verse 1
Gm A
When I left I thought I would be stronger
Dm
But in fact, it took away my energy
Gm A
Hard to tell you that I could not really see
Dm
Beyond the gates of this purgatory
Gm A
I am so tainted now, I cannot wash you off
Dm
The memories still don't seem to fade
Gm A
When I left, did you even wash your tears?
Bb A
'Cause mine have been dryin' for days
Gm A
Somethin' in the way
Dm
Why am I cryin' for you, babe?
Gm A
Can't stand the rain
Dm
Time to move on anyway
Post-Chorus
Gm A
Don't ask me why
Dm
It's done
Gm A
So long, goodbye
Dm
I'm gone
Refrain
Gm A
'Cause only sun in the summer lasts
Dm
No holdin' on and no lookin' back
Gm A
Even the sun doesn't seem to last
Dm
It don't hold on, it's not comin' back
verse 2
Gm A
If I kept a hold a little longer
Dm
I would never think I'd ever get away
Gm A
Don't want to say I tried to keep ya
Dm
Say love is blind, I couldn't see you change, no
Gm A
Don't wanna find myself back in that place
Dm
I have wasted all my tears on fools
Gm A
There was no help for me, no savin' grace
Dm
I had been tryin' for days
Gm A
There was somethin' in the way
Dm
Why am I cryin' for you, babe?
Gm A
No I can't stand the rain
Dm
Time to move on anyway
Post-Chorus
Gm A
Don't ask me why
Dm
It's done
Gm A
So long, goodbye
Dm
I'm gone
Refrain

'Cause only sun in the summer lasts
Dm
No holdin' on and no lookin' back
Gm A
Even the sun doesn't seem to last
Dm
It don't hold on, it's not comin' back
