This is a beautiful song... there weren't any chord tabs for this song so I made mine.
Tuning: CAPO ON I (F,A#,D#,G#,C,F)
I can see where you are 
I can tell you're enjoying it so far 
I would love to escape, but now I'm bound 
By the of burn of your eyes 
Looking on as I'm starting to realize 
I'm a pawn in your game and this is checkmate 
BmAs the roses lift their hGeads to catch a glimpse of my demBmise
You'll be throwing lGies around like ocean wAaves throw down the tDides 
And they are breaking on Amy shore
And the rBmescue team won't save me now I'm Gout too far 
So I'll wDaste these nAights for a whBmile
But I'll be hGolding onto you foArever
And tDhis is where my hAeart is cold Bmand torn
As I rGead the words you wrote last night
the bAutterflies are crAeeping down my spine 
It's a thrill I can't shake 
Yeah I know we've been writing a mistake 
But it's hard to erase the feelings I've drawn 
I was caught in an awkward silence 
Broken down by the sound of your prelude that you played 
To open our symphony
BmI've been sleeping with the sGunrise watching hours pass aBmway
Incidentally I'm just wGaiting for the dAusk to kill the dDay
But now I'm waiting for yAour call 
While I bBmang on this piano like you cGare at all 
So I'll wDaste these niAghts for a wBmhile
But I'll be hGolding onto you foArever
And thDis is where my heAart is cold anBmd torn
As I hGear the words you're saying tonight
I'm fAalling for them evAery single tDime 
-Interlude: D, A, Bm, G  
As the roses dip their heads a little further to the ground           
There's a season change and all the pinks and whites have turned to brDown
Will we make it through the fAallBm  
Yeah are we gonna make it through thGis fall
‘cAause I don't wanna fall with you
So I'll wDaste these niAghts for a wBmhile             (I'm trying,)
But I'll be hGolding onto you foArever               (We're dying,)
And thDis is where my heAart is cold anBmd torn        (Yeahhhh)
I'm taGken by your hope-filled lines 
They're wAell designed and dragging me aGlong 
I'll be wAaiting for this chance and I'll be gDone

This is a beautiful song... there weren't any chord tabs for this song so I made mine.

Tuning: CAPO ON I (F,A#,D#,G#,C,F)

I can see where you are

I can tell you're enjoying it so far

I would love to escape, but now I'm bound

By the of burn of your eyes

Looking on as I'm starting to realize

I'm a pawn in your game and this is checkmate

Bm G Bm

As the roses lift their heads to catch a glimpse of my demise

G A D

You'll be throwing lies around like ocean waves throw down the tides

And they are breaking on my shore

Bm G

And the rescue team won't save me now I'm out too far

D A Bm

So I'll waste these nights for a while

G A

But I'll be holding onto you forever

D A Bm

And this is where my heart is cold and torn

As I read the words you wrote last night

A A

the butterflies are creeping down my spine

It's a thrill I can't shake

Yeah I know we've been writing a mistake

But it's hard to erase the feelings I've drawn

I was caught in an awkward silence

Broken down by the sound of your prelude that you played

To open our symphony

Bm G Bm

I've been sleeping with the sunrise watching hours pass away

G A D

Incidentally I'm just waiting for the dusk to kill the day

But now I'm waiting for your call

Bm G

While I bang on this piano like you care at all

D A Bm

So I'll waste these nights for a while

G A

But I'll be holding onto you forever

D A Bm

And this is where my heart is cold and torn

As I hear the words you're saying tonight

A A D

I'm falling for them every single time

D A Bm G

-Interlude: , , ,

As the roses dip their heads a little further to the ground

There's a season change and all the pinks and whites have turned to brown

A Bm

Will we make it through the fall

Yeah are we gonna make it through this fall

‘cause I don't wanna fall with you

D A Bm

So I'll waste these nights for a while (I'm trying,)

G A

But I'll be holding onto you forever (We're dying,)

D A Bm

And this is where my heart is cold and torn (Yeahhhh)

I'm taken by your hope-filled lines

A G

They're well designed and dragging me along

A D

I'll be waiting for this chance and I'll be gone
