G          Gsus4 
Eyes open, slow motion 
 G 
Out of bed no kiss good morning 
 G             Gsus4 
Wheels rolling down the driveway 
 G                             C 
Without a ring hand waving my way 

It's another shade of gray 
                      G       Gsus4   G 
Another rainy day in paradise 
 

 
G         Gsus4 
No flowers on the counter 
 G 
Just footsteps in and out of 
 G            Gsus4 
These hallways and doorframes 
 G                                        C 
You stumble through in the midnight hour-ours 

While I'm on my knees and praying 
                               G     Gsus4    G 
Lord, is there anything worth saving 
 

 
   D 
I know we made a promise 
    Em 
In sickness and in health 
             C 
But I think God would rather watch us

Walk away than walk through hell 

       D 
'Cause we did all our damage 
        Em        D/F#    C 
Before death could do us part 
                  Cm     G   Gsus4   G 
For worse or for better off 
 

 
 G             Gsus4 
Cold shoulder, cold arms 
 G 
Barely beating broken hearts 
 G           Gsus4 
Can't try to hold on 
G 
To a flame dying in the dark 

C 
 We already know we're gone 
                          G 
We don't have to say goodbye 
         Gsus4        G 
It's too late, can't say we didn't try

I know we made a promise

 D                Am 
Too young to know to have to hold 
     C                        Cm 
Can turn into two left hands letting go
