Introduction: Am F C G (x2)
(Verse)
Am
Funny how the little things
F
Can stake a claim in memory
C G
And cheat time to last a hundred years
Am
I swore that Iâ ' 'd be strong enough
F
To drop my heart and pick it up
C G
And make the great escape without a tear
Am F
Iâ ' 'm so naive
F Am Em
And I â â hold my breath a little too long
F Am G
And you â were quick to carry on
F Am Em
And Iâ ' 'm â learning in the afterglow
Dm
Itâ ' 's a long way
F Am
A long way to letting go
(Interlude) Am F C G (4 beats each)
(Verse)
Am
Waiting on eventually
F
Where youâ ' 'll become my history
C G
And Iâ ' 'll begin to rebuild the walls
Am
And Iâ ' 'll forget to mention you
F
Or wish that you were lonely too
C G
Never ache, missing your calls
Am F
Iâ ' 'm so naive
F Am Em
And I â â hold my breath a little too long
F Am G
And you â were quick to carry on
F Am Em
And Iâ ' 'm â learning in the afterglow
Dm
Itâ ' 's a long way
F Am
A long way to letting go
F
Was looking easier ideally
Am C
And I falter at my hesitationâ ' 's end
F Dm
Close my eyes as I begin the countdown,
Am
Reach for breath, Iâ ' 'm counting down
E
But I hesitate at ten.
F Am Em
And I â â hold my breath a little too long
F Am G
And you â were quick to carry on
F Am Em
And Iâ ' 'm â learning in the afterglow
Dm
Itâ ' 's a long way
F
A long way to letting go
Am Em F G F Am Em
Oooâ Oooâ letting goâ ooo
Dm F
hmmm â
