[Intro]

C Em Am Dm

Dm G C C

C Em Am Dm

C G C C

[Verse 1]

C Em Am Dm

Oh it may be, that we are neverending

Dm G C C

but i wouldn't ever shine my shoes for you

C Em Am Dm

and you may think that we are done pretending

Dm G C C

but the rain that I wrote came from the blue

[Chorus]

Am Am C C

drain my wine like that widow at the window

G C

that plays through my mind

G C

that i'm on another skyline

C Em

from you

Am Dm

from you

Dm C

from you

C G C

from you

[Verse 2]

C Em Am Dm Dm G C C

Oh I look back on when we were two drifters drifting along so aimlessly

C Em

we lost our way

Am Dm Dm G C C

forget those days cause i'm done pretending that there's still so much for us to see

[Chorus 2]

Am Am C C

drain my wine like that widow at the window

G C

that plays through my mind

G C

that I'm on another skyline

from you

Am C C

dress my best clothes just to lean against a lamp post

G C

and think of those days

G C

of time spent the wrong way

with you

[Bridge]

Dm G G

ink seeps in through my skin

Em Em Am Am

forgotten as I etch it in

Dm G G

though I may feel better for a while

Em Em Am Am

even moods grow in and out of style

Dm Dm G G

Let you get ahead

C Em Am Dm

Dm G C C

Dm Dm G

remember me fondly when i'm gone

G Em Em Am Am

I've already been happy for far too long

Dm Dm G

I know it's such a shame that we pretend

G Em Em Am Am

My darling we're racing towards different ends

Dm Dm G G

remember me fondly when i'm gone

[Verse 3]

C Em Am Dm

oh i look back on when we were two drifters

Dm G C C

drifting along so aimlessly

C Em

we lost our way

forget those days

I'm done pretending

Dm G C

that there's still so much for us to see
