verse 1 
C/G             G 
Summer rain its getting dark 
C/G             G                 
Emptiness will never pass 
Am         F 
Thyme and rosemary 
Am         F 
Trapped by memories 

C/G             G 
Fairy lights and plastic guns 
C/G             G 
Like two lovers on the run 
Am         F 
Cardboard aeroplanes 
Am         F 
Police and bloodstains 

C/G        G 
I can hear the clock downstairs 
C/G        G 
Takes fear to be scared 
Am         F 
I made a life for you 
Am             F 
But you just rode on through 


   C/G          G 
And that's the last night I 
C/G      G 
Give to you before I die 
Am      F 
I'm not sorry that I 
Am      F 
I'm not sorry that I tried 
   C/G         G 
And that's the last time I 
C/G       G 
Saw the light behind your eyes 
Am         F            Am 
Future's coming for us now 
    F 
In this house

verse 2 
C/G      G 
You can go your separate ways 
C/G       G 
But these shadows will remain 
Am         F 
This is hard without you 
Am         F 
And its no fun without you 

C/G        G 
Printed flyers of black and white 
C/G      G 
Faded jeans no much too tight 
Am         F 
A box of broken strings 
Am         F 
Are left there with your things 

C/G     G 
Dying bomb and smartly dressed 
C/G      G 
You walked out of love and theft 
Am                F 
He stopped the flames for you 
Am            F 
But you just rode on through 

 
   C/G          G 
And that's the last night I 
C/G      G 
Give to you before I die 
Am      F 
I'm not sorry that I 
Am      F 
I'm not sorry that I tried 
   C/G         G 
And that's the last time I 
C/G       G 
Saw the light behind your eyes 
Am         F            Am 
Future's coming for us now 
    F 
In this house 


Bridge 

C/G      G 
I was a cowboy running 
C/G      G 
To my mother's arms 
Am    F                Am              F 
I saved the world with penny sweets and plastic guns 

C/G            G 
Soon there's a cowboy running  
C/G   G 
Into my arms 
Am        F 
See the shadow 
Am       F  
See how far we've come 


C/G       G   C/G 
And its over now 
     G     Am   F 
Its over now 

Am      F 

C/G            G        C/G 
And this will all fall down 
       
           G         Am     F 
This will all fall down 

Am      F 

 
   C/G          G 
And that's the last night I 
C/G      G 
Give to you before I die 
Am      F 
I'm not sorry that I 
Am      F 
I'm not sorry that I tried 
   C/G         G 
And that's the last time I 
C/G       G 
Saw the light behind your eyes 
Am         F            Am 
Future's coming for us now
