Or maybe you go where the G#wind blows
All I know is I’m F#right either way
  C#Every word you spoke was Bbmsubtle
So I never gave you one G#rebuttal
Because somehow I knew you F#meant what you said
  F#It’s like I spoke to you
  G#It’s like you spoke to me
  F#You know we need each other
  G#These things we built could last forever
[CHORUS]
C#Sometimes we watch our F#heroes die
And we don’t Bbmknow why
And We don’t F#know why
They G#left us so young
C#Sometimes we watch our F#mirrors cry
And we don’t Bbmknow why
And We don’t F#know why
They G#left us undone

Bbm

C# Bbm

Maybe you’re a tree who’s leaves stay

Or maybe you go where the wind blows

All I know is I’m right either way

C# Bbm

Every word you spoke was subtle

So I never gave you one rebuttal

Because somehow I knew you meant what you said

It’s like I spoke to you

It’s like you spoke to me

You know we need each other

These things we built could last forever

[CHORUS]

C# F#

Sometimes we watch our heroes die

Bbm

And we don’t know why

And We don’t know why

They left us so young

C# F#

Sometimes we watch our mirrors cry

Bbm

And we don’t know why

And We don’t know why

They left us undone

[BRIDGE]

F# C# G#

And I am now everything good that you did

F# C# G#

I’m tossing out all of the things you kept hid

F# C#

Like the scars on your knuckles

The way that you chuckled…

C# Bbm

When the bottle made way for it

And I know you hear me
