[Intro Fill]
,
[Chorus]
I never pictured us this way
I m running out of words to save our love
To save our love
Its 12 past 4 and I m awake
I m trying hard to live up to my name
And just move on
[Verse 1] (Muted strings played in up/down strokes in-between each chord, the
chords above each word represents
the accented down-stroke. Just listen to the rhythm of the song).
Come on!
Its running in my head
Hallucinating things I never said
They re haunting me
And you,
You must be heaven sent
Oh how much more of my time will I spend
Relenting you?
And I
I have a, I have a secret to tell (its hard to find my way through all this dark)
That I
I ll make it, I ll make it through your hell (the silent treatment is tearing me apart)
You re killing me
[Pre-Chorus]( In this section I use Barre-Chords, I would highly recommend it,
once again listen for the rhythm).
I ve been hoping (I ve been hoping)
I ve been praying (I ve been praying for)
For light to come
and melt this snow
I ll be waiting (I ll be waiting)
While you re moving on (While you re moving on)
You think you re right
But tonight I ll prove you wrong

[Chorus]
I never pictured us this way
I m running out of words to save our love
To save our love
Its 12 past 4 and I m awake
I m trying hard to live up to my name
And just move on
[Verse 2](Same muted style as verse 1, listen for rhythm.)
Again
Its screaming in my head
The songs from yesterday we never had
Your subtlety
Grows worse
With every word you say
The pressure s getting stronger day by day
I don t believe
You will ever stop to see
The life that I m leading
Is it as easy as it may seem?
Instead your doubts keep growing
Oh but I m not going
You re everything
That I despise in me
[Pre-Chorus]
I ve been hoping (I ve been hoping)
I ve been praying (I ve been praying for)
For light to come
and melt this snow
I ll be waiting (I ll be waiting)
While you re moving on (While you re moving on)
You think you ve won
But tonight I ll prove you wrong
[Bridge](Using a mix of Barre-Chords as well as regular).
All this time
I ve strived to find the way to fix our song
(Where did I go wrong?)
Fight the tide, in time I ll find a way to fix myself
I m breaking the bonds, I m severing the ties, so I won t drown
This time
You ll see
The doubts in me
Are fading as the
darkness dies
You ll realize
, , ,
Exactly who I am
, , ,
Exactly who I am
[Pre-Chorus]
I ve been hoping (I ve been hoping)
I ve been praying (I ve been praying for)
For light to come
and melt this snow
I ll be waiting (I ll be waiting)
While you re moving on (While you re moving on)
This feels so right
Like tonight I can t go wrong
[Chorus]
I never pictured us this way
I m running out of words to save our love
To save our love
Its 12 past 4 and I m awake
Never thought I d live up to my name
But it s just begun
