[G#m] [E]
[B] I [F#] [B] [F#]
[G#m] was only looking for [E] a shortcut home
[B] But it's [F#] complicated, [B] so [F#] complicated
[G#m] Somewhere in this city [E] is a road I know
[B] Where we [F#] could make it, [B] but maybe there's [F#] no making it [E] now
[A#] [E]
[B] For too long we've been [F#] denying
Now we're both tired of [G#m] trying
We've hit a wall and [E] we can't get over it
[B] Nothing to [F#] relive it
Right under the [G#m] bridge you sat in
I get it, I [E] guess it is what it is
[G#m] I was only trying [B] to bury [E] the pain
[B] But I'm [F#] leaving crying, [B] I can't stop the [F#] crying
[G#m] Was only trying to save me, but I lost you [E] again
[B] Now there's only [F#] lying, [B] wish I could say [F#] it so [E] clean
For
[B] too long we've been [F#] denying
Now we're both tired of [G#m] trying
We've hit a wall and we can't [E] get over it
[B] Nothing to [F#] relive it
Water under the [G#m] bridge you sat in
I get it, I guess it is what [E] it is
Here it comes, ready or [F#] not, we've been found out
It's not all we [G#m] thought that it would be
[C#m] How it would [G#m] [E] be
What this town can do is [F#] surprise
What once was lost may be [G#m] found for you and me
For you [C#m] and [B] [G#m] me
[E] For [B] [F#]
[B] [F#] [B] too long we've been [F#] denying
Now we're both tired of [G#m] trying
We've hit a wall and [E] we can't get over it
[B] Nothing to [F#] relive it
Water under the [G#m] bridge you sat in
I get it, I guess it is what it is
[E]
[G#m] I was only looking [E] for a shortcut [B] home
But it's [F#] complicated, [B] so [F#] complicated
