Am F C G x2 


verse 1: 
      Am 
I can see it in 
your eyes I can 
F 
hear it in your 
          C 
voice the signs are 
obvious that all we 
G 
had has run its course 
      Am 
and I don't mind giving 
                     F 
up the upper hand in this 
little charade cuz I've 
 C 
spent too many nights 

here on the floor 
        G 
waiting for something 
inside you to change 

 
Am                 C 
don't look back in anger 
       F 
now is all that you can 
G       Am 
say cuz anger is all I 
C              G 
got to keep me warm when 
        F         Am 
you're away and I know 
             F 
that this is nothing new 
      C              G   F 
but tonight is all I know 
   Am 
disconnect myself from 
     C 
your memory and never 
G       F        Em 
feel anything at all 
   F           Am 
to justify the thought 
               G 
of words don't mean 
            C 
anything to me cuz 
     F       G  Am F C G Am F C G 
I've cut you off 



verse 2: 
   Am 
so here we stand and 
face each other we've 
F 
got nothing to say 
  C 
a flashback to another 
          G 
time when silence was 
a welcomed friend 
        Am 
now I'm sorry I can 
never really say all 
    F 
the things going on 
               C 
inside my head silence 
is a justified expression 
              G 
of my war now nothing 
is like it was before 



Am                 C 
don't look back in anger 
       F 
now is all that you can 
G       Am 
say cuz anger is all I 
C              G 
got to keep me warm 
     F       Em 
when you're away 
     F 
when all your words 
    Am 
and now you're at 
      G 
don't mean anything 
   C       F       G 
to me I've cut you off

Bridge: 
    Am 
its easy to forget 
your face and it's 
F 
easy to survive in 
               C 
this place without 
            G 
you without you I 
     Am 
just comb my hair 
and wash my face 
      F 
keep straight ahead 
and keep my pace 
      C 
Don't think about 
nothing I am gonna 
   G 
be alright well 
  Am 
I got my friends 
I got my pen I got a  
F 
million distractions 
to keep me warm and

I all I know is that 
           G 
it will be alright 
and I'll be alright
