Verso 1:
D6
All I can ever be to you,
G#m7/5b
Is a darkness that we knew,
Gmaj7
And this regret,
F#m7Em9D/F#GE/G#
I got ac-customed to.
D6
Once it was so right,
G#m7/5b
When we were at our high,
Gmaj7
Waiting for you,
F#m7Em9D/F#GE/G#
In the ho-tel at night.
Verso 2:
D6
I knew I hadn't,
Met my match,
G#m7/5b
But every moment,
We could snatch.
Gmaj7
I don't know why,
F#m7Em9D/F#GE/G#
I got so attached.
D6
It's my responsibility,
G#m7/5b
And you don't owe,
Nothing to me,
Gmaj7
But to walk away;
F#m7Em9F#m7
I have no ca-pacity.
Refrão 1:
Gmaj7F#m7
He walks away,
Bm7
The sun goes down,
Gmaj7
He takes the day,
F#m7Bm7
But I'm grown.
Gmaj7
And in this grey,
F#m7Bm7
In this blue shade,
E7
My tears dry,
F#m7G
On their own.
Verso 3:
D6
I don't understand,
G#m7/5b*
Why do I stress a man,
Gmaj7
When there?s so many,
F#m7Em9D/F#GE/G#
Better things at hand.
D6
We could a never had it all,
G#m7/5b*
We had to hit a wall,
Gmaj7
So this is,
F#m7Em9D/F#GE/G#
In-evita-ble withdrawal.
Verso 4:
D6
Even if I stop wanting you,
G#m7/5b
A Per-spective pushes through,
Gmaj7F#m7
I'll be some next man's,
Em9D/F#GE/G#
Other woman soon.
D6
I can't play myself again,
G#m7/5b
I should just be,
My own best friend,
Gmaj7F#m7
Not fuck myself in the head,
Em9F#m7
With stupid men.
Refrão 2:
Gmaj7F#m7
He walks away,
Bm7
The sun goes down,
Gmaj7
He takes the day,
F#m7Bm7
But I'm grown.
Gmaj7
And in this grey,
F#m7Bm7
In this blue shade,
E7
My tears dry,
F#m7G
On their own.
Ponte 1:
A
So we are history,
Your shadow covers me,
The sky above,
A blaze...
Refrão 3:
Gmaj7F#m7
He walks away,
Bm7
The sun goes down,
Gmaj7
He takes the day,
F#m7Bm7
But I'm grown.
A
And in your wake,
In this blue shade,
My tears dry,
On their own.
Verso 5:
D6
I wish I could say,
No regrets,
G#m7/5b
And no emotional debts,
Gmaj7F#m7
'Cos as we kiss good-bye,
Em9D/F#GE/G#
The sun sets.
D6
So we are history,
G#m7/5b
The shadow covers me,
Gmaj7F#m7
The sky above a blaze,
Em9F#m7
That only lovers see.
Refrão 3:
Gmaj7F#m7
He walks away,
Bm7
The sun goes down,
Gmaj7
He takes the day,
F#m7Bm7
But I'm grown.
Gmaj7
And in this grey,
F#m7Bm7
In this blue shade,
E7
My tears dry,
F#m7G
On their own.
Refrão 4:
Gmaj7F#m7
He walks away,
Bm7
The sun goes down,
Gmaj7
He takes the day,
F#m7Bm7
But I'm grown.
Gmaj7
And in this grey,
F#m7Bm7
In this deep shade,
Gmaj7
My tears dry,
F#m7Bm7
On their own.
Refrão 5:
Gmaj7F#m7
He walks away,
Bm7
The sun goes down,
Gmaj7
He takes the day
F#m7Bm7
But I'm grown.
Gmaj7
And in your wake
F#m7Bm7
My deep shade,
Gmaj7F#m7Bm7
My tears dry...
