Sat up for hours

Thought of a lover

I’ll probably never
Get the chance

to hold again

All of my days
spend waiting for

Nights with her
F--
again again
C
And I’m sharing a
G Am
drink with a memory
G
And a laugh with

an empty seat
G
Do you still look the same?
Am
Will you still
G
look at me the same?
F
Cause I know that I don’t
G
I’ve gotten so old
Am G
in these last few years

And I’d rather be fighting with you

Than sleeping here, next to her

Chorus:
C
Don’t let me fall, I’ll break
Am
What a mess I’d make
F
Pathetic --pieces-- on your floor
G
Will cut your feet forever more
C Am
You’re porcelain, such fragile skin
F
Just let me hold you I’ll be gentle
G
I won’t drop you
Am
This time I’ll be careful
Verse 2:
C G
Forget for just one second
Am G
That this is not alright
C G
Let’s drink to feeling nothing
Am G
At least just for tonight
F
Stay for one more
G
Pass out on the floor
Am
like we used to do
G
It got so hot in your room
(Repeat Chorus)

And I can’t let it go

This phantom pain

I’m feeling

And the hurt won’t

leave me alone

And I’m tired of

sleeping with ghosts

Verse 3:
C
Fell asleep
with your ghost

Woke up with a
headache
Am
From the cure that’s
only temporary
G
And in the morning
always fails me
(Repeat chorus)
