        C              D    Am C Em 
I ain't living here no more 
        C              D    Am C Em 
I ain't even keeping score 
         C                    D     Am C Em 
It's too late to change, it's over 
                  C      D      Am C D 
I'm drowning in a sea of tears 
  
  
                     Em 
Nothing I can say to you 
C 
Makes any difference 
            D             Em 
There ain't nothing I can do 
C                   Am 
None of it's making sense
