[Intro]
D   Dmaj7   Gmaj7   G
[Verse 1]
D
It is so easy to see
Dmaj7
Dysfunction between you and me
Gmaj7
We must free up these tired souls
G
Before the sadness kills us both
D
I tried and tried to let you know
Dmaj7
I love you but I'm letting go
Gmaj7
It may not last but I don't know
G
Just don't know
[Pre-Chorus]
D
If you don't know, then you can't care
Dmaj7
And I show up, but you're not there
Gmaj7
But I'm waiting, and you want to
G
Still afraid that I will desert you
[Chorus]
D
Every day
        Dmaj7                         D
With every worthless word we get more far away
     Dmaj7                           G
The distance between us makes it so hard to stay
      Gmaj7                        Gm
But nothing lasts forever, but be honest babe
                                   D
It hurts but it may be the only way
[Verse 2] 
   D
A bed that's warm with memories
   Dmaj7
Can heal us temporarily
   Gmaj7
But misbehaving only makes
    G
The ditch between us so damn deep
   D
I built a wall around my heart
   Dmaj7
Never let it fall apart
   Gmaj7
Strangely, I wish secretly
   G
It would fall down while I'm asleep
[Pre-Chorus]
D
If you don't know, then you can't care
Dmaj7
And I show up, but you're not there
Gmaj7
But I'm waiting, and you want to
G
Still afraid that I will desert you
[Chorus]
D
Every day
      Dmaj7                            D
With every worthless word we get more far away
      Dmaj7                          G
The distance between us makes it so hard to stay
      Gmaj7                         Gm
But nothing lasts forever, but be honest babe
It hurts but it may be the only way
[Bridge]
Em
Though we have not hit the ground
G                             D        Bm
Doesn't mean we're not still falling, oh
Em
I want so bad to pick you up
G                                 D
But you're still too reluctant to accept my help
        Bm                                      A
What a shame, I hope you find somewhere to place the blame
But until then the fact remains
[Chorus]
D
Every day
        Dmaj7                          D
With every worthless word we get more far away
        Dmaj7                         G
The distance between us makes it so hard to stay
        Gmaj7                        Gm
But nothing lasts forever, but be honest babe
                                   D
It hurts but it may be the only way
D
Every day
       Dmaj7                           D
With every worthless word we get more far away
       Dmaj7                          G
The distance between us makes it so hard to stay
       Gmaj7                        Gm
But nothing lasts forever, but be honest babe
                                   D
It hurts but it may be the only way
