[1. DENIAL] [Verse]
C
  Forgive me, Peter

    C/B
My lost fearless leader

     Am7
In closets like cedar

    Gsus4                          Fmaj7
Preserved from when we were just kids

                   Gsus4    G
Is it something I did?

     C
The goddess of timing

      C/B
Once found us beguiling

     Am7
She said she was trying

   Gsus4
Peter, was she lying?

    Fmaj7                      Gsus4  G
My ribs get the feeling she did
[Chorus]
F               C
  This night is sparkling

G                F
Don't you let it go

            C
I'm wonderstruck

         G             F
Blushing all the way home

              C    G                F
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew

                     Am     G  F
I was enchanted to meet you-ou-ou
'Cause you said... [Verse]
Am  G    F
You look like Clara Bow

Am   G   F
In this light, remarkable

 Am  G    F
All your life, did you know

 Am    G   F
You'd be picked like a rose?
[Chorus]
    C
But I can see us lost in the memory

F                                     Dm
August slipped away into a moment in time

                     G
'Cause it was never mine

    C
And I can see us twistin' in bedsheets

F                                    Dm
August sipped away like a bottle of wine

                       G
'Cause you were never mine
[Interlude]
C                       F
  'Cause you were never mine

       Dm
Never mine

G
  Do you remember

         C
Remember when I pulled up and said:
[Chorus]
G                       Am
Please, I've been on my knees

                 F
Change the prophecy, don't want money

C                              G
Just someone who wants my company

               Am
Let it once be me

                 F
Who do I have to speak to

                  C
About if they can redo the prophecy?

Dm
I stayed there

                     C
Dust collected on my pinned-up hair

   G                    Dm
I'm sure that you got a wife out there

                            C
Kids and Christmas, but I'm unaware

                G
'Cause I'm right where

  Dm
I cause no harm, mind my business

       C                       G
If our love died young, I can't bear witness

         Dm
And it's been so long

                          C
But if you ever think you got it wrong

       G
I'm right where...
[Interlude]
                    C     Am
I remember it all too well

       F                              G
Just between us did the love affair maim you

      C    Am
All too well

       F                     G
Just between us, do you remember it

      C    Am
All too well

       F                G            C
Just between us, I remember it all too well...
[2. CONFUSION] [Interlude]
       F                G
Just between us, I still wonder...  How did it end?
Dm G Am F [Bridge]
Dm                      G
 Say it once again with feeling how the death rattle

 Am                                  F
 Breathing, silenced as the soul was leaving

                      Dm
 The deflation of our dreaming

                       G
 Leaving me bereft and reeling

                      Am
 My beloved ghost and me

              F
 Sitting in a tree

         F
 D-Y-I-N-G

C                                 G
 Your Midas touch on the Chevy door

                                  Am
November flush and your flannel cure
"This dorm was once a madhouse"
  F
I made a joke, "Well, it's made for me"

   C                        G
How evergreen, our group of friends

                                  Am
Don't think we'll say that word again

                                   F
And soon they'll have the nerve to deck the halls
That we once walked through
C
One for the money, two for the show

  G
I never was ready so I watch you go

    Am
Sometimes you just don't know the answer

     F
'Til someone's on their knees and asks you

     C
"She would've made such a lovely bride

       G
What a shame she's fucked in the head," they said

    Am
But you'll find the real thing instead

       F
She'll patch up your tapestry that I shred...

C
Oh my, love is a lie

F                                C
Shit my friends say to get me by

                 F
It hits different, it hits different this time

Am
Catastrophic blues

F                               Dm
Moving on was always easy for me to do

                  G
It hits different, it hits different 'cause it's you

C F   C
        'Cause it's you
C F C
                           G
My time, my wine, my spirit, my trust

                                      F
Tryna find a part of me you didn't take up

                                 G
Gave you too much but it wasn't enough

                                         C     G    Am  G
But I'll be alright, it's just a thousand cuts

    F
The burgundy on my T-shirt

         C
When you splashed your wine into me

            Am
And how the blood rushed into my cheeks

   G
So scarlet, it was maroon

    F
The mark they saw on my collarbonе

    C
The rust that grew between tеlephones

    Am
The lips I used to call "home"

   G                F                    C
So scarlet, it was blue, like I'd never known

                G
Missing him was dark grey, all alone

                   F                    C
Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody

          G
You never met

                   F
Cause loving him was red

      C          Am         G
                      red, re ee ed

             F
Burning REEEEED
C Am
   G                F
So scarlet, it was maroon
[Interlude]
                 C
I remember it all too well
Am F G [Chorus]
       C                         G
'Cause there we are again when I loved you so

