Tears Dry On Their Own

verse 1 
E 
All I can ever be to you 
Is a darkness that we knew 
A                         F#m        A 
And this regret I've got accustomed to 
  E 
Once it was so right 
 A#m 
When we were at our height 
A                      F#m       A 
Waiting for you in the hotel at night 
E 
I knew I hadn't met my match 
            A 
But every moment we could snatch 
                        F#m  A 
I don't know why I got so attached 
        E 
It's my responsibility 
                             A 
And you don't owe nothing to me 
                            F#m 
But to walk away I have no capacity 


[Chorus]
A 
He walks away 
B 
The sun goes down 
A             F#m    B 
He takes the day but I'm grown 
    A         F#m          B    C#m 
And in your way, in this blue shade 
   F#m       E         A 
My tears dry on their own 

verse 2 
E 
I don't understand 
                     A#m 
Why do I stress the man 
                  A 
When there's so many bigger things at hand 
E 
We could a never had it all 
We had to hit a wall 
                A       F#m  A 
So this is inevitable withdrawal 
      B 
Even if I stop wanting you 
    A#m 
A perspective pushes through 
     A                         F#m   A 
I'll be some next man's other woman soon 
          E 
I can not play myself again 
              A#m 
I should just be my own best friend 
    A                            F#m     G#m 
Not fuck myself in the head with stupid men 
 

[Chorus]
A 
He walks away 
B 
The sun goes down 
A             F#m    B 
He takes the day but I'm grown 
    A         F#m          B    C#m 
And in your way, in this blue shade 
   F#m       E         A 
My tears dry on their own 

Bridge 
    E 
So we are history 
Your shadow covers me 
    E 
The sky above ablaze 

Solo 
G#m C#m 
G#m C#m 
C#m B 

verse 3 
E 
I wish I could say no regrets 
A#m 
And no emotional debts 
A                             F#m  A 
Cause as we kiss goodbye the sun sets 
   E 
So we are history 
       A#m 
The shadow covers me 
    A           E                 F#m  E 
The sky above ablaze that only lovers see 


[Chorus]
A 
He walks away 
B 
The sun goes down 
A             F#m    B 
He takes the day but I'm grown 
    A         F#m          B    C#m 
And in your way, in this blue shade 
   F#m       E         A 
My tears dry on their own
