bm 
Some day this song will have no pulse  
D        E 
And I'll cave alone 

D 
But there we are  
E 
Waiting for your answer  
A 
Your arms speeded elation  
F#m 
Beating out your salvation  
Bm                                 E       
But when the tape stopped you were gone 
                    A 
A half measure from home  
E     D 
home, home...               

A F#m Bm D E  

A 
This week I recreate  
F#m 
Edit you back into  
Bm 
The blare that could define you  
D             E 
Coveted by few who knew 

A 
The phone rings without pause  
F#m 
This grief wills everyone  
Bm 
All I have is our shitty song  
D                 E 
How could it ever be enough? 

D              E 
Here we are in our final accord  
A 
A mortician and his tools  
F#m 
Sonically bury you  
Bm                           E 
You could have chose another chord  
           A   E   D 
to resolve on, on, on....
