[E] [C#m] [E]
[A] [E]
I used to think one day we'd tell the story [A] of us
How we met and the sparks flew [E] instantly
And people [B] would say they're the lucky [A] ones
I
[E] used to know [B] my place was the spot next [A] to you
Now I'm searching the room for a new [E] DC
Cause lately I [B] don't even know what page [A] you're on
[B] Oh, simple [C#m] complications, [E]
[A] miscommunications
Lead [E] to [A] fallout, so many things that I wish you [B] knew
So many walls up I can't break [E] through
Now I'm standing alone [B] in a crowded [A] room
And you're not speaking
[E] And I'm dying to [B] know, is it killing [A] you like it's killing me?
[C#m] I don't know what [B] to say, it seems to twist [E] up me
But it all broke [A] down
[C#m] And the story of us [B] looks a lot like a [A] tragedy now
Next [B] chapter
[E] [C#m] [E]
[A]
[E] How'd we end up this [B] way?
Seeing me [A] nervously pulling my clothes and trying to look [E] busy
And you're doing [B] your best to avoid [A] me
I'm
[E] starting to think [B] one day I'll tell the story [A] of us
How I was losing my mind when I saw [E] you here
But you held your [B] pride like you should've [A] held me
[B] Oh, I'm scared to [C#m] see the [E] ending
Why are [A] we pretending this [E] is nothing?
[A] I tell you I miss you but I don't know how
[B] I've never heard silence quite this [E] loud
Now I'm standing [B] alone in a crowded [A] room
And you're not speaking
[E] And I'm dying to know, [B] is it killing [A] you like it's killing me?
I [C#m] don't know what [B] to say, it seems to twist [E] up me
But it all broke [A] down
[C#m] And the story of us [B] looks a lot like a tragedy [A] now

[B] [C#m]
[A]
[E] If we're looking like a [A] contest
Or who can act like they care less
[C#m] But I looked better [B] when you were on [A] my side
[E] The battle's in your hands [A] now
But I would lay my armor down
[C#m] If you'd say [B] you'd rather love [A] than fight
So many things that you wish I knew
[B] But the story of us might be ending [E] soon
Now I'm standing alone in a crowded [A] room
And you're not speaking
[E] And I'm dying to [B] know, is it killing [A] you like it's killing me?
[C#m] I don't know what [B] to say, it seems to twist [E] up me
But it all [A] broke down
[C#m] And the story of us [B] looks a lot like a tragedy [A] now
Now I'm standing [E] [B]
[A] with my speaking
[E] And I'm dying [B] to know, is it killing [A] you like it's killing me?
I [C#m] don't know what [B] to say, it seems to twist [E] up me
