[Intro]
 C   Am(x2)
[Verse]
The fCuture seemed dimmer and unbearably cold
The nAmights we learned there's a meanness in this woFrldG  
And it will fCind you
I sCtill recall the yellow flowers you held
My rAmoom in the basement and the nights it rained like hFellG  
Until the mCorning
[Chorus]
CThere is a line thaC/Bt sharply divides thisAm  
This great exGpanse of space and tFime
With you on yGour side and me on mCine
If this should be the C/Blast song I sing I'dAm  
I'd like to tGell you just one tFhing
How I lGoved you desperately
[Interlude]
 C   Am(x2)
[Verse]
I'll rCattle the screws loose on this hospital bed
AmSickly and stirring from the things I should have sFaidG  
When I said nCothing
CI should have known you would have listened to me
You'd Amsave me from drowning in the secrets that I kFeepG  
You could have sCaved meEm  F  G  
[Chorus]
CThere is a line thaC/Bt sharply divides thisAm  
This great exGpanse of space and tFime
With you on yGour side and me on mCine
If this should be the C/Blast song I sing I'dAm  
I'd like to tGell you just one tFhing
How I lAmoved you, I still lGove you desperately
