[Gm]
[C]
I still recall the taste of your tears
[G] [Fm] [G] Echoing your voice just like [C] the ringing in my [G] ears
[Fm] [G] My favorite dreams of you still wash [Em] ashore
[G] [C] Scraping through my [G] hair till I [C] don't wanna sleep [G] [C] anymore
[Ab] [C]
[Ab] [C] You make this all go [Em] away
You make [Fm] this all go [G] away
I'm down to just [Ab] one [C] thing
I'm starting [Fm] to scare myself
[C] You make this all go [Em] away
You make [Fm] it all go [G] away
I just want something now
[C] I just want [Fm] something I [C] can never have
You always were the one to show me how
[Fm] [C] Back then I [G] couldn't do the things [C] that I can do [Fm] now
[C] This thing [G] is slowly taking me [C] apart
[Fm] [Cm] Gray [G] would be the color
[Ab] [C] If I had [Fm] a heart
Come on, tell [C] me
You make this all go away
You make [Fm] this all go [G] away
I'm down to just [C] one thing
I'm starting [Fm] to scare myself

In this place it seems like such a shame
Though it all looks different now
I know it's still the same
[Ab]
[C] Everywhere I look you're all I see
[Fm]
Just [C] a feet [G] fucking reminder [C] of
Who I used [F] to be
Come on, [Fm] tell [C] me
You make this all go away
You make [Fm] this all go [C] away
I'm down to just one thing
I'm starting [F] to scare [Fm] myself
[C] You make this all [G] [C] go away
You make [Fm] it all go [C]
away
I just want something
I just want [Fm] something I [Bb] can never have
I [Fm]
just want something [Ab] I can never have
I can never have
