Verse: 

C      G                   Am      F 
 The drought was the very worst 
C           G                      Am               F 
 When the flowers that we'd grown together died of thirst 
C         G                             Am       F 
 It was months and months of back and forth 
C                 G               Am                         F 
 You're still all over me like a wine-stained suit I can't wear anymore 


Pre-Chorus 

  G                  F                 G                          F 
 Hung my head, as I lost the war, and sky turned to black like a perfect storm 


  C          G      Am  
 Rain came pouring down when I was drowning 
   F                            C 
 That's when I could finally breathe 
         G        Am                        F                      C       
 And by morning, gone was any trace of you, I think I am finally clean 

C   G/B  C  G/B  C  G/B  F 


Verse: 

C           G              Am      F 
 There was nothing left to do 
C          G                     Am      F 
 When the butterflies turned to dust covering my room 
C       G                    Am      F 
 So I punched a hole in the roof 
C         G                   Am            F 
 Let the flood carry away all my pictures of you 


 Pre-Chorus 

      G                F                   G               F 
 The water filled my lungs, I screamed so loud but nobody heard a thing 

 

  C          G      Am  
 Rain came pouring down when I was drowning 
   F                            C 
 That's when I could finally breathe 
         G        Am                        F                            
 And by morning, gone was any trace of you, I think I am finally clean 


 Bridge: 

  Am       G/B       Am    F   Am F 
 10 months sober, I must admit  
  Am                 G/B                  Am    F       Am F 
 Just because you're clean don't mean you don't miss it 
  Am       G/B       C    
 10 months older I won't give in 
               F 
 Now that I'm clean I'm never gonna risk it 

 Now I'm never gonna risk it 



  C          G      Am  
 Rain came pouring down when I was drowning 
   F                            C 
 That's when I could finally breathe 
         G        Am                        F                            
 And by morning, gone was any trace of you, I think I am finally clean 

  C        G      Am  
 It came pouring down when I was drowning 
   F                            C 
 That's when I could finally breathe 
         G        Am                        F                            
 And by morning, gone was any trace of you, gone was any trace of you 
C   G 
    Ah.. 
Am                  F 
Gone was any trace, gone was any trace, 
C   G 
      Ah.. 
Am                  F 
Gone was any trace, gone was any trace, 
C   G 
Ah..      Ah.. 
Am                        F 
Gone was any trace of you, gone was any trace of you, 
C   G 
      Ah.. 
Am                  F 

C G Am F
