GAt the beginning it was Gsus2perfect
Two broken Em7souls with nothing to Cadd9lose
Didn't Gknow that it wouldn't be Gsus2worth it
Didn't Em7know love was just a ruseCadd9  
Those Gnights together Gsus2were bliss
With love Em7pumping through my veinsCadd9  
All that Gmattered was your sweet Gsus2kiss
So I Em7threw away the reinsCadd9  
G, Gsus2, Em7, Cadd9  
CHORUS:
And we Gspent our nights becoming one with the Gsus2stars

With our converse shoes and acoustic guitars
GSinging about love and money and Gsus2cars
                         Em7           Cadd9Cadd9add13   Cadd9  
Forgetting our sadness, our pain and our scars
In the Gmiddle, things were Gsus2complicated
But as Em7simple as it could beCadd9  
Another Gside of you was Gsus2created
And it Em7wasn't quite fond of meCadd9  
But Gwhile you were you, things couldn't Gsus2be better
And it was Em7plain for all to seeCadd9  
That Gthis was real love, right Gsus2down to the letter
I was Em7locked, you were my keyCadd9

Em7, Gsus2, Cadd9, G  
But Em7then it got Gsus2crazy
I Gcould never have Cadd9sensed
That my Em7lips weren't the Gsus2ones
That yours were Cadd9pressed Gagainst
Em7Drunk and high Gsus2without me
You got Gwith another Cadd9man
If it Em7wasn't the end Gsus2there
Then that's where the Cadd9end be-Ggan

G, Gsus2, Em7, Cadd9, Cadd9add13, Cadd9  
SINGLE STRUM
On the Em7night of new beginnings
You told me Gsus2you couldn't pretend
This was a Ggame worth winning
And that this Cadd9had to end
You Em7told me we were over
That you Gsus2couldn't continue this fight
And you were Cadd9higher than you've ever been
But the Gskies were empty that night
BACK TO NORMAL STRUMS
G, Gsus2, Em7, Cadd9  
G, Gsus2, Em7, Cadd9  
Since Gthen the sky has been missing a Gsus2star

And when the sun rose, my wrist had a scar
And Gnow my friends have joined me and the Gsus2stars
