Verse 1F#mAE
Back me down from backing up
BF#m
Hold your breath now it's stacking up
AE
Etched with marks, but I can deal
BC#m
And you're the problem and you can't feel
AB
Try this on, straitjacket feeling
G#m
so maybe I won't be alone
AB
Take back now, my life you're stealing
Chorus
Yesterday was over
E
Today I'm fine without you
C#m
Runaway this time without you
A
And all I ever thought you'd be
BAG#mF#m
That face is tearing holes in me again
Verse 2
Trust you is just one defense
off a list of others, you don't make sense
Beg me time and time again
to take you back now, but you can't win
Take back now, my life you're stealing
Chorus
Yesterday was over
E
Today I'm fine without you
C#m
Runaway this time without you
A
And all I ever thought you'd be
BAG#mF#m
That face is tearing holes in me again
Chorus 2
but today I'm fine without you
Runaway this time without you
And all the things you put me through
I'm holding on by letting go of you
BridgeAF#mG#m
And when the memory slips away
EA
There will be a better view from here
F#mG#m
And only lonesome you remains
EA
and just the thought of you I fear
F#m
it falls away
Chorus
Yesterday was over
E
Today I'm fine without you
C#m
Runaway this time without you
A
And all I ever thought you'd be
BAG#mF#m
That face is tearing holes in me again
Chorus 2
but today I'm fine without you
Runaway this time without you
And all the things you put me through
I'm holding on by letting go of you
