Intro:F G F Am 

verse 1 
  F 
Sitting in depression 
Always calling me irreverent 
If I prayed the weight would lessen 
But your mouth can do it better 
          Am       G  
Than some god who don't speak 
F 
Fucking up my language 
Mixing words but never fading 
If you stay you'll say you saved me 
                 C   F 
You can take it all away 
         Am         G        F     G 
When you leave I'll feel the same, hey 

Pre-Chorus 
Am           C           G 
I don't mind you leaving when the damage is done 
F     Am    C                          G 
And I don't mind, I feel the same when you're gone 

       F 
'Cause what you lost, what you lost 
                      C  
I don't wanna be here anymore, anymore 
           F 
There's no difference here from when you're gone, when you're gone 
                       Am            G 
I'm not crawling on my knees to keep you here 
F 
'Cause what you lost, what you lost 
                      C 
I don't wanna be here anymore, anymore 
                      F   
There's no difference here from when you're gone, when you're gone 
                       Am 
I'm not crawling on my knees to keep you here 

verse 2 
             F 
Baby take me back to New York City 
Where the stars don't ever see me 
I can hide under the scenery of a saturated sky 
Share some conjugated meaning 
          Am                   F 
Watch the light drip down your face 
                C                   F     G  
And when you'll leave I'll feel the same, ohh 

Pre-Chorus 
F Am    C                G  
I don't mind you leaving when the damage is done 
F     Am         C                               G 
And I don't mind how I feel the same when you're gone
