Verse 1
(A major) We (Asus4) (D major) (B minor) (D major) (A major) (D major) (B minor)
(D major) went back to (A major) the shore (D major) (A major)
For the crash of the waves
I love that (D major) sound and the curi (A major) ous
(Esus4) com (A major) fort we found (D major) in each other
Just like (A major) we did back in (D major) the day (A major)
Verse 2
And the crackling cloud (D major) s
Of a storm out at sea (A major)
And you broke me down just by
leaning a little bit closer to me
And yet still somehow leaning away

Verse 3
Well, nobody told (B minor) me
(G major) Just how badly I'd (D major) grieve (A major)
That I'd dig through my past (B minor)
That I'd keep looking back (G major)
To find out (D major) who I wanted to (A major) be
Verse 4
(D major) Have I forgotten
How I let (A major) myself feel?
How the slightest (G major) inflections
(A major) Were (D major) like cuts (A major) that don't heal? (D major) (A major)
Verse 5
And (D major) don't be mistaken
That was true, (A major) (Asus4) I (A major) be lieve (D major)
I was something, (G major) I swear it (B minor)
Before life (A major) got the better of
me
(D major) (B minor) (D major) (B minor)
Verse 6
I think I know (A major) how you felt (D major) (A major)
I didn't know how to leave
(D major) But looking (A major) back (D major) it was easy (A major) to
think you'd (D major) be better (A major) off
But I shouldn't have (D major) left you that (A major) way
Verse 7
Without saying it right (D major)
Or even saying it wrong (A major)
I just moved on, (D major)
ripped you out (B minor) of my chest
And I picked up and left
And just (A major) like a ghost I was gone
Verse 8
Well, nobody told (B minor) me
(G major) Come on, kid, take your time (D major)
(A major) Don't go rushing too (B minor) fast
'Cause if you lose your path (G major)
It's (D major) gonna be so hard to find
Verse 9
(D major) Have I forgotten
How I let (A major) myself feel?
(D major) How the slightest (G major) inflections
(D major) Were like cuts (A major) that don't heal?
Verse 10
And (D major) don't be mistaken
That was true, I believe
I was (B minor) something, I swear it
Before life (A major) got the better of me (D major)
Verse 11
Life is hard (G major)
Just a series (B minor) of battle scars (D major)
(Asus4) From some fight (A major) s we (D major) won
And some fights we (G major) lost
In a (B minor) war that we never signed (D major) on (A major) for
(B minor) We keep holding our head (G major) s high
(B minor) Or hold each other and just (Asus4) cry
And (A major) nobody's (D major) (G major) wrong
And no lines are drawn
And everyone's here
(G minor) And nobody's gone
Verse 12
I was something, (D major) I swear it
Before life got the better
Before (B minor) life (G major) got the better
(D major) Before life (G major) got (A major) the better (D major) (G major) of me
