[Intro]
Am G F Dm
[Verse]
The Amnight gave you song
A lGight had been turned on
You wFalked out in the world
Like you beDmlong there
As Ameasy as a breeze
Each Gheart was yours to please
Is it oFnly me who sees
There’s something Dmwrong there
[Pre-Chorus]
COh la la,
I’m not a gGhost now
I can sFee you
You need to see Dmme
[Chorus]
It’s the liCttle things that give you aGway
The words you cannot Fsay
Your big mouth in the wDmay
[Verse]
I sAmaw you on the stairs
You dGidn’t notice I was there
That’s ‘cFause you were talking at me
And not Dmto me
You were Amhigh above the storm
A hGurricane being born
This fFreedom
It might cost you your Dmliberty
[Chorus]
It’s Cthe little things that give you aGway
The words you cannot Fsay
Your big mouth in the wDmay
It’s the liCttle things that tease and bGetray
As the hunted I become the pFrey
It’s the little things
DmThe little things that give you awAmay
Am
[Outro]
SomeCtimes
I can’t believe my eGxistence
See myself from a dFistance
I can’t gDmet back inside
SomeCtimes
The air is so aGnxious
All my thoughts are sFo reckless
And all of my innDmocence has died
SomeCtimes
I wake at four in the Gmorning
Where all the darkness is Fswarming
And it coDmvers me in fear
SomeCtimes, someGtimes, someFtimesDm  
SomeCtimes
I'm full of anger and Ggrieving
So far away from bFelieving
That any sDmong will reappear
SomeCtimes
The end is not cGoming
It’s not cFoming
The enDmd is here
SomeCtimesG  F  Dm  
SomeCtimes, someGtimes, someFtimesDm  
SomeCtimes
when the painted glass shaGtters
And you’re the only thing matteFrs
But I can’t Dmsee you through the tears
SomeCtimes
The end isn’t Gcoming
It’s not Fcoming
The end Dmis here
SomeCtimes
