[Verse]
BAnother grey night
D#mBlue lake soaks my pillowcase
I Ewait, I wait
But you F#never get back to me
BI'm dancing in my head
D#mBut I know the answer is no
‘Cause Eyou don't, you don't
Know how it F#feels to fall in love
[Chorus]
And I Bcouldn't look you in the eyes
‘Cause I F#knew I'd fall a thousand flights G#magain
And I ran ‘cause I knew that I'd lose who I Eam
And I Bknow how far I thought I'd come
But with one F#beat of the drum, my heart's going wild aG#mgain
I close my eyes and I swear
But I Ecan't help
I can't help but stare.
[Verse]
BOh I just did what I do
D#mAnd got too attached to you
Now you're Efalling in love with someone that's not me
Oh F#give me a moment to breathe
[Chorus]
And I Bcouldn't look you in the eyes
‘Cause I knF#ew I'd fall a thousand flights G#magain
And I ran ‘cause I knew that I'd lose who I Eam
And I Bknow how far I thought I'd come
But with one F#beat of the drum, my heart's going wild again
G#mI close my eyes and I swear
But I Ecan't help
I can't help but stBare.
I can't help but sF#tare.

[Verse]

Another grey night

D#m

Blue lake soaks my pillowcase

I wait, I wait

But you never get back to me

I'm dancing in my head

D#m

But I know the answer is no

‘Cause you don't, you don't

Know how it feels to fall in love

[Chorus]

And I couldn't look you in the eyes

F# G#m

‘Cause I knew I'd fall a thousand flights again

And I ran ‘cause I knew that I'd lose who I am

And I know how far I thought I'd come

F# G#m

But with one beat of the drum, my heart's going wild again

I close my eyes and I swear

But I can't help

I can't help but stare.

[Verse]

Oh I just did what I do

D#m

And got too attached to you

Now you're falling in love with someone that's not me

Oh give me a moment to breathe

[Chorus]

And I couldn't look you in the eyes

F# G#m

‘Cause I knew I'd fall a thousand flights again

And I ran ‘cause I knew that I'd lose who I am

And I know how far I thought I'd come

But with one beat of the drum, my heart's going wild again

G#m

I close my eyes and I swear

But I can't help

I can't help but stare.

G#m Em

I can't help i can't help but stare

[Bridge]

G#m

Come back, no don't come back

D#m C#m

I'm happy on my own without you lighting up my phone

But you still feel like home to me

Every day's another fight when I can't get you off my mind

I don't wanna look anymore.

Another grey night

Blue lake soaks my pillowcase

I wait, I wait

But you never get back to me

[Chorus]

And I couldn't look you in the eyes

‘Cause I knew I'd fall a thousand flights again

And I ran ‘cause I knew that I'd lose who I am

And I know how far I thought I'd come

But with one beat of the drum, my heart's going wild again

I close my eyes and I swear

[Outro]

I can't help but stare.
