              Intro:
Am C Em F 
Am C Em F 
 
 Am        C           Em          F 
 Take your eyes off of me so I can live 
     Am       C               Em                F 
 I'm far too ashamed to do it with you watching me 
 Am            C               Em          F 
 This is never ending, we have been here before 
     Am                C                   Em          F 
 But I can't stay this time 'cause I don't love you anymore 
 
         Am             C 
 Please, stay where you are 
            Em     F 
 Don't come any closer 
       Am                C 
 Don't try to change my mind 
            Em           F 
 I'm being cruel to be kind 
 
  
         F    G7          Am  C 
 I can't love you in the dark 
                     F G7   Am  C 
 It feels like we're oceans apart 
         F                   G7 
 There's so much space between us 
             Am        C 
 Maybe we're already defeated  
   F  G7 
 Ehhh.. 
            Am         Em C 
 Everything changed me 
 
 
 Am             C                 Em              F 
 You have given me something that I cant live without 
     Am         C               Em               F 
 you mustn't underestimate that when you are in doubt 
     Am             C             Em             F 
 but I don't want to carry on like everything is fine 
     Am           C           Em                F 
 The longer we ignore it, the more that we will fight 
 
        Am          C 
 Please don't fall apart 
         Em                 F 
 I can't face your breaking heart 
     Am            C 
 I'm trying to be brave 
       Em           F 
 Stop asking me to stay 
 
 
         F    G7          Am  C 
 I can't love you in the dark 
                     F G7   Am  C 
 It feels like we're oceans apart 
         F                   G7 
 There's so much space between us 
             Am        C 
 Maybe we're already defeated  
   F  G7 
 Ehhh.. 
            Am         Em C 
 Everything changed me 
 
                 
                F 
 We are not the only ones 
           G7 
 I don't regret a thing 
       Em 
 Every word I said 
               Am 
 You know I'll always mean 
           F 
 It is the world to me 
              G7 
 That you are in my life 
       Dm 
 But I want to live and not just survive 
 
F G7 Am C 
F G7 Am C 
 
                    F    G7          Am  C 
 That's why I can't love you in the dark 
                     F G7   Am  C 
 It feels like we're oceans apart 
         F                   G7 
 There's so much space between us 
             Am        C 
 Maybe we're already defeated  
          F  G7 
 'cause ehhh.. 
            Am         Em C 
 Everything changed me 
     F 
 And I... 
 G7                    Am        Am 
 I don't think you can save me
