INTRO: 2 X (A  C#m) 
VERSE 1 
A                     C#m   
I'm so tired of being here 
A                       C#m  
suppressed by all of my childish fears 
A 
and if you have to leave 
  C#m   
I wish that you could just leave 
A 
because your presence still lingers here 
C#m 
and it won't leave me alone 
 
Pre-Chorus: 
F#m      C#m 
   These wounds won't seem to heal 
F#m      C#m 
    this pain is just too real 
F#m     C#m                E 
there's just too much that time cannot erase 
 
F#m      D         E         C#m 
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears 
F#m        D          E          C#m 
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears 
F#m      D         E            C#m 
And I've held your hand through all of these years 
F#m        D     E           A  C#m  A  C#m 
but you still have all of me 

 
 
VERSE 2 
A                    C#m 
You used to captivate me by your resonating light 
A                         C#m  
but now I'm bound by the life you left behind 
A                   C#m 
Your face it haunts my once pleasant dreams 
A                         C#m 
your voice it chased away all the sanity in me 
 
Pre-Chorus 
 
F#m      C#m 
   These wounds won't seem to heal 
F#m      C#m 
    this pain is just too real 
F#m     C#m                E 
there's just too much that time cannot erase 
 
F#m      D         E         C#m 
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears 
F#m        D          E          C#m 
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears 
F#m      D         E            C#m 
And I've held your hand through all of these years 
F#m        D     E           A  C#m  A  C#m 
but you still have all of me 

 
BRIDGE: 
D             F#m              E                 D 
I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone 
F#m                     C#m 
but though you're still with me 
D             E           F#m   D   E   C#m 
I've been alone all along 
 
F#m      D         E         C#m 
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears 
F#m        D          E          C#m 
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears 
F#m      D         E            C#m 
And I've held your hand through all of these years 
F#m        D     E           A  C#m  A  C#m 
but you still have all of me