Am                                F
Back before you lost the one real thing you've ever known

         C
It was rare, I was there

       G            Am   F
I remember it all too well
[Post-Chorus]
            C
Wind in my hair, you were there

         G
You remember it all

           Am
Down the stairs, you were there

      F
You remember it all

         C
It was rare, I was there

       G
I remember it all too-
[Chorus]
Am    F
Stop, you're losing me

G     C
Stop, you're losing me

Am    F
Stop, you're losing me

G
 I can't find a pulse

C
My heart won't start anymore

Am     F       G
  for   you

C
'Cause you're losing me
[3. ANGER] [Bridge]
        C
'Cause they see right through me

 C
They see right through me

 G
They see right through

     G
Can you see right through me?

 Am
They see right through

 Am
They see right through me

F
I see right through me

F
I see right through me
[Chorus]
              C            G         F
I've been the archer, I've been the prey

                          Am
Screaming, who could ever leave me, darling

    G          F
But who could stay?
[Chorus]
                          C
Why'd you have to lead me on? (Oh)

                            G
Why you'd have to twist the knife?
Walk away and leave me bleedin', bleedin'?
F                         C
 Why'd you whisper in the dark

                        G
Just to leave me in the night?
Now your silence has me screamin', screamin' (Woah)
F           C              G
(Say) Say, "(Don't) Don't (Go) go"

                             F           C             G
I would stay forever if you (Say) say, "(Don't) Don't (Go) go" woah
(Say, say, say, say) [Outro]
        F              C              G
But you won't, but you won't, but you won't

                           F   C       G
I would stay forever if you say, "Don't go"

        F              C              G
But you won't, but you won't, but you won't
[Chorus]
Am
  I call my mom, she said that it was for the best

F
 Remind myself, thе more I gave, you'd want me lеss

C                                                      G
 I cannot be your friend, so I pay the price of what I lost

                                    C
And what it cost, now that we don't talk
[Pre-Chorus]
C
 Let's fast forward to three hundred awkward blind dates later (Oh)

F
 If she's got blue eyes, I will surmise that you'll probably date her (Oh)

Am
  You dream of my mouth before it called you a lying traitor (Oh)

F
 You search in every model's bed for somethin' greater, baby
[Bridge]
            C
And did you think I didn't see you?

C
There were flashin' lights

C
At least I had the decency

                         F
To keep my nights out of sight

F
Only rumors 'bout my hips and thighs

F
And my whispered sighs

F
Oh, Lord, I think about

Am
Jumpin' off of very tall somethings

                     F
Just to see you come running

                                             C
And say the one thing I've been wanting, but no
[Verse]
C                          F
 Whеn you lost control (Uh-huh)

                          Am
Red blood, white snow (Uh-huh)

                         F
Blue dress on a boat (Uh-huh)
Your new girl is my clone [Chorus]
C
Are we out of the woods yet?

C
Are we out of the woods yet?

C
Are we out of the woods yet?

                  G
Are we out of the woods?

G
Are we in the clear yet?

G
Are we in the clear yet?

G
Are we in the clear yet?

                  Am
In the clear yet? Good

Am
Are we out of the woods yet?

Am
Are we out of the woods yet?

Am
Are we out of the woods yet?

                  F
Are we out of the woods?

F
Are we in the clear yet?

                  C
Now that we don’t talk.
[Bridge]
C              Dm             Am
  And I can go anywhere I want

         F                 C
Anywhere I want, just not home

                 Dm                       Am
And you can aim for my heart, go for blood

                     F               C
But you would still miss me in your bones

           Dm            Am            F                 C
And I still  talk to you    (When I'm screaming at the sky)

                  Dm              Am              F
And when you can't sleep at night  (You hear my stolen lullabies)
[Chorus]
Dm           Am          F                C     Dm
   I didn't have it in myself to go with grace

            Am                F         C          Dm
And so the battleships will sink beneath  the waves

            Am              F                   C
You had to kill me, but it killed you just the same

              Dm               Am
Cursing my name, wishing I stayed

                      F
You turned into your worst fears

C                          Dm                   Am
  And you're tossing out blame, drunk on this pain,

                  F
Crossing out the good years

           C              Dm               Am
And you're    cursing my name, wishing I stayed

            F
Look at how my tears ricochet
[Bridge]
 Am          G                   F
 So tell me everything is not about me

                C   G/B  Am
 But what if it is?

