VERSE 1 

C                            F                      C 
I can't believe that so much time was spent on my own 
               F                    Am 
Just tryin' to figure it out all alone 
                 G            C      F 
Don't show emotion, let this go 

C                       F                C 
I can pretend that everything is still okay 
            F                        Am 
Until you rightfully say what you said 
              G                   F      G 
The night you left me here for dead, for dead 

PRE-CHORUS
 
F                                    
Why do you cry when you're falling asleep? 
         C                        G 
And girl, how can you love without you ever losing it all 
F                                     G 
Don't put your faith in this, when you won't believe it 


               C 
Where did you go? 
             F                          Am               G 
How will you find yourself, when your hand to hold is letting go? 
              C 
Where did you go? 
             F                       Am           G 
How will you tell yourself, you're losing hope, losing hope?

VERSE 2:
 
           C              F                    C 
Is it just me or has the time we spent come undone 
         F                      Am 
I know forever is not what you want 
             G                  F            G 
I'll pack my bags and brush it off, brush it off 

PRE-CHORUS
 
F                                    
Why do you cry when you're falling asleep? 
         C                        G 
And girl, how can you love without you ever losing it all 
F                                     G 
Don't put your faith in this, when you won't believe it 


               C 
Where did you go? 
             F                          Am               G 
How will you find yourself, when your hand to hold is letting go? 
              C 
Where did you go? 
             F                       Am          G 

BRIDGE;
 
C 
Yeah, like I really care 

Why do we fight sometimes 
G 
Just like we always do 

Try and make up your mind 
Am 
I'll make it up for you 
                    F 
Try and make up your mind 
F               G 
Your, mind, your mind

Where did you go? 
             F                          Am               G 
How will you find yourself, when your hand to hold is letting go? 
              C 
Where did you go? 
             F                       Am           G 
How will you tell yourself, you're losing hope, losing hope?
