Verse 1
[D6] [G#m7b5]
All I can ever be to you, is a darkness that we knew,
[Gmaj7] [F#m7] [Em9] [D/F#] [G] [E/G#]
And this regret I got ac-customed to.
[D6] [G#m7b5]
Once it was so right, when we were at our high,
[Gmaj7] [F#m7] [Em9] [D/F#] [G] [E/G#]
Waiting for you in the ho-tel at night.
Verse 2
[D6] [G#m7b5]
I knew I hadn't met my match, but every moment we could snatch.
[Gmaj7] [F#m7] [Em9] [D/F#] [G] [E/G#]
I don't know why I got so attached.
[D6] [G#m7b5]
It's my responsibility, and you don't owe nothing to me,
[Gmaj7] [F#m7] [Em9] [F#m7]
But to walk away; I have no ca-pacity.
Chorus 1
[G] [Em] [F#m] [Bm]
He walks a-way; the sun goes down.
[G] [Em] [F#m] [Bm]
He takes the day, but I'm grown.
[G] [Em] [F#m] [Bm]
And in your grey, in this blue shade,
[E7] [F#m] [G]
My tears dry on their own.
Verse 3
[D6] [G#m7b5]
I don't understand; why do I stress a man,
[Gmaj7] [F#m7] [Em9] [D/F#] [G] [E/G#]
When there's so many better things at hand?
[D6] [G#m7b5]
We could a never had it all; we had to hit a wall,
[Gmaj7] [F#m7] [Em9] [D/F#] [G] [E/G#]
So this is in-evita-ble withdrawal.
Verse 4
[D6] [G#m7b5]
Even if I stop wanting you, a per-spective pushes through,
[Gmaj7] [F#m7] [Em9] [D/F#] [G] [E/G#]
I'll be some next man's other woman soon.
[D6] [G#m7b5]
I can't play myself again, I should just be my own best friend,
[Gmaj7] [F#m7] [Em9] [F#m7]
Not fuck myself in the head with stupid men.
Chorus 2
[G] [Em] [F#m] [Bm]
He walks a-way; the sun goes down.
[G] [Em] [F#m] [Bm]
He takes the day, but I'm grown.
[G] [Em] [F#m] [Bm]
And in your grey, in this blue shade,
[E7] [F#m] [G]
My tears dry on their own.
Bridge 1
[G/A]
So we are history; your shadow covers me, the sky above, a blaze...
Chorus 3
[F#sus4] [F#] [Bm7]
He walks away; the sun goes down.
[G]
He takes the day, but I'm grown.
[A7]
And in your grey, in this blue shade, my tears dry on their own.
Verse 5
[D6] [G#m7b5]
I wish I could say no regrets, and no e-motional debts,
[Gmaj7] [F#m7] [Em9] [D/F#] [G] [E/G#]
'Cos as we kiss good-bye the sun sets.
[D6] [G#m7b5]
So we are history; the shadow covers me,
[Gmaj7] [F#m7] [Em9] [F#m7]
The sky above a blaze that only lovers see.
Chorus 4
[G] [Em] [F#m] [Bm]
He walks a-way; the sun goes down.
[G] [Em] [F#m] [Bm]
He takes the day, but I'm grown.
[G] [Em] [F#m] [Bm]
And in your grey, in this blue shade,
[E7] [F#m] [G]
My tears dry on their own.
Chorus 5
[G] [Em] [F#m] [Bm]
He walks a-way; the sun goes down.
[G] [Em] [F#m] [Bm]
He takes the day, but I'm grown.
[G] [Em] [F#m] [Bm]
And in your grey, in this blue shade,
[E7] [F#m] [G]
My tears dry on their own.
Chorus 6
[G] [Em] [F#m] [Bm]
He walks a-way; the sun goes down.
[G] [Em] [F#m] [Bm]
He takes the day, but I'm grown.
[G] [Em] [F#m] [Bm]
And in your grey, in this blue shade,
[G] [Em] [F#m] [Bm]
My tears dry...