Am             G                F
 Then say they didn't do it to hurt me

                  C    G/B
 But what if they did?

           Dm                          F
 I want to snarl and show you just how disturbed this has made me

     Am                            G
 You wouldn't last an hour in the asylum where they raised me

    Dm                             F
 So all you kids can sneak into my house with all the cobwebs

     Am
 I'm always drunk on my own tears

   G
 Isn't that what they all said?

           C              G          Dm
 That I'll sue you if you step on my lawn

          C                G                Dm
 That I'm fearsome and I'm wretched and I'm wrong

     C              G       Dm
 Put narcotics into all of my songs

            C                G     Dm
 And that's why you're still singing along
[Bridge]
Am                      F                           C
 Six weeks of breathing clean air, I still miss the smoke

                        G                     Am
 Were you making fun of me with some esoteric joke?

                     F                            C
 Now I wanna sell my house and set fire to all my clothes

            G                              F G
 And hire a priest to come and exorcise my demons

               C G C F    C G C F
 Even if I die screa--------ming

                C G C F  C G C F
 And I hope you hear       it
[Bridge]
                     C                Am
Were you sent by someone who wanted me dead?

                     Gadd4              F
Did you sleep with a gun underneath our bed?

                   C                            Am
Were you writing a book? Were you a sleeper cell spy?

                     G               F
In fifty years, will all this be declassified?

                           C                            Am
And you'll confess why you did it and I'll say, "Good riddance"

                 G                    F
'Cause it wasn't sexy once it wasn't forbidden

                         C                           Am
I would've died for your sins, instead, I just died inside

                    G                 F
And you deserve prison, but you won't get time

                  C                           Am
You'll slide into inboxes and slip through the bars

               G                 F
You crashed my party and your rental car

                           C
You said normal girls were boring

                             Am
But you were gone by the morning

                   G                             F
You kicked out the stage lights, but you're still performing

                 C             G
 And I hope it's shitty in The Black Dog

      C                F
 When someone plays The Starting Line

          C                G
 And you jump up but she's too young

         C                  F
 To know this song that was intertwined

        C             G      C  F
 In the tragic fabric of our dreaming

        C                 G            C  F
 'Cause tail between your legs, you're lea-ving
[Interlude]
    C      G        Dm   F
 So who's afraid of me?

 C      G                Dm      F
 Who's afraid of little old me?

C       G                Dm      F
 Who's afraid of little old me?

                       C
And in plain sight you hid

                     Am
But you are what you did

                G                  F
And I'll forget you, but I'll never forgive

                       C
The smallest man who ever lived
[4. GUILT] [Pre-Chorus]
      C
And I know it's long gone and

     G
That magic's not here no more

      Am                        G
And I might be okay, but I'm not fine at all

F     G      F       G
Oh,   oh,    oh
[Chorus]
       C                          G
'Causе there we arе again on that little town street

    Am                                 F
You almost ran the red 'cause you were lookin' over at me

            C
Wind in my hair, I was there

       G               Am   F
I remember it all too well
[Chorus]
  C
I hate it here so I will go to Lunar valleys in my mind

Am
When they found a better planet Only the gentle survived

  G
I dreamed about it in the dark

                              F
The night I felt like I might die
No mid-sized city hopes and small-town fears
C                                             Am
I’m there most of the year ’cause I hate it here
[Outro] So take me to the Lakes
               G
I hate it here
So take me to the Lakes
               Em             F
Take me to the Lakes where all the poets went to die

              Am                            G/B
I don't belong  and, my beloved, neither do you

Em
  Those Windermere peaks--

         F
Look like a perfect place to cry

                   G                   Dm
So I'm setting off, but not without my muse

                C
No, not without you
[Pre-Chorus]
F   C
  I guess you never know, never know

F     C                                       F
  And if you wanted me, you really should've showed

    C                                       F
And if you never bleed, you're never gonna grow

          C
And it's alright now
[Chorus]
Am    C
  But we were something, don't you think so?

