Verse 1
[A] [F#m6]
All I can ever be to you is a darkness that we know
[Dmaj7] [C#m7] [Bm7]
And this regret I got accustomed to
[A] [F#m6]
Once it was so right when we were at our high
[Dmaj7] [C#m7] [Bm7]
Waiting for you in the hotel at night
[A] [F#m6]
I knew I hadn't met my match but every moment we could snatch
[Dmaj7] [C#m7] [Bm7]
I dont know why I got so attached
[A] [F#m6]
It' s my responsibility and you dont owe nothing to me
[Dmaj7] [C#m7] [Bm7]
But to walk away, I have no capacity
Chorus
[D] [Bm7]
He walks away,
[C#m7] [F#m7]
the sun goes down
[D] [Bm7]
He takes the day
[C#m7] [F#m7]
but I'm grown
[D] [Bm7]
And in your way
[C#m7] [F#m7]
in this blue shade
[Bm7] [D]
My tears dry on their own
Verse 2
[A] [F#m6]
I dont understand, why do I stress the man
[Dmaj7] [C#m7] [Bm7]
When there's so many better things at hand
[A] [F#m6]
We could a never had it all, we had to hit a wall
[Dmaj7] [C#m7] [Bm7]
So this is inevitable withdrawal
[A] [F#m6]
Even if I stop wanting you, a perspective pushes through
[Dmaj7] [C#m7] [Bm7]
I' ll be some next man' s other woman soon
[A] [F#m6]
I cannot play myself again, I should just be my own best friend
[Dmaj7] [C#m7] [Bm7]
Not **** myself in the head with stupid men
Chorus
[D] [Bm7]
He walks away,
[C#m7] [F#m7]
the sun goes down
[D] [Bm7]
He takes the day
[C#m7] [F#m7]
but I'm grown
[D] [Bm7]
And in your way
[C#m7] [F#m7]
in this blue shade
[Bm7] [D]
My tears dry on their own
Bridge
[D] [D]
So we are history, your shadow covers me
[D] [D]
The sky above, a blaze
Verse 3
[A] [F#m6]
I wish I could sing no regrets and no emotional debts
[Dmaj7] [C#m7] [Bm7]
'Cause as we kiss goodbye the sun sets
[A] [F#m6]
So we are history, the shadow covers me
[Dmaj7] [C#m7] [Bm7]
The sky above a blaze that only lovers see
Chorus
[D] [Bm7]
He walks away,
[C#m7] [F#m7]
the sun goes down
[D] [Bm7]
He takes the day
[C#m7] [F#m7]
but I'm grown
[D] [Bm7]
And in your way
[C#m7] [F#m7]
in this blue shade
[Bm7] [D]
My tears dry on their own
[D] [Bm7]
He walks away,
[C#m7] [F#m7]
the sun goes down
[D] [Bm7]
He takes the day
[C#m7] [F#m7]
but I'm grown
[D] [Bm7]
And in your way
[C#m7] [F#m7]
in this blue shade
[Bm7] [D]
My tears dry on their own
