[Gm] [F] [Bb]
[Ab] [Eb] [F]
[Gm] [F] [Bb]
[Ab] [Eb] [F] This is the last time I'll look [Bb] across the table, [F] I'm trying to face the feeling I don't even [Bb] recognize.
[C] This is a sad end, a beast that [F] causes [C] pressure, when all we build around us [Bb] is crashing to [F] the ground.
[Bb] [F] There was a tide turning somewhere deep inside us, when all these years together, lost me [Bb] behind my tears.
[C] Hard work of times, that in between the dog bites, I felt the pain through my bones, the [Bb] pain in [F] my head.
[Bb] [F] [A] But I still try to love you, [D] I still try [Gm] to care,
[Bbm] still try to hold on with the power [F] of my prayers.
[A] You can't fight the rumor, [D] you can't hide it [Gm] when you're
[Bbm] young.
[F] Once I'll rule [Bb] my state, once I'll [F] [Bb]
rule my state, to this is the fame [F] of the past.
[Bb]
[Ab] [Eb] [Bb] [F]
As the rain falls, I listen to the radio, I try to memorize the words, Georgia [Bb] on my mind.
[C] A pitiful song, we never stood against our time, the lies inside the rumor, left [Bb] us all [F] behind.
[Bb]
[Dm] [A] But I still try, [D] I still try [Gm] to care,
[Bbm] still try to hold on with the power of [F]
[A] my prayers.
You can't fight [D] the rumor, you can't hide [Gm] [Bbm] it when you're young.
[Fm] [Bb] Once I'll [B] rule [Bb] my state,
[F] once I'll rule [Bb]
my state, to this is the fame [F] of the [A]
past.
[Bb] [Ab] [Eb]
[Bb] [F] [Ab] When we [Eb] say goodbye, [Bb] you're sure to look [F] me in [Ab] the eye, you know the [Eb] real secret, what's the [Gm] thing we didn't have [A] yet.
But I still try, [D] I still [Gm] try
[Bbm]
to hold on with the power of [F] my prayers.
[A] You can't fight the rumor, [D] you can't hide [Gm] it when you're young.
[Bbm] [F] [C] Once I'll rule [Bb] my state, [F] once I'll rule [Bb] [F] my [Bb] state, [Bbm] to this is [Bb] the fame [F] of the past.
[Bb]
[F] Once I'll [Bb]
rule, [F] once [Bb]
[Bbm] I'll, to this is the fame of, this is the fame of, to this is [Bb] the fame of the past.
