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

C# G#
Whoa whoa
[Interlude]
A#m C#
[Verse]
A#m C#
1000 miles away
F#
There's nothing left to say
C# G#
But so much left that I don't know
A#m C#
We never had a choice
F#
This world is too much noise
C#
It takes me under
G# A#m~
It takes me under once again
[Interlude]
A#m C# G#
[Bridge]
A#m C# G#
I don't hate you
A#m C# G#
I don't hate you no
