[Verse]
Bm
It kills me not to know this
D
but I've all but just forgotten
G
What the color of her eyes were
D A
and her scars or how she got them
Bm
As the telling signs of age rain down
D
a single tear is dropping
G
Through the valleys of an aging face
D A
that this world has forgotten
[Interlude]
Bm D G D A 2x
[Verse]
Bm D
There is no reconciliation that will put me in my place
G
And there is no time like the present
D A
to drink these draining seconds
Bm
But seldom do these words ring true
D
when I'm constantly failing you
G
Like walls that we just can't break through
D A
until we disappear
[Pre-Chorus]
G
So tell me now
A G
If this ain't love then how do we get out?
A~
cause' I don't know
[Chorus]
Bm
That's when she said I don't hate you boy
D
I just want to save you
G D
while there's still something left to save
A Bm
That's when I told her I love you girl
D
But I'm not the answer
G
for the questions that you still have
D A
Whoa whoa
[Interlude]
Bm D G D A
[Verse]
Bm
But the day pressed on like crushing weights
D
For no man does it ever wait
G
Like memories of dying days
D A
That deafen us like hurricanes
Bm
Bathed in flames we held the brand
D
Uncurled the fingers in your hand
G
Pressed into the flesh like sand
D A
Now do you understand?
[Pre-Chorus]
G
So tell me now
A G
If this ain't love then how do we get out?
A~
cause' I don't know
[Chorus]

[Verse]
Bm D
1000 miles away
G
There's nothing left to say
D A
But so much left that I don't know
Bm D
We never had a choice
G
This world is too much noise
D
It takes me under
A Bm~
It takes me under once again
[Interlude]
