[Intro] C Dm Am 2x G C F C Dm C (fast change) G [Verse 1]
C     Dm                   Am
      Once I was alive and I could feel

C           Dm                 Am
      I was holding on to you

G        C             F     C         Dm   C         G
   And I redefined the way I looked at dawn inside of you
G
C       Dm                      Am
      I went down a crooked highway

C            Dm                   Am
      I went all outside the line

G           C         F       C         Dm         C          G
  I've been rejected, now the light has turned and I'm out of time
G [Chorus 1]
         F
Ain't no way I'm gonna last

              Am             Em            G
Hiding in the seams, I can't move the past

          F
Feel like I'm about to crash

             Am         Em            G
Riding on on line, keep keeping on
[Verse 2]
C     Dm                     Am
      Once we were apart and I could see red

C     Dm                             Am
      Never trying to turn back time

G      C                 F    C      Dm        C         G
 Never meant to bring my pain to the front and into your life
G
C     Dm                    Am
      Now I'm headed down a different road

C            Dm                    Am
      Can we walk it side by side?

      G       C  F    C       Dm     C      G
Is an old memory just another way of saying goodbye?
G [Chorus 2]
         F
Ain't no way I'm gonna last

              Am             Em            G
Hiding in the seams, I can't move the past

          F
Feel like I'm about to crash

               Am         Em            G
Riding on same line, keep keeping on
[Solo] C Dm Am 2x G C F C Dm C (fast change) G [Bridge]
        F
I ain't never going to change

                        Am
He'll never get in line

       Em
I keep moving on the path, yeah

G
Holding on to mine

         F
When you talk about the past
What are we talking of?
      Em
Did I let go too fast?
Was I holding on too long?
         F
Ain't no truths from the past
As silent as the sea
     Em
Am I holding on too long?
But you're right in front of me
        F
And I'm moving on a cast

              Am
Shadows on my seam

       Em                 G
I keep moving to changes, yeah

G
Ooh
[Outro]
C  Dm
(till the end)
