[Intro] Am D Am D [Verse 1]
Am                                      D
   Maybe I should just keep actin' like nothin's wrong

Am                                           D
   Or maybe that's a damn fool's way of just holdin' on

         C                           Am                         F
To some wasted little thing that anybody else would see is wrong

             G                   E                Am      D
Just like an old man tellin' the same joke everyday

             F                                G                      C
It ain't the knowin'-that-it's-over, it's the watchin'-it-slippin'-away
[Verse 2]
Am                                                   D
    I wonder if the birds'll ever sing the way they used to do

Am                                                    D
    When will this empty pillow next to me not be a lonesome view?

C                                               Am                     F
    I wanna hear a different melody, but there just ain't nothin' new

         G                    E                             Am
It's the same old song that keeps me shackled here in this bed

D                 F                                  G                    C
    It ain't the what-you-think-is-comin', it's the sad truth it isn't here
[Chorus]
           F                    C
It doesn't matter if I still remember

           F                    C
That cold night down in Santa Fe

          F                            C
Where you told me all your lonely secrets

      F                            C
And I swore I'd never give 'em away

         F                            C
I bought you a necklace down in the market

        F                        C
You got me that old pawnshop guitar

            F                       D                            G
You read me my first love song the whole way back home in the car
[Verse 3] Am D Am D
C                                    Am                    F
    Sometimes I wonder if I made this whole thing up in my head

            G                   E                             F Am D
Just like a kid in his room afraid of what he'll find in dark

             F                       G                       C       F
But when I turn on the light I can see it's really fallin' apart

                C       F
It's fallin' apart

                  C      F
It's fallin' apart

                       C      F          C
Yeah, I'm fallin' apart
