Verse 1: 
            Cadd9   G                      D   G 
You tell me I'm the one that's brought this between us 
      Cadd9     G               D Dsus4 D 
But I don't see things that way 
              Cadd9    G        D         G 
If it's up to me, I've tried to hold on forever 
      Cadd9     G          D    Dsus4 D 
But I could not get you to stay 
              Em               Cadd9 
If it's up to me I'd climb the highest mountain 
G                 D  Dsus4  D 
Just to sing your praise and 
Em              Cadd9 
I'd take almost every burden 
    G                D Dsus4 D 
And weights I cannot raise for you 
 
Repeat 1/2 Intro 
 
Verse 2: 
When I found you I found cliche romance 
And a phony saving grace 
And I lived every moment for you 
In a cold and lonely place 
I find myself rolling under 
And burning time away 
Two years gone and long forgotten 
Distant through the haze 
 
Chorus: 
G         D      Em7/G   Cadd9 
Nighttime Corpus can get lonely 
G          D      Cadd9 
Strung out on the bay 
G          D     Em7/G    Cadd9 
Ships sail out before the morning 
       G      D    Dsus4 Cadd9 
It's a trip I just won't make

Verse   
Well I made my mind to make my mind up to wind up back home 
Cus there's nothing left for me here 
Just minimum wages and old photo pages 
Stained up with all of my tears 
And I'm checking out this morning before the dawn and 
With an old and solemn face, I'm 
Out to find some better days  
Far from this place, aw
