Staring at the eC#mnd of what we maAde and who we Eare
Never knowing wG#mhen

ALove, I don't know what to Bsay
Love, I don't know how to sC#mtay
When you won't lAet me be the person that I amB  
The writing's on the C#mwall, there's nothing to say anyAmore
So I'll leave before I G#mfall apart right bAack into your arBms
The writing's on the wC#mall, you gave nothing and I gave it aAll
But I want something better and I G#mwon't let this bAurden bring me dEown
What are we to G#mdo?
What are we to sC#may to one another nAow we're throughE?
Thanks for being yG#mou
Thanks for being aC#mll the things I hG#mad to say goodbAye to
I'm over being lBied to
I'm over being puC#mshed into the
APerson that you want me to beBcome
The writing's on the C#mwall, there's nothing to say anyAmore
So I'll leave before I G#mfall apart right bAack into your arBms
The writing's on the wC#mall, you gave nothing and I gave it aAll
But I want something better and I G#mwon't let this bAurden bring me dEown
(whistling)
 G#m–  C#m–  A–  E–  G#m–  C#m- A  
BWhere did we go wrong?A  
We let it be so longB  
But Anow there's no point turning back, let's faBce the facts
The writing's on the C#mwall, there's nothing to say anyAmore
So I'll leave before I G#mfall apart right bAack into your arBms
The writing's on the wC#mall, you gave nothing and I gave it aAll
But I want something better and G#mI won't let this Aburden bring me
G#mI won't let this Aburden bring me
G#mI won't let this Aburden bring me Edown
