The Exit

Here I Go

The Exit


Tom: Em

Em     D         C
Here I go with another
         Em      D      C
Sorry attempt to stay behind
Em         D              C
And if the water pulls me under
          Em         D       C
Know that I won’t forget the time


[Verse 1]
Em          D                 C
Back home I was nothing but a fool for you
Em             D                            C
And as we grew up, we lost some things that we held true


[Verse 2]
Em            D                     C
But I’ve had enough, am I the kid I used to be?
Em               D                        C
And if he looked up, would he be proud of what he sees?


[Pre-Chorus]
Em     D
Let go of
                     C
Those promises we’ve broken
                C
(Promises we’ve broken)
Em     D
Let go of
                     C
Those promises we’ve broken
                      C
(Those promises we’ve broken)


[Chorus]
Em     D         C
Here I go with another
         Em      D      C
Sorry attempt to stay behind (Oh God I feel so thoughtless)
Em         D              C
And if the water pulls me under
          Em         D       C
Know that I won’t forget the time


[Verse 3]
Em                  D                C
Back then I thought nothing could compare to you
Em                D                     C
Outlined in gold, drenched in shades of afternoon


[Bridge]
Em                   D         C
Is this really where you would want me?
   Em               D        C
Or am I unprepared, stuck in between?
     Em        D          C
Just stop if I waste your time
   C
Pretend that you don’t mind
       Em            D         C
‘Cause now I’ve been trying to lie
        C
But you like what you find


[Chorus]
Em     D         C
Here I go with another
         Em      D      C
Sorry attempt to stay behind (Oh God I feel so thoughtless)
Em         D              C
And if the water pulls me under
          Em         D       C
Know that I won’t forget the time


[Outro]
Em   D                 C
If I knew when we were younger
            Em D  C
That we all grow apart
Em          D             C
Then maybe now I wouldn’t wonder
             Em       D         C
If I made the most of this from the start