F   C                                    Dm7
   Roaring twenties, tossing pennies in the pool

    C
And if my wishes came true

Dm7 C
       It would've been you
C F C [Bridge]
         Am                                             F
And it's hard to be at a party when I feel like an open wound

                                                       G
It's hard to be anywhere these days when all I want is you

                                                       G
You're a flashback in a film reel on the one screen in my town
[Chorus]
                  Am               F               C    Csus2
And I just wanted you to know that this is me trying

              Am               F               Gsus4  G
I just wanted you to know that this is me trying
[Bridge]
Dm                             C
 You shit talked me under the table

                             F
 Talking rings and talking cradles

                     G
 I wish I could unrecall

                      Dm
 How we almost had it all

                          C
 Dancing phantoms on the terrace

                        F
 Are they secondhand embarrassed

                          G
 That I can't get out of bed

                               C
 'Cause something counterfeit's dead?
[Interlude]
Am                G
 It was legendary

G                 C
 It was momentary

Am
 It was unnecessary

   G
 Should've let it stay buried

G                    F
 Oh, what a valiant roar

                  Am
 What a bland goodbye

              G               G
 The coward claimed he was a lion

                 F                  Am
 I'm combing through the braids of lies

             G            G
 I'll never leave, never mind

                F                 Am
 Our field of dreams engulfed in fire

               G                 G
 Your arson's match, your somber eyes

                 F              Am
 And I'll still see it until I die

                      G     G
 You're the loss of my life

F
And I watch you tolerate it
[Chorus]
C                                   Fmaj7
I wait by the door like I'm just a kid

                              C
Use my best colors for your portrait

                           G
Lay the table with the fancy shit

                   C
And watch you tolerate it

                               Fmaj7
If it's all in my head tell me now

                           C
Tell me I've got it wrong somehow

                            G
I know my love should be celebrated

             Am
But you tolerate it

C                             Fmaj7
  Break free and leave us in ruins
Took this dagger in me and removed it
C                              G
  Gain the weight of you then lose it

                       C
  Believe me, I could do it

                                 Fmaj7
  If it's all in my head tell me now

                             C
  Tell me I've got it wrong somehow

                              G
  I know my love should be celebrated

               Am                    F
  But you tolerate it
[Post-Chorus]
F
You're losing me

G
 And I wouldn't marry me either

Am
 A pathological people pleaser

F
 Who only wanted you to see her

F
And I'm fading, thinkin'

Am                       F
"Do something, babe, say something"

G                           C
"Lose something, babe, risk something" (You're losing me)

Am                             F
"Choose something, babe, I got nothing"

       G          C                       Am
"To believe, unless you're choosing me"
F G [5. DEPRESSION] [Verse]
C       Fmaj7
 I want you to know

       Am
I'm a mirrorball

              Fmaj7                        C
I'll show you every version of yourself tonight

                 Fmaj7
I'll get you out on the floor

            Am
Shimmering beautiful

           Fmaj7
And when I break, it's in a million pieces
[Chorus]
C                                 F
 Hush, when no one is around, my dear

                      Am
You'll find me on my tallest tip-toes

                 F
Spinning in my highest heels, love

                     C
Shining just for you

C                                       F
 Hush, I know they said the end is near

                     Am
But I'm still on my tallest tip-toes

                F
Spinning in my highest heels, love
Shining just for you [Verse]
              F
   To kiss in cars, and downtown bars

              Am
   Was all we needed

            G
   You drew stars around my scars

               F
   But now I'm bleedin'

C
   'Cause I knew you

                   G
   Steppin' on the last train

                                F
   Marked me like a bloodstain, I
I knew you
                       G
   Tried to change the ending
Peter losin' Wendy, I
C
   I knew you

                   G                             F
   Leavin' like a father, runnin' like water, I

                                            G
   When you are young, they assume you know nothing
[Bridge]
        Am
 If the glint in my eye traced the depths of your sigh

           G
 Down that passage in time

                      Fmaj7
 Back to the moment I crashed into you, Like so many wrecks do

       G
 Too impaired by my youth

                 Fmaj7
 To know what to do
So if I sell my apartment
     C
 And you have some kids with an internet starlet

      Fmaj7                                          G
 Will that make your memory fade from this scarlet maroon?
Like it never happened
       Fmaj7
 Could it be enough to just float in your orbit?

     C
 Can we watch our phantoms like watching wild horses?

 Fmaj7
 Cooler in theory, but not if you force it

    G
 To be, it just didn’t happen
[Chorus]
Dm                          G
 So if you want to break my cold, cold heart

         C        Fmaj7
 Say you loved me

Dm                          G
 And if you want to tear my world apart

            C        Fmaj7
 Say you’ll always wonder

Dm G/B C           Fmaj7
        ‘Cause I wonder... if
[6. ACCEPTANCE]
         G             C
 I’ve had too much to drink tonight

                        Am                           F
But I wonder if they’ll miss me once they drive me out

                   G                    C
I wake up (wake up) in the middle of the night

          Am
And I can feel time moving

F                       G
 How can a person know everything at 18

    C          C/B    Am
But nothing at twenty-two?

