=Verse 1=
[D]The feeling starts to sink in,
But it's beginning to r[D5]ust[E5],[D5] [C#5] [D5]
[G]Still hanging onto the things that we dis[Bm]cussed,
But the point that was [A]made isn't said an[G]d done...
Now the [D]sun shines so bright, but it won't shine for you,
You remi[G]nd me of rain in July
And the gloom that I [Bm]felt for a year,
And the cl[A]ouds are always shaped just l[G]ike you
But there's a parting [Em]lig[Fm]ht.[G]..
=Chorus=
[D]I always told you that someday
I would be packing my bags and I [G]would be on my way,
[D]You always laughed in my face,
And made the world seem so grey,
Lay in the bed that you [G]made
So I can finally s[D]ay that I'm fine,
You can just say "whatever,"
I won't change my mind 'cuz I [G]know that I'm better off,
[D]But I am cursed with a staircase wit,
Always find[G] the words when it's too late to let them s[Bm]lip
=Bridge 1=
[Bm]Don't judge me on my [D]bad habits,
I could [Bm]pick out [G]every flaw of [D]yours,
And unearth all y[G]our imperfections.
[Bm]Beneath the surf[G]ace I have s[Bm]een,
[Bm]The ugly tr[G]uth behind the beauty qu[D]een...
=Chorus=
[D]I always told you that someday
I would be packing my bags and I [G]would be on my way,
[D]You always laughed in my face,
And made the world seem so grey,
Lay in the bed that you [G]made
So I can finally s[D]ay that I'm fine,
You can just say "whatever,"
I won't change my mind 'cuz I [G]know that I'm better off,
[D]But I am cursed with a staircase wit,
Always find[G] the words when it's too late to let them s[Bm]lip
=Bridge 2=
[D] [A] [D]
[D]Held it back,
Lost the nerve,
Was too s[G]cared to talk when you [D]gave me your hand
And you g[G]ave me your heart,
[D]When you should have [A]kept it to your[G]self
[D]You should have k[A]ept it to your[G]self,
[D]I wish you'd k[G]ept it [A]to yours[G]elf
