Verse 1CEmD
When I was younger I was certain that I'd be fine without a queen
CEmD
Just a king inside his castle, with an ocean in between
CEmDA7CD
Now all I do is sit and count the miles from you to me. Oh, Calamity...
CEmD
We get older by the hour, watch the changes from afar
CEmD
Keep forgetting to remember, where we've been is who we are
CEmDA7CD
Now all I do is wonder why we ever set the scene. Oh, Calamity...
ChorusCGD
It's such a shame that we play strangers,
CGD
No act to change what we've become
CGBEm
Damn, it's such a shame that we built a wreck out of me,
A7CD
Oh, Calamity... Oh, Calamity...
Verse 2CEmD
I'll remember nights alone, and waking up to dial tones

Always found my greatest moments, in the sound of your hello's
CEmDA7CD
Now I struggle to recall the reasons you would come to leave. Oh, Calamity...
ChorusCGD
It's such a shame that we play strangers,
CGD
No act to change what we've become
CGBEm

A7C
Oh, Calamity... Oh, Calamity...

ChorusCGD
It's such a shame that we play strangers,

No act to change what we've become
