Tom: Eb
Eb Bb
Back doors they’re never that easy
Db Ab
And sure they budge but never for me
Eb Bb Db Ab
I’ve dug deep too deep to find my way out of this town
Eb Bb
In high school you never quite knew me
Db Ab
I guess that means we’re not meant to be
Eb Bb
Where’d this go? I didn’t think so
Db Ab Bb
Sit back and watch how far we go
[Chorus]
Eb Ab
Did you find a way to compromise?
Cm Ab
Did you fix your problems or forget to solve them?
Bb Eb Ab
And your memories are now the words you read
Cm
Times have changed, but not for me
Ab Bb
Let’s just forget how I wrote your story
Gm D Eb
[Verse 2]
Bb
Hey you’re standing on a tightrope
Db Ab Eb
Look down and know this is all she wrote
Bb Db
Hows it feel to be hanging on?
Ab
Letting go sounds good until you start to fall
Fm Ab Eb
And I know we’re staying here to find
F
A simple song, a simple line
Ab Eb
On a path that leads us blind
Bb
Taking words of spite to turn them into rhymes
[Chorus]
Eb Ab
Did you find a way to compromise?
Cm Ab
Did you fix your problems or forget to solve them?
Bb Eb Ab
And your memories are now the words you read
Cm7 C
Times have changed, but not for me
Ab Bb
Let’s just forget how I wrote your story
Eb Ab C Bb Eb
[Bridge]
Cm
We played ball late in the park
Bb Eb
You stayed still til’ after dark
Bb Eb
I asked if we could stay the same
Cm
The look in your eyes said you’d already changed
Dm Eb
I stand for things that don’t stand for me
F Cm
But the harder I try the further that they seem
Dm Eb
We all break through but you break me
F Eb
Let’s all sing along our story rests in piece
Bb Cm Ab
Eb
Our story rests in peace…
Bb Cm Ab
Eb
Our story rests in peace…
Eb
Our story rests in peace…
Eb
Our story rests in peace…