             F             G
And will you still want me

         C     C/B     Am
Will you still WONDER

          F
Will you still want me

G
  When I’m nothing new?
C G Am F G [Bridge]
                  C
Well maybe we got lost in translation

        G
Maybe I asked for too much

               Am
But maybe this thing was a masterpiece

         F
'Til you tore it all up

             C
Running scared, I was there

           G        Am   F
I remember it all too well

        C
And you call me up again

         G
Just to break me like a promise

   Am                         F
So casually cruel in the name of being honest

          C                        G
I'm a crumpled up piece of paper lying here

                      Am        F
'Cause I remember it all, all, all
[Chorus]
F             G                Am
 I think I've seen this film before

      G
And I didn't like the ending

F              G          Am
  I'm not your problem anymore

   G                  F
So who am I offending now?

            G                 Am               C
You were my crown, now I'm in exile, seein' you out

F              G                Am
  I think I've seen this film before

                       G         C
So I'm leaving out the side door

          F                  G
And for a fortnight there we were forever

             Em              Am
Run into you sometimes, ask about the weather

                 F                  G
Now you're in my backyard, turned into good neighbors

                 C                  Am
Your wife waters flowers, I want to kill her

          F                  G
And for a fortnight there we were together

             Em                 Am
Run into you sometimes, comment on my sweater

                  F                 G
Now you're at the mailbox, turned into good neighbors

              C                   Am
My husband is cheating, I want to kill him

F              G                    C
 From sprinkler splashes to fireplace ashes

          Am                        F
I gave my blood, sweat and tears for this

         G                      C
I hosted parties and starved my body

            Am                F
Like I'd be saved by a perfect kiss

                  G                 C
The jokes weren't funny, I took the money

                Am                     Fsus
My friends from home don't know what to say

          G                       C
I looked around in a blood-soaked gown

              Am                  Fsus
And I saw something they can't take away

                        G
'Cause there were pages turned

                 C
With the bridges burned

               Am                Fsus
Everything you lose is a step you take

                       G
So make the friendship bracelets

                    C
Take the moment and taste it

              A           F
You've got no reason to be afraid

               G
You're on your own, kid

Am   F
Stop, you're losing me

G    C
Stop, you're losing me

Am   F
Stop, you're losing me

G
I can't find a pulse

C                    C/B    Am       F    G
My heart won't start anymore for you

C              C/B
'Cause you're losing me
Am C G Dm [Bridge]
        Am                                 C
And you say I abandoned the ship but I was going down with it

         G                          Dm
My white-knuckle dying grip holding tight to your quiet resentment

                    Am
And my friends said it isn't right to be scared

      C                           G
Every day of a love affair, every breath feels like rarest air

                Dm
When you're not sure if he wants to be there
[7. HOPE] [Verse]
C                            G
Time won't fly, it's like I'm paralyzed by it

            Am                            F
I'd like to be my old self again, but I'm still trying to find it

      C                                    G
After plaid shirt days and nights when you made me your own

        Am                        F
Now you mail back my things and I walk home alone

        C                           G
But you keep my old scarf from that very first week

            Am                            F
'Cause it reminds you of innocence and it smells like me

              C
You can't get rid of it

                G            Am      F
'Cause you remember it all too well, yeah
[Chorus]
C                  G
And that's how it works, it's

                F               C
How you get the girl,     ohohoh

                  G
And that's how it works, it's

                F
How you get the girl, ohohoh
[Bridge]
C
It's been 10 months sober, I must admit

F
Just because you're clean don't mean you don't miss him

C
10 months older, I won't give in

F
Now that I'm clean I'm never gonna risk it

                   G
That's how you get clean, ohohoh

                 F         C
That's how you get clean,       yeah

                  G
And that's how you get clean, yeah

                    C    G   Am
I think I'm finally clean

F                    C
I said I think I'm finally clean
[Chorus]
      C                         F
Long live the walls we crashed through

                      Am        G
I had the time of my life with you

            C                         F
Long, long live the walls we crashed through

                        Am                      G
How the kingdom lights shined just for me and you

                        C                      F
I was screaming, "long live all the magic we made"

                           Am                G
And bring on all the pretenders, I'm not afraid

              C                           F
Singing long live all the mountains we moved

                      Am
I had the time of my life

                       G
Fighting dragons with you

            C                      F
Long, long live that look on your face

                           Am
And bring on all the pretenders

     F            N.C.
One day ..... we will be remembered
