[Intro] E E D D/G# Bm C#m D D [Verse 1]
A      E           D           D/G#                                          
  I guess I'll always stop and see you,

        Bm                 C#m  D                                              
  and we'll run into each other's lives.

A          E                 D              D/G#      Bm                     
  Yeah, I guess, although it tears me up inside every time.

       C#m             D                                                      
  It burns my eyes with tears.
[Pre-Chorus]
E        C#m                   B    A                                         
  But I know you're worth the pain.

                   E       C#m          B     A                                  
  I've so much more to gain by waiting for you.
[Chorus]
C#m                                  E                                      
  You're going away, but you're not going far.

         A             B                   E                                 
  So if he decides to leave you alone and crying.

           A                                                                    
  You know I'm still here.

       B                                                                    
  The faithful one.

  Waiting for a message from Kathlene.

        A       C#m        E Esus4 E  B       C#m               A  
  Then I'll come... faster...          than I ever thought that I could run.

C#m         E Esus4 E  B             C#m         A                                E       A       
  Because I...           i need you more than I ever thought that I could need someone, yeah.

   C#m         B    A                                                             
  Someone, someone else.

                        E        A                                           
  That I could need someone else.

     C#m B A                                                                           
  Someone else.

  I know I will always stop and see you

        Bm                  C#m     D                                            
  and we'll run into each other's fucked up lives.

A           E                 D            D/G#        Bm

  It burns my eyes with tears.
[Chorus]
C#m                                    E    
  But you're waking up is the start of my lost cause.

           A              B                  E                               
  And then you decide to leave me alone and crying.

                 A                                                          
  But you know I'm still here.

  The faithful one.
