F Gm Bb Dm C Bb

Intro:

(Notes for intro are G, F, C. Continue through song.)

F Gm

I found some perspective gathering dust

In the back of my drawer

Dm C Bb

I didn't know it was there but I'm glad 'cause I've never needed it more

F Gm

And I found the letters that we used to write

Just a few years ago

Dm C Bb

I didn't know things had changed that much but I guess that now it shows

And it's what I make of this

That defines just who I am

And I know your mind won't change

'Cause you just don't understand

And I know the times were good

But that's what memories are for

I can live without you here

I don't need you anymore

F Gm

Yeah, life was a canvas and we had a brush

And we'd paint our every day

Dm C Bb

But now you're gone and I'm left with a smear and a thousand shades of grey

F Gm

So I'll pack my bags up 'cause I'm moving out

By tonight I'll be gone

Dm C

I'll leave this life and I'll say goodbye

'Cause I am moving on

F C Dm Bb
